pregnant or just lazy

so im currently 15 almost 16 weeks pregnant, also a mom to a very hyper 2 year old. I am currently suffering from depression which i was diagnosed with and on top of chasing around a busy body toddler all day, sometimes its really hard for me to do certain things or i just get really tired. I haven’t been able to eat much so my energy levels are loss but i try my best not to seem lazy. so today after my husband and i took the kiddo to the park i was absolutely exhausted, i had been up all night with the kid the night before then woke up at 7am and maybe took a 30 min cat nap. I was feeling hungry and i asked my husband to warm up my food for me. He was about to do it until his game started and proceeded to tell me it was too late. Then yelled at me saying “why can’t you do it yourself there is nothing wrong with you” and it just hurt me so bad because im not lazy i’m just pregnant and would expect my man to cater to me and at least warm my food up after i bought food and fixed him a plate. He gets so mean when he is on the game he won’t even stop to tend to his own child. am i just lazy or do i deserve to have a bit of help?

Also there has been many times where he has woken me out my sleep to fix him food or grab a drink and the minute i say why can’t he do it he throws a fit and starts saying “that’s what women are for” he believes a man shouldn’t cook for his wife or in his words “warm up food” that’s my job in his book

i feel this post so much!!! i have a hyper 2yo too and i want to do nothing alll day. i keep telling ppl i dont remember being this tired while pregnant, then someone told me “well you’ve never had a 2 yo and been pregnant” i also have depression and anxiety and i haven’t been on my normal meds bc idk if i can take them yet and i sure am feeling the effects… to answer your question, no not at all lazy. we’re just so. fucking. tired. PS Vitamin b6 and iron have helped my energy levels come up some, make sure you have that mama! Congratulations on your new little one, i pray you find the balance you’re looking for.

and yes he needs to step it up or i’m gonna get all the mamas on peanut to kick his butt.

Not sure how he was raised or where he got the idea that women should cook for men... From the beginning of your relationship did you know he was like this?

Your not lazy You need to be loved and cared for and put first from your partner. It would be nice if he showed his love by making you a meal and just knowing you're eating well for your pregnancy.

Hell NO, you are not lazy! Your body is LITERALLY making a human which takes an immense amount of energy while substaining the energy to take care of an active toddler and lack of sleep truly doesn't help. He's being a piece sh*t. As a husband he needs to help care for you, especially when you are pregnant. And he can f*co himeself and make is own dang plate of food instead of waking you for sleep (which is highly needed!). Jeez these men 🤬 Im sorry, this just made me made. You by no means are lazy . We marry to have partners to be there for each other and help in life.
