    Need to vent!!!

    Its just way 2 hard today!
    so i am 35 wks now booked in for a c-section in 3 wks because i spend 5 days in hospital becuase i have torn all my stomach mucles and now have been put on lounge rest and i am not allowed to stand for more then 5 min. so i have spend the last 4 wks at home doing nothing even washing up is painful.

    So I cooked 3 lasangas yesterday to freeze for when bub arrives and dont have tme to cook. so this took me 8hr because i had to sit every few mins and use a chair so i could cook. i asked my husband to put them in the freezer which i just found out that he did but left the freezer door opened a tad. so i have a kitchen full of blood and defrosted meat and lasangas. (in 40 degree heat)

    I know i will look at it tomorrow and it wont be so bad, but i just wonder why are things so hard???? is it just me or does everyone feel alone sometimes?


    Thanks For listening

    Oh sweety, i feel for you very much right now!

    I took a sickie from work today as i just didn't feel up to teaching snotty teenagers (high school teacher) and had all these plans to go to the shops and finish the nursery stuff and do all my washing and folding. I managed one load of washing before i fell asleep on the couch watching star trek re-runs and now have to face doing the grocery shopping as i have eggs, mayonaise and beer in the fridge and not much else!

    Yes some days just seem to suck balls! I suggest make hubbie clean up the mess and play the pregnancy card! its the one of the only benefits we get in our predicament so use it!

    Feel better soon hun!

    You poor thing! The third trimester is so hard and it sounds like yours is really, really hard!

    Don't worry about cooking, you can buy some frozen meals or take away or eat toast when you get home. I totally get that urge to "nest" and fill the house with food and have everything perfectly clean but even when you get it perfect your husband messes it up while you're in the hospital anyway!

    Watch some mid day tv, sleep and read trashy mags, it'll be your last chance for awhile! Pamper yourself as much as you can x

    I am sure its pregnancy....and yours is particulaly tough..my DH is really getting to me, it feels like he could'nt care less???about me, or anything for that matter..I have to say I feel a bit of hatred for him at the moment??occasionally it feels like he is looking at me like loook how big you are etc, and tonight he made himself a cuppa and did'nt even ask me ( I usually don't have one, but its the fact he did'nt even ask, and I feel like his slave)
    I say your DH needs to do that clean up you are'nt really in a postion to do it yourself, and the frozen meals are a quick easy solution or takeaway, when bubs arrives. Honestly I often just felt like atoasted sandwich, a lot of the frozen meals I made were so unappealing and some did'nt agree with bubs anyway..
    Rest and relax while you can, in a few weeks you are going to be so busy.
