DH annoying comments

My back has been killing me lately...so annoying when I wake up this morning & DH asked how I slept & I say "bad again, my back hurts so much & I can never get comfortable" and his response is "yeah, I know how you feel"

Really?? Are you pregnant ?? How about offering a back massage to the person carrying your child?

Re: DH annoying comments

  • My husband asked why I was thrashing around last night. I to him my legs were restless, my back and hip hurt, I was having a hard time car hung breath and was just so comfortable. He kindly informed me that much if it was in my head. That comment did not go over well. :)

  • That's is so frustrating. My husband gets pinched nerves in his upper back that last a couple days. I've had one in my lower back since 2/16! I can barely walk sometimes but he still says, now you know what it feels like!! No...you don't know what it feels like!!

    But the worst comments are from my mil who thinks I won't make it to April even though my EDD is 4/27. I tell her that would put the baby at or under 36 weeks and that I'm not wishing for that. To which she replies, you don't have a choice when she comes or with technology today it doesn't matter when she's born. YES it does!! YOU don't know when she's coming!! And her theory is based on the fact that my stomach is "huge"! Here are a few possible reasons why.... I have no torso, i have a potentially large baby thanks to wonky blood sugar, and I've gained 30 lbs!! Good lord!!!! I've been needing to vent about her so bad!

  • Wow, I would literally punch DH if he acted this way. He helped put you in this discomfort, so tell him that you want to be pampered. A ten minute rub from him is free, a good prenatal is about $100.
  • I don't know @snmetz7 my DH made a comment the other day he has been paying for ever since. We joke around a lot in a playful way and sometimes it involves our physics, we are both pretty fit and healthy usually. But now I'm 8 months pregnant with twins so when he said "can you get me a glass of water, besides you should move around more, maybe your lose a pound or two" I flipped out. He was immediately sorry and said it was a joke but I'm not letting that go. Idiot!

    My SO and I are both athletic people. Both ran college track (he was a lot more serious than I was, plus he was a distance runner and I was a jumper) so the fact that I've reached 200 pounds when he barely gets over 155... It's just weird, but we joke about it. Unfortunately the other day I mentioned a dream about going bikini shopping and he said "none of that until we do some post baby insanity workouts." Despite being able to joke with him about my weight most of the time, I was not happy about this comment. He apologized later but still.

    Ya, we have those moments. No matter what, it's not cool to joke about a pregnant lady's weight!

  • DH never says anything weight wise, but does tell me that I'm breathing heavily... I'm like well duh, there's a human pushing on my lungs.

  • Not really a comment just a total "this is pointless, I don't care or need this" attitude about the 2 THREE HOUR birthing classes (which included the L&D tour time) which isn't asking much. I'm sorry but I would like to be prepared when I go into labor and I have to do a little more than just hang out and wait for a baby to be placed in my arms. And just because you worked at the hospital as a chaplain doesn't mean you know all about being my coach during delivery. I know he is excited about the baby and understands all the work it'll be for me but I would like to have him not act like it's all just a natural thing your body does and no big deal. I don't think that's really what he thinks but it's the feeling I get. Stupid pregnancy hormones! Hoping L&D is more supported than I'm expecting right now.

    Ok sorry for the long rant!
  • I want to throat punch mine so hard. DD has always hated naps. I will fight with her for HOURS everyday to take one and 99% of the time we get nowhere.

    DH's words today "I don't see what the big deal is, she is already in the full blown terrible twos so how will a nap help anything? You just need more patience, she isn't that bad."

    I very politely told him that I need her to take a nap because when she gets overly tired she starts doing EVERYTHING she shouldn't and I would like to take a nap too sometimes, or have an hour to myself. His reply?? " Well if you would go to bed earlier you wouldn't need a nap." I asked when I was suppose to have some time to myself and he says "you're alone every night after I go to bed." I walked off...I cannot understand for him.

  • My SO jokingly pokes fun at my recent snoring fits. He bitches about how loud I can get....well, sorry! I have an extra 26lbs on my tiny ass frame, I'm still fighting off a a cold, and allergies are kicking my ass! Shut it! You snore all the time! Ugh. [-(
  • Since this has turned into a full fledged DH rant, I'm joining!
    Today, our 7 year old has a stomach virus. He has alternated sleeping/puking the whole day. When he gets sick, he and I usually sleep in the living room (since apparently sickness is a mommy issue). I'm thinking since I'm 35 weeks pregnant, having Braxton Hicks like a bitch, and in general not needing a stomach virus at this point, DH would tend to the kid so I can rest. Yeah....he actually came in to ask while I was taking the "warm bath guaranteed to cure BH" (note the sarcasm) how much longer I was gonna be so he could go to bed. I sweetly replied, "longer if I have to drown you first." And he walks out. Seriously?!
  • Mine has been mostly wonderful about most things however..... not too long ago he told me sex was getting harder because of my belly getting in between us. This from the guy who's gut has been steadily increasing since we started dating and is still getting fairly regular sex from his 8 months preggo wife? Ummmm if you're worried about the distance between us, lose the weight in your spare tire dude. I'll get rid of mine here over the next few months thank you.

  • Ugh I want to kill mine. He's the biggest sissy when it comes to anything mildly uncomfortable, and makes sure everyone knows when he has a sore throat or a bruise or bit his tongue, whatever. If I mention that my back hurts or something, he'll say "Mine does too." about fucking anything! No, your anything isn't like my things. If I ask for a back rub he has to stop because his hands hurt. From taking clients out for lunch everyday? For sitting at a desk? You are a lawyer, maybe it's because you talk too much with your hands? Poor thing.

    Haha this made me laugh!
  • The cleaning thing gets me too. The nursery was his man room and everything has found another home in our apartment. He got a two dressers to make up for loosing his closet but he cannot be bothered to put his clothes in them. Instead our bedroom looks like a guys closet exploded. The rest of our place is clean because I clean it. He gets annoyed everytime I ask him to straighten up. Says "I am tired" , "I worked all day". Well so did I and I still cook and clean everyday!!!!!!!

    UGH!!!
