So dh just made me sad

ImThisBabysMom · October 2011

Totally just made me feel fat and out of shape. I only didn't cry because it pissed me off. Comparing me to his fitness nut friend. Yeah I know she's way healthier than me. I don't care. I take care of my body and my baby. So what if I'm not on a work out binge. I'm pregnant. I can be kinda lazy and I'm pretty sure that's ok.

Totally ok!! He shouldn't be comparing you to anyone.

Is this friend pregnant? I'm sorry he brought it up, not cool. I have no energy to work out either, and I didn't before I got pg. I'd have to say we're probably in the majority!

Haha, I would turn into Pregasaurus if Df said anything like that too me. Too much exercise is bad for baby, that's what my personal trainer told me. All we are required to do is look after ourselves and our babies...good on you for that.

Yes she's 35 weeks. She was a Miss Ohio at some point in time. Yay her. Now she's a fitness guru.

Tell him a great pregnancy exercise is a kick to the groin, so if he wants you to exercise, you'd be happy to try it out on him

Love you KFC!

Well La De Da! Good on her at 35 weeks, but how much did she do when she was feeling yucky and crappy earlier on.

ImThisBabysMom · October 2011

She's been posting pics the whole time. Looks awesome. Makes it hard for us normal women to compete haha. I dont know how she eats right and works out so much. I'm so exhausted all the time.

nzmum · October 2011

Haha, us normal women are in a class all of our own

. I am loving KFC's workout though, sounds rather.....fulfilling.

bio-oesch · October 2011

What a bunch of bull!! I would be livid! Tell him when he's ready to grow your child in his body and deal with all that entails, you'll be glad to make him feel less than. I can't believe it, you should definetly use kfc's workout

I'd be p!ssed. Were you a fitness guru before you were pregnant? If not, I'm pretty sure you aren't even remotely expected to be a fitness nut when you are pregnant. I'm with KFC, too. Her workout sounds satisfying.

TeamHayes · October 2011

Oh shhhh you look great and what is important is that you feel great and you are cooking a healthy baby.

I agree! He shouldn't be comparing you to anyone!

Well pin a rose on her nose! I think he needs a roundhouse kick in the balls.

That was a definite no no! I'm sorry...sometimes our hubbys/men don't understand realization of the situation and open their big mouth!!!

I can't even think about going to a hot humid gym that smells...i'd get sick before I could even start working out! I'm hoping to have more energy and less aversions during the 2nd trimester...but we all need our rest.

I'm really sorry he said that.

Off topic, but I've been wondering... I know you're keeping your identity secret, but what side of Ohio do you live in (if you don't mind me asking). I'm in Ohio too and excited to see another Ohio mom on here. You can PM it to me if you don't mind answering but don't want to put it out on here.

At least you can take comfort knowing that nobody likes an ex-beauty-queen-fitness-guru-who-looks-great-at-35-weeks. No offense to YH's friend, I'm sure she's lovely, but that's just a whole suite of annoying characteristics.

And she would be much less of a frigid beeesh if she ate a damn cheeseburger already I am sure. Need to borrow my cast-iron skillet for your H? Devil

MsCat19 · October 2011

I think you DH should be grateful that you are a healthy and smart and beautiful pregnant woman carrying his child after all you have been through... and then after you reenforce that fact, try KFC's work out plan! Geeked

Sclines2595 · October 2011

My DH does this too!! Drives me nuts! He is a fitness freak -- although he is not in the best shape - he still goes to the gym on a regular basis (3-5 times per week). I started going to his gym and found out a week later I was pregnant. This isn't a normal gym --- we go to CrossFit Maximus -- so we do a lot of Olympic weights and crazy workouts. Needless to say I can't do a lot of the stuff that I used to be able to do. he gets annoyed that I dont go very often and that I dont like to workout anymore. It's frustrating!!!!! He doesn't understand taht I'm etiher 1. EXHAUSTED or 2. NAUSEOUS!

ImThisBabysMom · October 2011

Oh how I love all you ladies!!!

I think he just assumes pregnancy is the same for everyone. So if she can do it, I should be able to. I keep telling him it's not like that. I cried and he felt really bad and proceeded to tell me how great I am in so many ways. I know he didn't mean to be mean, but I have my own feelings about my body and what is going to happen, I don't need to hear it from him too.

It's fine now. I just needed him to understand what an a-hole he was to do that.
