Asshole

I aborted our anencephalic baby 3 hours ago. My husband is “working from home” to “take care of me”.

This means not letting the dogs out so I have to chase them to come in, and responding to my texts for help with comments like “why did you let them out if you can’t handle it?” “Deal with it, I’m busy” and other gems such as this. This includes when I told him our gas fireplace turned itself off and was making a noise I’d never heard before.

Such an asshole!!!

UPDATE-thanks for the comments. I’m trying to stay strong and not take things out on him.

1 day post op was actually easier with him being at work. Yesterday he’d rile up the dogs in his 5 min break and then go back upstairs and leave me to deal with them going crazy and on top of that be a dick about it. Without him here they mostly just slept right along with me.

Now he’s at happy hour, getting home 3 hours later than usual. And he hasn’t texted me at all in the last 4 hours. His boss is in town this week, but come on??

I think about trying again soon because I always wanted to be a mother, but I fear it would be more of the same with a baby only worse. I would be an unofficial single mother resenting him all the time. I love him, but don’t know why we’re together anymore. We don’t do much together at all. For the 1 hr per day we hang out and watch tv after work he storms out if I want to watch anything other than sports or car shows and sits in his office. If we go out he’s on his phone the whole time trolling twitter or Facebook.
