Scale of 1-10...

lincrane · December 2010

1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest!

How awesome if your DH lately? I have been so thankful for him because I feel like I am not my normal self and he has been wonderful! Sometimes I forget to tell him this. (Score for him is 10+)

So tell me your score...and anyone have any great ideas of how to thank our awesome dudes in our life!?

I have to give DH at least a 10 also! He has been so helpful and does everything for me! I called his mom and asked her to send me the recipe to his favorite food she makes. I'm going to surprise him with that but he deserves so much more!

Mine's been a 10 too, couldn't be more thankful for him! He seriously has been stepping up and been so flexible and helpful since I've become an invalid Smile

Can't wait to see him be a great daddy.

I give DH an 8. He has been helping out more and understanding how tired and achy I have been, but I still feel like he doesn't help out as much as most husbands with pregnant wives.

I would say there are several different scales for my DH.

In the daddy department he's a 10+, he's SUPER awesome with our 2 year old and really really helps me out with him everyday.

In the husbandly department he's also a 10+, he is super fun, funny, sexy, thoughtful and loving. He's super awesome!

Now when it comes to the cleanliness department he's about a 2! He is the messiest person I have ever met and it drives me insane! Everything lies where it is dropped. He never picks anything up from off the floor or tables (including dirty used tissues). He never remembers where things are because he will just put something down anywhere (where ever it was most convenient that second he needed to) and will never remember, and we'll have to look EVERYWHERE and then find it in weird places, like his keys in the kitchen cabinet, or his gloves in our sons sock drawer! It takes hours sometimes to find things. Uhh. I can go on and on about all the crazy things he does, but I am the ying to his yang and I am able to find all his missing things and keep the house clean ) I can't say I don't get overwhelmed sometimes when I have to clean up after him, but I'd rather do that for the rest of my life than live a day without him )

I would give him about a 9. He's the best Daddy, DD has him totally wrapped around her little finger. Plus, he's a big help with mostly everything. However, I subtract a point for his snoring that keeps me up half the night

Mine gets a 10, too. He's been doing almost all of the cooking, most of the cleaning, and pretty much everything else around the house. He insists I sit and chill after work and runs around getting me water, tea, whatever I want (or triyng to figure out what I want and bringing it to me without my asking - so cute).

Plus, he talks to the baby constantly! When I get home from work he greets both of us, kisses both of us goodnight, and is always talking to my tummy. It's so, so cute.

I give my DH at perfect 10. He has been helping out around the house more and has been very understanding when I'm too tired to cook dinner. He has also been patient with all my paranoia.

lovesazzie · December 2010

10! He's been doing all the cooking and taking care of our toddler whenever he is home! SO nice.

You ladies make me feel a little guilty but honestly? DH has really disappointed me. He seems to have a hard time understanding what I'm going through and I have an issue with always feeling like he's telling me I've not been good enough for him since getting pregnant. He's not trying to tell me that, it's just the little things he says (especially about getting less sex) that make it hard to truly believe I have his full support. It makes me worry that he'll want to wait a loooooong time before doing this again. To be fair though, things are getting better. I guess I'd give him a 6 and rising...

helenejr · December 2010

DH is probably a 7 and rising. he works 2 jobs and studies so it's hard for him to help out around the house - but i don't think he quite understood how hard the first Tri was for me and i think could have been more supportive - but now i'm feeling well again and a bit less tired we are starting to get on the same page and he is definitely starting to understand and offer help where he can.

casirdms · December 2010

Well I guess I'm in the minority here.

I'm going to say a 4. He is very understanding about my puking constantly, and has been pretty good about going to get me food (though it has to be when he's ready to go get it..). And that's about it.

He is a full time student with no job. He is home everyday by 2PM. I work, then go pick up DD from afterschool care and am home by 5. He will ask me what am I cooking for dinner as soon as I walk in the door and its just frustrating since he's been home and I am exhausted. Earlier this week he did this huff and puff eye-roll thing while getting ready in the morning because he said that I had not washed clothes in a few days and he was running out of things.

And for the years that we have been together, his computer game (WoW) has always been an issue. He spends hours on it a night. I'm talking like from 7P to midnight playing with his buddies. He says this will stop after the new baby is here, but we shall see.
