    getting very fat and moaning all the time about being tired! Or so he has informed his work colleague when he asked how i was doing. I mean come on thats not very nice at all.

    He works away 2 weeks out of every 4 weeks, so his friend had emailed him and that was his responce. I was only in his email because he asked me to check something out for our holiday flight confirmation thing and i thought oh ill read that message from friend as i know him aswell!

    Does he really think im fat, ive only put on 8lbs which the midwife said was really good for 17 weeks. I hope he doesnt think im repulsive. The other thing is the tiredness, i can't help it i feel exhausted but clearly ill have to stop saying anything as im obviously a nightmare.

    ARGH, i am so irritated by him, i have been dreading wearing my swimsuit on holiday next week and now the thought that my own husband thinks im fat is just horrible.

    My mum says im overreacting and that he probably means it in a nice way as my bump is growing. but FAT is such a horrible word.

    Oh honey I'm sure it was one of those 'boy' things. He prob wouldnt have put it that way to you but men simplify everything to be one of the boys.

    My OH was talking to his mate the other day who was going on a road trip with his mum and OH made some odd comment about how he'd like to go on a road trip with this guys mum!!! I told him to get himself off and not to look back!!! He said in the car on the way home that it was a bloke thing making mum jokes.....xxxxx

    Oh hon, why are they so bloody insenstive eh! He meant nothing by it i'm sure, as the girls say it's all a joke with boys. It's cool to say stuff like that isn't it. DH joked the other day that he'll have me on JK for a DNA test, well the look I gave him he nearly fell of his chair. Him and his mate were peeing themselves, I just said not to make jokes that he wasn't sure weren't true - he he, got him back big time!!!!
    Hon, when you see him just say to him to stop being so insenstiive. It's not fat, it's baby weight and you are not fat anyway, your bump is pure bump, everyone on FB thinks so!!!!!
    With regards to tiredness you generally can't help it, I'm sure you don't complain, you just tell your husband your feeling tired quite rightly, I bet it's alright for him to tell you about how bad his weeks were at work!
    Chin up sweetie, your DH dotes on you, he's just a typical man unfortnately!

    its in two weeks when we come back from our holiday.
    i know what you mean, just wish he was here so he could say i looked beautiful as its very difficult not being able to fit into your normal holiday clothes - but i love my bump and being pregnant so sod what anyone thinks all pregnant women are beautiful. well maybe except those that let it all hangout its not so nice.

    Maybe he was saying it in a jokey way, I am not sure how what your hubby is like but my hubby is a bit pf a p*ss taker and i wouldn't be surprised if I came across and email like that from him! We were in the car going shopping the other day and he was on the phone to a friend who asked how I was and he said, "you should see the size of her!" and I was sat right next to him! Cheeky bugger, and I am not even big, everyone comments how neat I am and that I don't look nearly 30 weeks pregnant!

    8lbs is not a lot to have put on at nearly half way through your pregnancy hon so don't worry! I think that because we are pregnant and not fat our men think we won't be offended if they comment on our size! x x x
