Poor DH

Not sure he can do anything right lately lol. Anyone else feel like this? I have taken a couple vacation weeks before the baby gets here because my job just isn't pregnancy friendly so I've spent my days tackling all kinds of housework projects. Well it seems that two days later ill go to wherever and DH has thrown clothes on the floor, had soda and not used a coaster, or other things and I blow my lid. I feel bad for him.

Re: Poor DH

  • I can sympathize. I've just wanted to beat DH with a stick lately. He told me the other night he had cleaned while I was out babysitting for a friend and I looked around. Before I left, I'd been doing laundry and writing thank you cards. He moved the cards off the coffee table and onto the side table so that he could lay out books on the coffee table to look through, and then put the clothes I'd folded already at the edge of the bed and let them fall on the floor. So after his "cleaning", I got to put up his books, reorganize my card piles so I could finish that up, and refold and put away the clothes.

    Thaaaaaanks hon.

  • I wouldn't feel bad. It's one thing to do the dishes and then freak out because a single dirty fork and plate shows up in the sink 2 hours later, but another thing entirely when you've cleaned the bedroom only to find dirty clothes all over the place the next morning because SOMEONE couldn't find his belt. One is over-sensitive, the other means he's being a slob. I was laid off at 30 weeks, so I've been home my entire 3rd tri; I have no issue with being responsible for the majority of the housecleaning, laundry, cooking, shopping and general upkeep...but if you spill tortilla chip crumbs all over my freshly mopped kitchen floor and don't even bother to clean them up, well, buddy, you deserve the wrath you get. I am not a maid.
  • I feel like this all the time. Last night I went and had dinner with my parents while DH went to play poker. When he came home, i freaked because he didnt text me enough (not one text in 6 hours-lol!).... i felt so bad for being so ridiculous.

    But the cleaning thing is absurd! My DH always says he cant clean because its not the weekend. Like WTH?? I dont understand that!
