He has been absolutely fantastic this whole pregnancy but it has mainly been these past 2 weeks that I have really learnt to appreciate him! I live with my parents and my mam employs a cleaner so you could say I'm not very domesticated. I've made the cot up and done all my daughters things but generally day to day things are either done by my mam or Margaret (the cleaner). My mam and dad have been on holiday these past 2 weeks and so my OH has stayed at mine with me. He usually stays mon-fri anyways and we then spend fri-mon at his so we spend equal time with both families. Margaret still comes in but for some reason does less when my parents aren't her (like she will wash/hoover the floors every day when mam is here but hasn't these past 2 weeks - I think it's been done 3 times) so I've tried my best to keep on top of things as we have a dog and he molts quite a lot but as I'm not used to it I struggle.
Add that to SPD, thrush, high blood pressure and a fast heart rate I really have struggled but he's been fab! He gets up earlier every morning to walk my dog for me and walks him when he comes home from work again. I've tried to cook for him but I can't cook (it is not a case of won't cook I seem to be totally unable to cook!) and he's appreciated every meal. He has put the washing in to and out of the dryer because it's in the garage and I struggle to get my bump down the side of my mams car and the wall. He has cuddled me and told me how gorgeous he thinks I am and when I say I feel fat he tells me "you're not fat hun, you're carrying my baby and I think you look really sexy" and when I've felt ugly and wonder how he can love me or want me ever again with all the crap things I've had (thrush, hemorrhoids etc) he tells me "your easy to love and always will be to me"
I just love him so much! I can't imagine not having him by my side this pregnancy and he tells me how well I'm doing etc and there isn't another man on this planet that I would have wanted to go through pregnancy with! I am not expecting responses just wanted to get out my feelings! I see so many upsetting threads but I also see some really positive OH threads and think they deserve some credit so women can see there are REAL men out there who love and respect us even if they don't understand what we're really going through
