  • Why do men think a few squirts and their job is done?

    You are certainly not in the wrong with the way you are feeling. It's an emotional time (also happiness) but there is, at least for me, apprehension and fear. It's a big thing having a baby and probably one of the most life changing events you will ever have.

    It seems you need to tell him in straight in my view (but then I am a very straight to the point person). If I were you I would do less around the house, particularly if it involves picking up after your other half. He's going to have to learn very quickly that you will need a help and this is a good time to start. Go on strike that's always effective. He will soon moan when he has nothing clean in the wardrobe and even then, don't relent. Just stick it out.

  • I think a lot of blokes are rubbish in the early stages of pregnancy (when we need them most) but I found as my bump started to grow and he could see I was pregnant my DP changed and is now wonderful. I think you need to give them time for it to sink in. ;\)
