My DH is awesome because...

hanafan36 · November 2013

My work had a thanksgiving lunch today that you needed tickets for to get a tray. I was still hungry so my Husband stole one for me off the serving table so I could get seconds. XD

and also because when he's half asleep he rolls over and pulls me into a big hug like his personal teddy bear. so cute!

DH is awesome because...he always helps me with everything...he actually insists I just lay down and rest. Which I refuse to do. He brings DD to us when he wakes up at night. He's just so supportive. Any craving I have he'll drive around to all stores he knows to find it. Lol. I love him!

hanafan36 · November 2013

That's so sweet!

DaisyTortilla · November 2013

I got lucky!

but then again...I spoil his every wish too. Lol.

He sent me flowers to work yesterday!

Husband? What husband?

Kidding. My husband is awesome because he busts his ass at work so we can live comfortably and not have to worry about finances. It doesn't leave him much time for anything else. He's been working 14-ish hour days all week and will be working all day tomorrow as well. The past 3 days it's been almost freezing and raining, so he's been pretty miserable climbing power lines in that.

I'll have to make cinnamon rolls on Sunday when he's home...they sound really good!

My husband talks with our baby every night, (hi baby! This is daddy! What did you do today? Did you have fun with mommy?) prays for us and the baby, and puts on earpiece against my belly so the baby can listen to music.

I truly have the most wonderful husband who makes frequent trips to mcdonalds for large sprites and a nightly foot massage. I can't wait to see him be a dad.

My sciatica was in full force last night and I could hardly walk. We were getting ready to snuggle and watch a movie when I dropped my amazing looking (and smelling) piece of peppermint pie on the ground! I almost cried. I waddled to the trash and threw it away. DH asked why I didn't get another one - and I explained cutting it (it's a cold frozen pie) was hurting my already painful sciatica. After my first "please pause the movie so I can pee"....I came back to the couch to find a new price of pie! It may not sound like much - but I thought it was super super sweet.

hanafan36 · November 2013

My husband is awesome because even though he's sick right now, he cleaned all the dishes and made dinner.

RedInLove · November 2013

My DH is awesome because while I was cleaning out our fridge today (took me 2 hours, doing the freezer tomorrow), he vacuumed, went to Home Depot to get bulbs to change out in our great room, and brought me back McDonald's french fries. Then he cooked dinner tonight.

hanafan36 · November 2013

Mine is awesome because last night when I had pain *down there* he did all the internet searching so I wouldn't find all the worst case scenario things and freak out. Also got me ice because "a lot of people online say it feels like being kicked in the balls and ice helps." XD

hanafan36 · May 2014

Dh is so amazing these last few weeks. Helping me out of bed, rubbing my back/neck/tummy/toes/everything, and generally being there for me.

One slightly annoying thing is he seems to ask "are you okay?" every ten minutes, but it's also really sweet. I wish I could help him not stress out so much about money. -_-

britab · May 2014

Mine completely cleaned out both our cars and installed the car seat bases. I haven't really done much in the nursery. He has set most things up.

He did ask me today if I should start wearing a diaper in case my water broke though, so he's not perfect. lol.

jjtyler · May 2014

My husband has been amazing. He stayed over the first two night in the hospital. Was with me every second during the day....all while making sure our 8 year old was taken care of and feeling loved on.

Then when we got home he has made me lay down and put my feet up and stayed up with my little one for the first 4 nights when we got home...and was sad when I took over last night.

That, plus he helped me shower in the hospital, helps me physically get up, and cooks all the meals. A girl can really get used to this. I'll be sad when he goes back to work next week.

Zombie thread!!

My husband is amazing bc he has yet to complain about my lack of cooking, and will let me have as much eviction sex as I want!

hbird0723 · May 2014

I think this is great! My husband has been so understanding about the hormones and even though it drives me crazy that I feel sad out of no where he has been so comforting! He's gone grocery shopping twice now to feed my family that was visiting and both times he's had to go to two stores because they didn't have something at the one.

KBowen715 · May 2014

My husband takes care of the older children 100% (the olders aren't his- their dad died); cleaning, taking to school, teacher emails, sports, bedtime routine, etc. This allows me to care for our baby efficiently. He did this while I was pregnant, too.

He also gets all misty-eyed looking at me and baby.

I love that guy.

No kidding! I got seriously cOnfused when I saw storrmys posted...

Btw DH is awesome because he took over all the cooking (he only knows how to cooks 2 things frozen pizza and Kraft Mac n cheese, but last night he made ravioli with marinara sauce and steamed cauliflower, he was so proud!) and brought me some cheesecake.

hanafan36 · May 2014

I'm super emotional all over again this close to our EDD, and he takes it in stride. I get so many cuddles and ice cream cones it's ridiculous.

