Opinions please, my oh is going to Amsterdam with friends clubbing etc in October when I’m 38 weeks pregnant! I’m a gestational diabetic on insulin and am also on iron for anaemia, he knows I’m vomiting regularly still and have tough pregnancies. I’m exhausted and have a 14 month old and a 7 year old. Due to previous complications I am a c-section which will be latest 39 weeks but I won’t have exact date booked in for another week and a half.
Apparently everyone he’s spoken to including women at his work seem to think this is fine, literally he says no one has said it’s not a great idea to leave me which really bothers me because I can’t find anyone my end that thinks it’s acceptable! We have very limited help, my mum and dad would have the children if I went into labour but as for a birthing partner ?? All my friends and family have children and work etc etc. Am I going mad thinking it’s a pretty selfish and crap thing to do?? not only incase I go into labour but what with looking after the other 2 alone and being at risk of hypos on the insulin I’m really not impressed!! Oh and I’m working full time up until 38.5 weeks! 😳🙈
I think he must have asked the women if they thought be baby would come early or something and they have said no you should go because it probably won’t, if he told them the actual facts I can’t see that anyone would agree that it’s fine!!
When I have the conversation with him I feel like just giving up as what’s the point if he can’t see it for himself, we shouldn’t even be discussing wether it’s ok or not!! If he does come back hung over he’s def not getting any rest, it will be his turn to look after the children while I put my feet up!x
