Oh yeah. I had a breakdown one night cause DH didn't clean up after himself. Saying I can't do it all myself and take care of a baby. He tried to make a joke about well just look at this way you already have practice and it will just be like having 2 kids. So not funny.

I think that it was something stupid, like him leaving his spoon from stirring the creamer into his coffee on the counter and I have to clean the counter cause it left a mark. Annoying, but worth yelling at him, not so much.

This sounds... so familiar.

Hahahah yeahhhh. I've been having freakouts about how when the baby comes he won't do anything. And then he says
"do I help out now? Don't I help cook dinner and clean the house? Why would I do otherwise when baby comes?" aaaand then i feel like an asshole.

@Trailmix: I get mad when DH calls to say he is going to be working late and to eat without him so I don't have to wait. Like I can't eat by myself or something these days. These hormones are crazy. He probably is wishing he was traveling, instead of being on a project at home, these days.

Pretty early on, DH was making me breakfast because I couldn't stomach cooking myself, but first he cleaned up the kitchen, got all the ingredients lined up... in short, he took so long. I knew in my head that he was being nice, but I kept trying to just hurry him up since I was getting more nauseous by the minute. Finally I went into the bedroom and SOBBED-- like full body racking sobs, because breakfast was taking too long. Yeah... he said he learned from that experience that when I am hungry, he needs to run like his hair is on fire to get me food.

@Smurfette: DH has made similar jokes about his immaturity being practice and I'll have to take care of two kids. NOT funny.

@Foodnerd81: Oh man, I think my FI has learned this lesson too - hungry pregnant lady means food needs to happen immediately. I think I have cried over this.

I think the irrationality comes with the territory. We recently bought a house and I've been having regular breakdowns about selecting appliances....

Yeah. I leave before DH in the morning and this morning I was scrambling to get out the door (story of my life) and went in to wake him up. He wanted me to set his alarm for him and cover him up.

I screamed at him that I didn't have time to find his effing phone and set his alarm and that I was not covering him up, that he could reach over and grab the damn blanket himself.
