Husband made me feel guilty for needing to rest (pregnant with stomach bug)

seems like he is acting like a little kid tbh , he will get over it and hopefully have more understanding of what you do all day everyday while he is at work or whatever. seems like he doednt have much responsibility with said toddler and doednt understand the amount of work it truly takes bc you prob make it look easy lol

Lock your bedroom door and let him learn on the sofa. Also, make him do the 6:30am so he sees how much you are doing 'for him'

He either has a problem but that man don’t love you cause this ain’t fair. Pregnancy with a toddler is next level. And he should help you out as a husband the other parent. You need rest to be able to get back on your feet and that’s hard right now but feel better

yes he was also so quick to remind that he’s getting up tomorrow morning with me and was planning on making me breakfast in bed as it’s Mother’s Day (UK) but he ‘might not bother’ now… I was like please don’t if you’re just going to throw it in my face 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ bit of eggs and bacon ain’t worth it if it’s that much stress for you lmao

What a jerk!

These man children are utterly pathetic! Does he want a medal for parenting his own child for fucks sake? 🙄

You would think the fact you’re growing a human and you’ve caught a vom bug he would have been worried that you may have been dehydrated or even check that baby was still ok and taken you to the hospital or bought you some electrolyte rehydration sachets, but no, instead he chose to be a dick! About thank him! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Also shame on him for being so petty and tit for tat. So because he’s pissed off at you he’s going to cancel your Mother’s Day plans? Girl I’m mad on your behalf! I would definitely keep this same energy for Father’s Day! 😤

He is probably just mourning his old life but doesn't know how to express it. Men take a lot more time to adjust then women as it just comes naturally to us. As you are the closest to him he's taking it out on you. I'm not sticking up for him as this doesn't make it right however talk to him and see if this is the case. He probably feels like if he has been supporting the family financially while you are on maternity this is helping you all day every day doing that, but in reality mums need physical help and don't place emphasis on the financial help. Men are like kids. Even if he does something but it's not perfect they need a lot of praise and they will keep doing it. Even if we have to do it right afterwards when they are not looking.

My husband used to get up after me and the kids every day. However when he did get up at the same time to help I used to go over the top and praise him and thank him for all his help. He now gets up every day with us. I still have to show the gratitude (and I am grateful however to us mums this should just be natural) however it gets me what I need because he continues to help me and it makes him feel good so is keen to keep doing it xx

Jesus Christ can we as women please stop with this ridiculous narrative that men are helpless little children who we have to train and say “good boy” at the most basic of things. Just because your standards are low and you have settled for a man baby as a partner, doesn’t mean everyone else does or accepts this! Should we pat them on the head and give them treats too for things like not pissing on the seat? 🤣

Imagine having to thank your own partner for looking after their own child! And then doubling down and going over the top, just so he continues doing the bare minimum. Are you not embarrassed? 🥴

Also mourning his old life? Incog mentioned they have a toddler so at least 3 years since he’s been a dad, it’s not like he’s a new dad! He can’t have been in mourning for 3 years now 😂 The excuses being made for these men are insane 🤣

I hope you have a lovely Mother’s Day Incog and he has apologised.
