You shouldn't feel guilty being pregnant is so hard. It puts a lot of pressure on all our bodies and we all need to rest. Partners can be so unsupportive. But your doing amazing job don't be so hard on ur self.
I'm actually so so tired of seeing the "being pregnant isn't a disability" comment mostly coming from men. A disability is something that prevents you from doing something. I don't know about everyone else but the first 3 months had me bedbound, I did no laundry, I slept all the time, barely made tea and wasn't ABLE to do my usual tasks. I'm now 32 weeks, I'm tired and in absolute agony with sciatica and other various pains, I can't do certain things. It should be classed as a temporary disability. Personally, I would never stay with a man who makes this comment, it says a lot about their emotional maturity and their empathy and sadly sets you up for how they will likely be in the future when it comes to caregiving, I suppose because you carried your LO, you will wholly be responsible? Sad that this experience they will never ever go through elicits dumb comments when they literally can't even begin to understand how it impacts a woman's body.
You shouldn’t be feeling guilty about wanting to have a lazy day. I’m normally one of the most active people but being heavily pregnant, your body tells you when you need to slow down. Just relax and take time for you. Try and explain to your partner how you’re feeling.
