Ok so I have to spill my secret. Normally my husband and I rotate weeks to pick up dog poop but ever since 6 weeks on I've had the worst MS.....so I kind of fib and told him I couldn't stomach doing it.
I'm all for flaming but I don't see the judgyness! I've heard so many stories like this on my 2+ years on TB and def sometimes exaggerate how many poopy diapers I've had to change to get DH to do the next one.
First BFP 12/2012, MMC at 9 weeks
Second BFP 6/2013, resulted in DS, born 2/23/14 :-)
Third BFP 5/2015, natural MC at 6 weeks
Fourth BFP 8/2015, hoping for sticky little brother or sister to H!
Proud SAHM to our little monkey H.

It's posts like this that make me not want to be a part of women groups. Stop judging each other. Maybe you wouldn't have done that to your husband but she did. And she was trusting to have some support from other mommies to be.
I seriously hate this birth month board. These women are all so catty! I dry heave all day long and I never know exactly what triggers it luckily my hubby and my neighbors are picking up my slack because I'm always exhausted. I live in a duplex so we have 3 dogs and our neighbors have 3 dogs and we share a yard, so we share poop duty.

There's no problem here with people helping pick up the slack when you can't handle a task or even aren't sure if you can. The problem is with someone who wants support in lying to her husband to get out of something she just doesn't want to do.
Yep! I'm with you on this one! Women take care of their men like an extra child most of the time, right now my partner is treating me like I'm precious so I'm gonna take full advantage! Even with my 19 year old son who I constantly pick up after. Nothing wrong in stretching the truth a little! I wouldn't even call that a lie! Think of all the poopy nappies you are gonna do in the future while he's at work! Make the most of being precious x

I'm so with you on this, luckily I can see past the narky bits and there are some really lovely ladies here too

Really? I don't take care of my husband like a child. He is a grown man and I treat him as such. There is something wrong with your marriage if you see your husband as a child who can't care for himself.
My husband has been doing a lot of things for me when I am too sick to do them myself but I would never LIE to him to make him do it.
I'm not getting in to this!! Lighten up ladies!! So much pregnancy cranky ness . My partner is a very strong man and very capable in all areas of life, but I am very attentive and loving as his partner and love to look after him. He loves to look after me. I took this post as light heart tongue in cheek! Geez you girlies are all so serious and very cranky!!
No, these women are not "cranky." Way to try to diminish their opinions though.
These women are saying, and I 100% agree, that if you don't want to do something, just be honest about it and say so. There is absolutely no need to lie about it. It's called being an adult; grow up and stop playing games. It's pretty ridiculous if you can't be honest with your SO about something as stupid as picking up after your dog.
I wasn't going to respond after all the catty comments, but jeez ladies. It's dog poop. If your goal was to make me feel guilty, I don't. Each one of you that put me down for this take a long look in the mirror before you start pointing fingers. You can't tell me that you've never stretch the truth.....like that purchase at target or the shirt that "isn't new". Yeah we're all guilty of these little white lies so please stop putting me down for it. And if you must know after I posted that I did inform my husband of it. He laughed and said he'll pay me back when it comes to poopy diapers. When I first started being part of this group everyone seem lovely now it's like high school all over again with the caddy attitudes. We're all adults. We're all pregnant. We're all stressed and tired and probably puking our guts out. So can we please just be nice and support each other instead of putting each other down.
Me being pregnant has nothing to do with my response; I believe in honesty whether I am pregnant or not.
Support, to me, means that I am going to give you an honest reply and or advice on any post made to the general group where I feel I have something to add. If you are looking for a bunch of people to agree with everything you post, then why post at all?
Well it seems like the majority of women here feel like lying to your significant other over something trivial is what's truly rude in this post. I'd rather be a part of a community that agrees with that. Also the "tone" of this BMB is in line with the rest of TB, so maybe you would like and fit in with another community better.

There's def a small group of mean girls who literally respond like clones of each other to a bunch of threads on TB. Just brush it off and enjoy the rest of the community which consists of nice ladies with an actual sense of humor. I was given this advice from people on this board so I'm passing it on to you. I leave poopy diapers for my husband to dump out lol I tell him it's the least he can do since I change them all day till he gets home
I don't have a dog, but if I did, I would make MH handle it and just tell him I'm not doing it. Right now I make MH handle the garbage now because sometimes it has a smell that grosses me out.
