My poor fiancé. He has been working soooo hard recently. Tonight he was in the office until 7. He then had to drop into our friends house and pick up Imogen's jazz shoes for her drama class in the morning. He eventually got home at 9 pm. I had felt nothing but pity for him- but when I sat down at 9pm to eat the special lasagne I had made for him instead of offering him my sympathy- I dished out a barrage of anger at the fact that he is working so hard, thus putting us second. How poor Imogen doesn't get to spend quality time with him anymore and how I am
Barely managing to keep this up with one child- but I most certainly won't be able to do it with 2!!!! Poor man then had me crying over my dinner and explaining that everything was just soooo tough for me right now! Stupid woman!!!! How bloody dare I be so unfair to him. He is working all the hours he can to try to get things sorted so that I don't have to worry about things- and I have the audacity to moan at him
When he walks through the door! I am so cross with myself!!!
Grrrrrrr to me for being dreadful!!!
 
Aw hun :hug:

Don't beat yourself up, I'm sure he knows that you didn't mean it.

FWIW I am the grumpiest madam alive these days. Me and OH have had too many arguments because I can't drop things. I'm a bloody nightmare!
 
It's crazy isn't it! I know I've been dreadful! Usually I would apologise and I haven't even done that to him. I've just come to bed and am now laying here feeling horrible!

I am so thankful its not just me though. God these poor men! Sometimes I wonder if it's harder for them... I do get over that thought quickly though, when my heartburn is raging, I am out of bed to wee 15 times a night and then I can't get into a comfy position when I am in bed!
Last night I even woke up because of how much my boobs were leaking. Can you imagine that as a surprise for me. So perhaps our men don't have it any worse than us... But they do have a lot to put up with if we are hormonal!
 
Awh Hun I think everyone has done the same kind of thing. Hope you ok xx
 
My OH seems to be working himself into the ground too but always rings me on his lunch break to make sure I'm ok and if I need anything. Then at weekends and evenings he's trying to build all the storage and decorate as well, then when that's done he's got to bring all the stuff home that we have stored in his warehouse....then he has to get me and Albert through labour as well! He's stressed out of his head bless him. And I feel so useless cos we always cope with things together. And all he gets at home is me moaning about my ribs/indigestion/back etc

But if we think about it if they weren't the wonderful men they really are then we wouldn't be having their babies would we? xxxxxxxxx
 
Very true!!! I love my man soooo much! (OMG I am being far too slushy about him... Something is wrong!)

When he came to bed he said 'please don't be cross with me!' I sobbed again and after giving him a great big cuddle I explained I'm not cross- I just miss him as does Imogen! I explained that he was not doing himself any good by working so hard, and then spending weekends doing nursery things. Bless him!!!

This morning, he has got Imogen out of bed for me, and put her in the shower (as she missed her bath last night waiting for him to come home!!!) so they are currently having a fun morning. Bless them. Hopefully - he has taken what I've taken into consideration and perhaps there will be less late nights and a few less stresses and pressures here... Perhaps we can spend more family time together! That's what we need!

Anyway - thanks for your responses girls! Fingers crossed I can wipe my grumbling mood out! Poor man didn't know what had hit him!!! Xxx
 
Sometimes they need us to explode to realise hun. We will be having a family time rota, my sister has done this with her family and it really works. Saturday mornings they have pj time, all curled up in her bed to watch cartoons and have breakfast, Then on Sundays, mornings or afternoons which ever is best they go out for a walk together. It doesn't sound much but it counts for a lot.

We are lucky that we live right on the river and the walks here are lovely so every Sunday we will be out walking too (helps with the baby weight too lol).

Set aside some time, no deviation no excuses and get into the habit now of just being the 3 and then 4 of you xxxxxxxx
