bit of a rant
So my husband and I have a 5 month old son together, and we kind of share the duties. Like if I need a break he takes over if he needs a break I take over. Well this past week has been down right horrible for me. I started having a very bad cold like coughing so much I can't breathe in between in the coughs, and my head has felt extremely foggy. Half the time I don't even remember what I did 5 minutes ago. Well this past Wednesday it was raining and I was taking out our dog, and as soon as my foot hit the second stair I slipped and fell down four more steps. I could barely get up and started screaming for help because my husband was at work at the time. But no one came so I picked myself up went down stairs got the dog, and came back up crying because every bone in my body hurt. Now I know you guys are probably going to wonder where are son is, and this is the reason why I'm keeping this anonymous. I left our son inside the apartment because 1. It was downpouring outside and 2. Our son is also sick so I didn't want to bring him out in the rain to make it worse. I also brought the radio with me so I can listen in to make sure he's okay. Well when I fell down the stairs he started screaming his head off, and I knew I needed to get back up to him.. well I got inside, and I could barely pick him up. So I immediately called my husband, and he came rushing home. He came in worried of course. Well I called my mom and asked her what she thought I should do go to the hospital or stay home, and she told me I needed to go to the hospital well my husband told me he has fallen down stairs multiple times and he's fine so he's sure I'm fine. So we never went. It is not Friday and my cold has gotten 10 times worse. I can't sleep, I can hardly eat without coughing up a storm. I cough every 3 minutes it seems. And I can't take anything because I'm breastfeeding and supposedly a lot of the medicine can dry up my breast milk. So two nights ago I asked my husband to do the dishes and he seriously complains about. It takes him 3 hours to get off his game, to put the dishes in the dish washer... and he doesn't start it! Just leaves it wide open, and he comes home from work later that night and asks me why I haven't started the dish washer. (Um I don't know because I'm sick, I'm sore, and I'm trying to take care of our son?) well yesterday he had the nerve to ask me when his day without our son was. I about told him not until I'm done with this cold and I stop being sore but I smiled and said "tomorrow" well now I'm going to a clinic today with a sick 5 month old because my husband wants a "alone day" I thought he would be more understanding about it all especially since he has a 5 day weekend I thought he would try helping me get better by watching our son while I get some rest but nope.. am I wrong? Should I not be upset? Also if you don't understand a lot of this I'm sorry again my brain is extremely foggy...
Update:I have told him multiple times to help out he just ignores me and continues to play his game
