My husband has been sick with migraine headaches for the past week, just as I am 38 weeks pregnant. It’s made things extra tiring since we have a 1 year old. He’s very vocal about every thing, including every ache and pain he has. I’m the opposite. It’s hard to listen to his constant complaints when I am having early labor pains. He’s been sleeping hours during the day. Yes, sometimes I’m nesting when I could be sleeping but other times I am actually doing the housework that has to been done (I’m the one that cooks) and spending time with our daughter, who we will leave for the first time overnight when he sister arrives. I get especially frustrated when he is staying up until 1 am watching the game yet sleeping during the day while my daughter is up because he’s sick or when he’s on his computer or cell phone or tv.

Just so frustrating because I need right now so much support and I don’t think he sees or realizes that. I know if the tables were turned I’d be so much more thoughtful in what I’d do or say to him, pretty much no matter what I was going through.
