My all time favorite was during my breakdown yesterday "I'm so sorry. I did this to you" Poor guy is feeling guilty that I'm all uncomfortable. I sent him to play poker tonight because I don't want him staring at me waiting for something to happen.
Well, my DH has been thru all this before, but I'm guessing he said some pretty random things last time. This time, he reminds me daily that I look like a torpedo. I'm like, uh, I know, now you know why I'm always in pain! LOL
1) We were discussing whether or not to have the internal exams. He wanted us to because he wanted to "know" if we should be worried about rushing to the hospital. I tried to explain to him that no matter how dialated I might be at the Dr.'s office, it doesn't mean labor is close. His response? "If it doesn't matter whether or not you are dialated, why do you have to be dialated to have the baby?"
2) He's starting a new job and has to work some nights... He mentioned that his schedule would be wacky at first. That's really not a problem as I have 4 months maternity leave and will be able to work around his schedule if I need to get out of the house. He said, "Well, besides, there won't be much for me to do for the first few months... I don't have boobs." Yeah, because babies only eat. They don't need diaper changes or to be rocked or cuddled. And there is no such things as bottles or introducing bottles to the baby.
The thing is, he was totally serious with both of these...not trying to get out of doing anything, just really has no clue everything that goes into taking care of a baby. Boy, will he learn fast!!!
The best, though, is when I'm being off the wall. He just gives me one of his looks and says, "I have no idea what to do with you right now. You are certifiable and completely unreasonable!" Sad thing is...all I can do is laugh and agree...

1) Is that normal? (staring at my linea negra) 2) Wow...Your belly's REALLY hairy! 3) Well...That doesn't look right (staring at the Montgomery's tubercles on my boobs) 4) your nipples are going to get how big?!
In response to me saying that the baby was squirming A LOT, DH (UFC fan) informed me that our unborn son has a cage match in March that he is training for..... LOL, well, that explains it!

Mine claims ours is a hockey player training for the on ice fights... And we have no clue if we're having a boy or a girl. It doesn't matter. Baby is STILL going to play hockey...

Yesterday was our 1 year anniversary, so Dh says to me "You looked so beautiful a year ago," He meant as in on our wedding day, not that now I look like a huge hot mess!!! Haha! I started laughing as soon as he said it
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
yes this is my life. haha. He also asked why my belly button changed colors and if it would ever be normal again... thanks jackas$
DH reminded me forever (still does!) how swollen my lady parts were during labor with DD and what it looked like. I'm like, uh, thanks, way to make me all self-conscious!

I can rememer laying on the couxh and DH asking me if I realized that I had a line on my belly.... Umm yeah I know. I also like when my belly button "popped" and he would rub it and go "it's so soft"
My FI milks cows Sat nights and has related pregnancy to everything he knows about cows, milking them, birthing them and feeding them. At our first appt he was asking the doctor about her tools she uses to get the baby out if it is stuck and comparing that to tieing a chain around a calf and using a skid loader to pull it out. This has been quite the experience with him comparing everything to what he already knows... I might actually miss being pregnant!

HA! Couple of things...first, I grew up on a farm, so this is hilarious to me. 2nd, anyone remember the bumpie who wanted to let her bf deliver her because he worked on a farm and had birthed "tons of calves"???

hahaha YES!!! I was just thinking that as I read this!! So funny! Oh and I am a farmers wife so I understand completely.
My DH was looking at my belly about 2 weeks ago and was commenting how much it's changed and then he said......"yah if your skin were wet, your skin would look very porpoise-like" I remembering saying "WHAT does that mean." He said "I am just not used to you have a belly, it's just so porpoise-like" I am still puzzled by the whole comment. haha

I'd be confused, too... What constitutes "porpoise-like"?

After scheduling my C-section, I attempt to explain everything to DH.
Me: ......and then they'll wrap her up and give her to you so you can show her to me.
DH: huh? seriously? They can't just bring her to you? I've never held a baby that little!
ughhhh! yes sweetie, since I won't be laying on a table being sewn up...
And then, last night....
DH: Wow baby, do you think your nipples could really get any darker? I mean if they did, they'd be black!
Me:
thanks.
