2nd Trimester

Anyone else not bothered

When their H does something you can't or won't do?

DH and I used to sit in our hot tub at least weekly over the summer while smoking cigars and having a drink.  I couldn't do that this summer but I would sit out with him (as long as no smoke blew toward me).  I make him coffee a lot of mornings even though I am drinking decaf and regular is one of my favorite things in the world.  It just doesn't bother me when he does stuff I can't even though I really miss some things.

Re: Anyone else not bothered

  • Doesn't bother me in the least! I figure why should he miss out on fun stuff just b/c I can't do it?

  • Me, couldnt care less.

     

  • The only thing that I miss right now is sushi and a beer every once in a while.  Other than that, I'm good. 
  • It doesn't bother me that DH still smokes.  He smokes outside so it doesn't bother me.  While I think he should quit for health reason not because I can't smoke. 

  • It doesn't bother me one bit that my husband gets up at 5:30 for work every morning and I get to wake up whenever I want ;)
  • I don't feel like I'm missing out on much..maybe drinking, but I don't miss it as much as I thought I would.  I used to drink a glass of wine a day before PG.

    In fact, I feel like I can indulge myself more with other things like sleeping more, getting out of cleaning certain things using the PG excuse, eating more, etc.

  • It doesn't bother me when he does stuff that I can't do but I do get jealous when he goes places I can't go. I sometimes miss out on a lot of fun stuff with him and all our friends b/c I can't go. I would never stop him from going but I do get jealous.

  • Meh - Doesn't bother me.  I do long a drink from time to time when he has one.
  • I don't. But I don't want it rubbed in my face either.
  • It doesn't bother me.  I don't want to feel like I'm depriving him because I can't drink or something.  I want him to do things I can't... even though I think he feels bad about it sometimes. 

  • I tease my husband about going sober but guess who reminds him of the wine that seh thinks he's going to love?  And guess who asks if he wants beer while he watches the world series?
  • Not bothered at all.
  • No, it doesn't bother me, although I miss certain things.  Decaf coffee just doesn't taste the same, and oh how I want a glass of wine and a beer!

  • nope, not at all. DH is a stoner and it only bothers me that he gets lazy, not that I can't partake.
  • Nope - doesn't bother me at all!  I just want to partake when he is having drinks!!  I miss wine!!
  • I don't care at all- I think he's more concerned about it than I am.  The only thing I really miss is sushi and honestly I'm fine with eating the "safe" stuff while he has the stuff I really love until after the pregnancy.  I just remind myself how good that first piece of spicy yellowtail is going to taste after the baby is born. 

  • It really depends. In general, it doesn't bother me. When we go to weddings it gets to me a little because he gets drunk and dances and has a stupid-good time and I don't so much. It also bugs me when he gets trashed and I can't even have a drop.

    Overall, him drinking is fine, but don't get hammered right in front of me at a wedding and still make me stay for the whole thing.

  • Doesn't normally bother me, either.  DH actually offered to give up drinking/cigars/sushi in a "show of solidarity", but it seemed kind of silly to expect that of him.  I'll admit though, every once in awhile seeing him having a drink or a spicy tuna roll makes me a smidge envious! 
  • I just miss the wine on the weekends and going to the bars just with my husband. WHen it's a big group, I don't care really. WHen it's just him and I , I do miss it. And I plan on breastfeeding so it will be even longer!
