My partner has been complaining he doesn't receive love and affection, doesn't want to help with much, we've been arguing like crazy, and calls me a selfish, ungrateful bitch 🙃 so there's that. I bought my first home about 2 months ago and basically have been getting things together for the baby, doing upgrades, daily chores etc by myself except for when my parents come by and help me just about every weekend since I've moved in! I've been constantly nagging and complaining, but am done asking for and expecting anything! My partner does not work. I'm 33 weeks. Good luck to you, this is not easy.
It’s so hard to balance your attention, I imagine it’s only going to get harder when the baby gets here. It’s definitely a challenging time.
My husband isn’t as helpful as I’d like him to be. We don’t have everything prepared for the baby, and a lot of what I need done banks on him helping me (moving furniture, boxes, that sort of thing). He helps, but his process is so freaking slow. I would have had everything done by now if I were allowed to lift heavy things!
@Karleah I totally feeeeel this!!! Like where's the get-it-done attitude maaaan. Lol
I know! I don’t know how many times I need to bring up going to ikea/Home Depot to buy furniture. It’s looking like the baby will be here before we get it all done.
Looking like the baby will be sleeping on the hardwood floor is what I'd say 🤣🤣
@Karleah are you one of those people that’s like if we knock this off our to do list THEN we can kick back? Because I’m very similar. Like I wanna get this shit out of the way so I can have more brain space for other shit.
This is our third and my husband works a much more labor intensive job than he did with the others. He has not been very helpful at home.
