At my baby shower, they played the lovely game of "how many squares of toilet paper does it take to get around her belly?" While they were all pulling their sheets of toilet paper, one lady asks how much weight I've gained. DH informs everyone in the room I've gained about 30 lbs. Thanks, dear. I was already feeling so great about my appearance and the fact that it took 14 sheets to get around my belly.
I'm getting induced next Monday, and today I'm sitting with SO and say "Write down anything you want me to get from the store, I'm going grocery shopping at the end of the week."
He asked why I was going then, so I responded "Because I won't want to next week."
He legitimately didn't understand why I might not want to go grocery shopping days after delivering LO. I'm officially worried.
This afternoon DH and I were sitting in bed watching tv while DS napped. He pauses the tv looks at me and says "I think we should change the baby's name. I like Thea. Let's change it." Seriously?! I asked if he was serious and he said "yeah let's just change it." We have had her name picked out for MONTHS! I have special ordered name banners, clothes, etc. Everyone knows her name. Now you want to change it with 18 days to go?!
I asked DH to help me put up some stuff in DD's big girl room this weekend and he said that since he was tired, it wasn't a necessity, and we have SO MUCH time, he wasn't going to do it. And then he didn't. I feel so hurt -- mostly because I cannot physically do these things on my own. So inconsiderate and jerk-ish of him.

Our friend just sent us an invite to her husband's birthday party which is scheduled for about 10 days after my due date. Before I had a chance to decline the invite he told her we would all three be in attendance. When I got home I asked him if he was being sarcastic with his reply, he looked at me, completely serious, and said no, why? Uhhhhhhh because after pushing the thing out of me (or whatever happens) I probably will not feel like taking our maybe 10 day old baby out in the height of flu season to hang out at a birthday party with a bunch of grubby adults and children. If we're going out anywhere, it's going to be for MY birthday, which is a few days before. I also started to get a little worried...

If it makes you feel better we did the same thing at my shower only with string. And guess whose was the longest and least accurate? SOs. It was literally the size of his wingspand and I nearly slapped him in front of everyone I was so embarrassed (and of course he was not joking, he thought I was that huge).

My husband would be sleeping in a tent outside if he would have pulled that ish... He only talks about me weight with my MIL because she is worried because of my GD but if he disclosed any information about it to anybody else I would be pissed and if he talked about how huge I was and just being a jerk about it I would be even more pissed... Sometimes men are stupid!!! Not always but sometimes I swear they just don't think!!!
This morning, DH decided it was hilarious to make fun of the noises I make while trying to roll over and hoist myself out of bed. He's been calling me a beached seal all day, and apparently likes being punched for it. So obnoxious!
My DH asked today "so, what exactly is inside there?" And pointed to my belly. OMG I looked at him wide eyed and said "uhh...a baby???" He said "no, I mean what's the baby inside?" So we had a conversation on uterus VS stomach etc hahaha

For real? There are adults creating children who still think babies grow inside the stomach? I'm so confused.

Not more confused than I was. Lol. I found he knew the baby was in the uterus just not exactly how. Lol

Still very disconcerting that a grown person about to bring a child into the world doesn't know how it happened...

Think there's a difference between not knowing how it happened and the exact anatomy of a woman's body and how exactly all that works. My DH has 2 masters and a PhD so I don't think he's lacking in the education department. Learn new things everyday!
