Tradwife blues

Today, my husband and I are sick. He keeps whining about how bad he feels. I'm just as sick, as well as 7 months pregnant. I've not only been taking care of his whiny ass: I've cooked, cleaned, and gone to the store several times because the tissues we had were too rough on his nose. FML

Just leave him alone for a few hours and he will realize that life indeed can be tough. Teach him a lesson. If you don't do it now you might never get a second chance.

Why haven't you told him to suck it up and take care of you yet? You shouldn't need to care for him hand and foot he should be taking care of you because you're pregnant

He should be pulling SOME of the weight regardless of whether she's pregnant or not.

It is a lot nicer and more comfortable to do more work when she is pregnant though.

Men do get faster and more sick than women. it's proven that they got lower immune system and their hormones makes the illness a bit worse! BUT he should help you... and take good care of you

I don't think it's that they have weaker immune systems, just testosterone.

It is the opposite: in terms of pain, women feel it more than men. He is a brat, is all.

None of that is anything that can actually be measured. It's all well and good to say someone is sicker but it's not really possible to quantify if they FEEL sicker. There are people who are literally dying who still go out and do all kinds of shit and claim they feel relatively ok. On the flip side there are people with the sniffles who lay in bed and act and look like they are dying. Pain is pain and everyone feels it differently regardless of gender. I'm female and when I have the flu I tend to push through until I either get better or collapse. A male friend of my mine had the flu so bad he had a heart attack while pushing through it at Work, a week and a half later he was back at work. My boyfriend gets the flu, he's in bed whimpering all day. Three different people, the same damn illness, three different reactions

He needs to suck it up. He can get his own tissues and haul his own ass around. When you have children you cant play sad and sick anymore. I mean shit my dad had food posioning but made sure my common cold was taken care of... this guy can nut up.

In sickness and in health. Sounds like u respect the vows alot.

hes probably just used to his mommy doing it cut him some slack...

Fart in his face, every chance you can.

Typical guy for ya. But hey, the baby will have an experienced mom! And so will the new baby when you have him/her.

Tell him to do it himself. If you're that pregnant, he should realize he's being lazy and ungrateful.

everyone gets a little whiny when they're sick, but still your the one carrying a child. I'm sorry OP
