Hi everyone,

My partner and I are having our first baby and I am only 10 weeks along. I have been suffering from all days sickness for 4 weeks now. I get really tired in the afternoons and by the time I get home I just want to sleep. I make dinner, clean up, organise myself for work, make his lunch all while he watches TV or plays on the internet.

Yesterday my partner told me I was on some sort of power trip which I was very upset about. I dont beleive I have done anything wrong but be sick CONSTANTLY. I have sort of snapped at him in the last week twice as he was annoying me while I was trying to make dinner, I did explain why I did that but he doesnt understand.

My partner comes from a family where everything was done for him and everyone listened to what he said. From what I can gather he is struggling as our relationship has changed for the moment because im not very loving etc. I tried explaining that being sick all day and all night is no fun for me. Im tired, 10.30pm is extremely late for me these days but he just cant see it. He is too worried about himself.

I just dont know what to do, I still have options regarding the baby but i dont want to go down that path, I want my partner to step up and be a man!

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks
