What has your sweetie done for you lately?

hlmdeck · August 2015

I know we had a thread similar to this several weeks ago, but @bookqueen's husband helping her with her laptop and son reminded me of how wonderful our SOs really are... Especially when we feel terrible or have crazy hormones.
What has your partner done to help, support, or spoil you lately?

welp he bought me two doughnuts today \:D/

I came home from running errands after work and H was out meeting his buds, but had cleaned the kitchen, dining, and living rooms floor to ceiling. Sparkling spotless! Best surprise.

jaimeruns · August 2015

I told him I think I might have a UTI and he came home with cranberry juice- the all natural organic kind! He gets me

notasycophant · August 2015

He made me a sandwich and he cut it up into 8 tiny pieces. He can't cook to save his life , so I found the effort pretty gallant. The choice of sandwich filling was questionable, but the way he sat there with those big puppy dog eyes full of anticipation while I ate.. I told him it was the best I'd ever eaten.

Edited" sandwhich to sandwich cause autocorrect on my chinese phone is nuts.

My husband never apologizes for anything. I can probably count 2 or 3 times he's apologized in the last year. I dont know if its a pride thing or what. We've been in kind of a slump lately just arguing over anything and everything. I woke up from a nap to two huge bags of sunflower seeds (I have an unhealthy addiction), movies and a card where he wrote "I'm sorry." I didn't hear it come out of his mouth but I'll take what I can get!

acuteangles · August 2015

I made a sort of "taco salad surprise"?out of random bits of food in the fridge for dinner tonight, and he ate it and said, "Mmmm baby this is really good" when it was anything but.

kwinsor85 · August 2015

He found and bought me a bag of the new pecan pie M&M's!

LisaDawnA · August 2015

He came to bed drunk at his family reunion and threw up in bed an hour later. He left the mess for me to clean up while he emptied the contents of his stomach in the toilet. Oh wait, this is the opposite of the point of this thread... but yup, I'm feelin lucky today \:D/

minivanmafia · August 2015

Mine has been very supportive and understanding of my mood swings and fatigue. I'm so very thankful, I'm not a lazy person but I have been over the last 2.5 months. He also went and got Swiss cheese from the store last minute because I forgot it for our steak sandwiches the night before last.

wisco29 · August 2015

He decided to come to yhe bedroom at 3:30 and sleep the last 3 whole hours in bed just enough for us to have to hear his alarms go off....
Sooo he knew I would be super angry that he work dd up again this week before 6:30, so he got her to lay back down and she's sleeping still. Hallelujah it's almost 8!

MrsJ2522 · August 2015

He took me out to eat last night because our power was out. Then we went and got Dairy Queen, laid in bed talking by candle light and ended the night with him giving me a foot rub!

Jellybelly119 · August 2015

He called the restaurant we were at last week, where I was pretty sure I left my sweater, went to pick up my sweater when they confirmed they actually had it, AND managed to find me another one online and ordered it so I have a back up

Jellybelly119 · August 2015

@mcollier2118 I have an unhealthy addiction to sunflower seeds, too! I didn't think there was another grown adult out there with this problem!

mcollier2118 · August 2015

@Jellybelly119 Oh yeah! I've been crazy about them for years. I usually go in spurts though. My husband and I love to eat them while watching movies. My favorite are the frito lay BBQ. I will go into a gas station and stock up all the time. People probably think I'm crazy lol.

bookqueen · August 2015

I love this.

well you all know thankfully my husband was able to fix my computer! Thank god, because I had never been so angry where I couldn't stop crying all night.

He put DS to bed for me too and then held me while I cried it out. He also took an extra trip to the store to get me the last ingredient I needed to make a dessert I wanted to make the other day, along with new dish soap since the kind I originally bought was unappealing.

SoSweetTea1124 · August 2015

I had a seriously bad headache last night and DH forced me into bed, tucked me in, got me a glass of water, Tylenol and a ice pack for my head. Then proceeded to check on me every 20 minutes to make sure I was ok. He even rubbed my back for a little while until I got annoyed... Hims is so sweet sometimes.

SarahS06 · August 2015

Our work is having a dress down day. Our team decided to make tie-dyed shirts so I bought a white shirt. The problem? I left it at home on the counter this morning. By the time I realized this, it was too late to turn around and get it. I called DH and told him I could return the shirt if he couldn't bring it. He brought it and stayed long enough to get a cup of coffee with me.

paytonpedro · August 2015

After my ultrasound Monday I really wanted to stop at a local cider mill but he had to get back to work, but he stopped anyways.

And yesterday he was all prepared to make tacos for dinner and it was the LAST thing I wanted! All I wanted was pasta! So he let me have my way and we went to Olive Garden!

So basically anything food makes me happy!

Not a restful night!! I would be busy this morning coming up with a list of ways he can make it up to you.

pbtoast · August 2015

I like this thread. I've been getting TERRIBLE headaches since end of 1st tri/start of 2nd. My SO recently brought me a cup of tea while I was taking a shower, then went out and got me 3 different types of pizza PLUS pasta from my favorite place because I couldn't decide what I wanted and he wanted to make sure I got something I liked.

brushesnbrunch · August 2015

He got awesome tickets to the Sounders (soccer team) match for tonight and actually invited me instead of taking other people like he usually does!

DrillSergeantCat · August 2015

Mine cleaned the kitchen yesterday before he went to work, grilled a pork loin for dinner, bought a game for me and played it with me last night.

robinj716 · August 2015

He told me I was beautiful, said he can't wait to meet our baby(he's so excited!) and even took me out to dinner, since he knew I was exhausted and didn't feel like cooking. It's the little things!

Edit- for auto correct spelling !

AdoptedCalm · August 2015

I have been puking and nauseous for the majority of my first trimester. I came home from work to a box sitting on our bed with a little note. He wrote me the sweetest things and got me a soft, lush robe from Pottery Barn to help me feel better.

g0lightly8706 · August 2015

these are all so sweet!!

I just got back from camping with my family and have to give my hunny props for stepping up and letting me just relax this time around. The entire campsite is on a hill and he didn't let me lift a finger helping him up and down the hill with all the camping gear. He also took over all the meals and made sure I was just "supervisor" for all the cooking and cleaning, when usually i'm the one doing most of that. It was very sweet of him because it was so hot up there and i really hate pulling the "I'm pregnant" card when it comes to things like that but he took over all the hard stuff so I didn't even have to say anything!

cbou · August 2015

My DH is a great cook and has been working dinner around my crazy food aversions and occasional cravings. He has also been putting up with my tiredness and moodiness.

=caenis= · August 2015

He's been taking on extra chores without complaint.

Cla1299 · August 2015

foot massages! I've had about five already. It seems he's going to continue giving me them through all 9 months. I'm definitely not complaining

Jen&AndyBaby1 · August 2015

My DH goes to the store day or night every time I crave something different.

cantobean · August 2015

H makes my breakfast every morning and my dinner most nights. He's the best.

DaisyTortilla · August 2015

He did all the dishes and got the kids to bed because I wasn't feeling so well last night.

shupertj09 · August 2015

He buys me food even when we made a whole dinner and I decide I want something else. He also got me flowers yesterday "just because".
