July 2025 Babies 🇺🇸

Furious with my husband

I am 36+1, but the last 2 days have been really hard for me. Contractions picking up frequency, hips hurting, exhausted one minute, energetic the next. This is my second and I think labor is coming soon.

I have an almost 3 year old who I love dearly but is definitely acting out the last 2 weeks. Partially I think because baby is coming soon and partially because he's trying to assert his independence and get a sense of his place in the world. My husband has been an inpatient *** for weeks. Everytime my toddler doesn't listen perfectly, he huffs and sighs and acts like it's the worst thing that's ever happened to him.

I'm exhausted and want to rest but I can't because he can't handle anything by himself for 5 minutes. He has to be told what to do all the time or just ends up sitting on his phone and then gets mad he has to look up from his phone. I'm at the point where I don't want him at labor because I don't want to have useless dead weight there, but I also am starting not to trust him with our toddler because he gets frustrated so easily and says mean things. He's just being a child instead of a man and I'm very hormonal and just over it.
