Partner stress

Is anyone else really struggling with their partner in the final weeks of pregnancy? I am constantly arguing about him not staying out late/all night as I could go into labour at any time and he always says he won’t and then does the complete opposite! It’s putting a massive strain on our relationship and I just don’t know if it’s normal for them to be getting it out of their system or if this is just totally unacceptable?

Its hard to generalise but I know my husband stopped drinking last week and hasnt made any social plans for the whole month (unless its with me/family and even then we arent doing much), I would be really annoyed if I were you. I guess there is probs something to be said for them maybe panicking and feeling like its their last chance but like they’ve had the last 8 months for that 😵‍💫 Saying that, I have seen a few posts like this so I dont think you’re alone in this. Sending love xx

No it's not normal. He should be facing up to his responsibility of impending parenthood and looking after you in your final days/weeks of being pregnant. My partner is far from perfect but anytime his mates ask him to go out now he tells them no because his baby can come at any time. You've got every right to be upset. Who wants a pissed up man next to them whilst giving birth?! Set your boundaries straight with him because his behaviour is unacceptable and you deserve better after all you've gone through to carry and grow your little baby to this point xx

Baby movements

So I’m now officially 22 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 and I’m still yet to feel him move. I had my 20 week scan not last week but the week before and everything seemed fine but have a repeat scan tomorrow due to not getting a proper measurement of his face. I’ve been told I have an anterior placenta too. Should I start getting worried yet ?? With my first baby my placenta was at the back and I felt him move around the 20 week mark. I’m just really paranoid as I have fertility issues as it is and have had miscarriages in the past and I’m classed as a high risk pregnancy with this one as I have strep B and I had gestational hypertension and pre eclampsia with my first baby so I’m on shared care with this pregnancy and I’m also on aspirin too which was prescribed by the hospital to take to prevent with this pregnancy.

Is everyone just done now and ready for baby or not there yet?

If you’ve had enough and ready how far along are you?

I’m 37 weeks and starting to get more uncomfortable but enjoying it generally not at the end of my tether yet but I fear it may be just around the corner according to everyone else? Haha
