Annoyed with my husband
But I can’t tell if it’s just pregnancy hormones making me irritable or if I have a justifiable reason to be upset. I’m 32 weeks along, and I have HG. It went away around week 24, but came back week 28. I have been taking medication, and it’s helped a lot. But I ran out and my doctor refuses to refill unless we meet in person, and they couldn’t fit me in sooner than my next appointment a week from now. Whatever, I figured I could power through, but I’ve been having a hard time. I puke 5 times a day, can’t really keep food or drink down, but I’m able to at least eat one meal. Anyway, because I have been so sick, I have started lacking in household chores. I go to bed earlier, so things I used to take care of after I put the kids to sleep have kind of went undone. For example, dishes or taking out the trash, or taking the trash to the road. I haven’t asked my husband for help, but he very clearly knows I’m sick and don’t feel well. He has helped me put the kids to bed and has offered to take me to the hospital for fluids. Anyway, the past two nights, he has gotten home pretty late from work. I feel badly he has to work so late, but it has kind of been his fault. He has been waking up super late and getting to work later, and the reason he is waking up late is because he is up until 1:30/2am playing video games with his buddies. I got up with the kids this morning before his alarm even went off, and he snoozed it 5 times before getting up. Before he went to bed last night, I figured he would pick up his mess. But there was a plate and a can of soda on the couch, his controllers left out and headset (I ask him not to do that so the kids don’t play with them and break them), the dishes haven’t been done in 2 days and the trash was overflowing. On top of that, trash ran today and I forgot to take it to the road and I guess so did he. The thing is, I have a legit excuse as to why I haven’t been able to pick up the house- I have zero energy, and I do it most of the time anyway. He has no excuse. He was up until 2am playing video games, he always wakes me up coming to bed, and he had plenty of time to take 5 minutes and load the dishwasher. Or take the trash out. Like, I don’t understand why he doesn’t just freaking at least pick up after himself. 🙄 I just needed to vent. Thanks for reading this far if you did. Debating on if I should tell him to buck up or just let it go.