And with all the stress of this last week (or two, according to the doc) I needed to bring back a thread that makes me smile.

LeeLee86 · May 2014

My DH is awesome bc everyday he gets home from work he takes over and tells me to get out of the house! Even if it's for 20 minutes it feels great to be in the outside world lol. DD is 2wks and he's been amazing every single day. So thankful to have him.

shaunamw · May 2014

My husband is awesome because he has taken care of our son the past week while I've been at the hospital and he brings me dinner every evening. Plus he knows how hard these NICU days have been on me and keeps calling me to check in and give me little pick me ups. Last but not least he learned acupressure and it was a huge help during labor.

Sarac2288 · May 2014

As much as I complain to him that he's not helping enough. When it does do something nice makes me forget about that. He fed the baby a bottle last night and got him to sleep so I could sleep since I felt sick think from lack of sleep and now he just left to go get breakfast

hanafan36 · May 2014

I started crying because there was cake in the ice cream tub (I don't even know...) and instead of getting frustrated or laughing at me he just gave me a kiss and got me a plate for the cake. We then laughed about it later. He also will stop playing his video game to get up and walk/sway with me if I ask him to when the contractions feel real bad.

jsaffer01 · May 2014

We just got home yesterday from the hospital. MH was so sweet he let me nap after we ate lunch, and then he napped. And he also took the baby when he went to grab dinner and pick up my pain meds, so I could just rest with the dogs. Since the dogs have been stressing me out because they are still getting used to the idea that this baby cries.

And last night he let me go to bed early, and then he went to bed later and we took turns getting up with the baby. It was so nice, that at one point in the night he offered to get up that time.

And this morning I had to wake him up to kill a yellow jacket flying in the house, and he had no problem getting out of bed to do it. And then he asked if it was okay that goes back to sleep for a few more hrs. The fact that he asked is really nice.

Jennyinheaven · May 2014

My DH is awesome because he let me sleep from 9 pm last night till 5 this morning! I awoke on my own because my breasts were huge and couldn't figure out what was going on I went to the living room to find DH on the couch and baby in the pack and play. So now I am pumping and feeling like a new woman this is the most sleep I have gotten in a month.

Happypost · May 2014

Dh took LO for 7 hours so that I could have personal time/sleep. It was much needed

hanafan36 · May 2014

First DH saved me from super pain by convincing me to go to the hospital just in time--we checked in and they gave me an epidural right away even though I wasn't sure if the contractions were regular enough.

Now he lets me sleep all night (I pump so he can feed her at night) on top of doing all burpings, changes, and cooking.

He also knows when to pull me away if I can't figure out why LO is crying so I don't get irrational or overly frustrated.

Lild09 · May 2014

My husband is amazing and I've always known it but watching him be a daddy is the best!

He was right on top of everything with ds and me in the hospital including our nicu stay. He stayed with me at the hospital the whole week we were there and barely left my side.

He helped me nurse ds the other night while I was falling asleep making sure he was on right and that I was comfortable and safe

He's done all the cloth diaper laundry and other laundry, chores etc without a complaint bc I'm recovering from my c section

JAM85 · May 2014

My DH is awesome for a hundred reasons! He is such a wonderful father and husband- he changes her diapers (cloth), let's me get some extra sleep after some rough nights, shares cooking dinner every other night if I'm too tired, and doesn't complain when I wake him to burp and change her in the MOTN. We all get lots of snuggles together and he tells me everyday how beautiful and amazing I am. I always feel amazingly lucky.

hanafan36 · May 2014

Not sure if it's amazing worthy, but it was funny: When my milk came in DH was shellshocked.

He just stared and went "Wow. Damn. I'm scared to touch them." It made me laugh and eventually he got comfortable enough to massage them to get milk flowing.

mamagerman · May 2014

My husband is amazing because of all that he is doing for me and the baby. Yesterday I woke up to find my stitches coming out from my third degree tear (I was one week, one day pp). He took me to the er where they found out I had an infection that separated the stitches. They did a quick patch job, hoping it does the trick and we came home. DH has been so awesome with changing diapers, extra snuggles for Cecilia, and doing all the cooking and cleaning around the house! Couldn't ask for a more amazing hubby!

hbird0723 · May 2014

He has been coming home for lunch to help with our very fussy baby. Sometimes I think it's gas but sometimes I really think she's just being stubborn like when I try to get her to eat from my left boob. She will scream until I switch. Anyway it has been nice to let him hold her for a bit and to enjoy lunch together.
