I think I need to just rant.
So a little context; I’m 20ish weeks pregnant and I have a 2yr old. Last week I was sick all week but nothing where I couldn’t still do everything I needed to do. No fever no upset stomach just an insane cough and sore throat. THE DAY that I feel better my husband said he’s not feeling good. But I know exactly what this man has. A man cold. He’s sniffling, blowing his nose, tiny annoying tickle cough. But this man has been asleep or just laying on the couch all day. I have a migraine today but I still left the house to get him his breakfast burrito he wanted. I was in a bad mood bc it’s 107 outside which has escalated into much more. I’ve done everything for my son and him all day while feeling like shit myself. Cleaning the house. Our son asked him to play with the ball inside and he was like buddy daddy’s sick I need to rest. I had an attitude yes bc wtf? You’re not that sick get up and play with your kid. So I said just stand there and kick the ball or sit on the floor? “ He’s like mommy has an attitude let’s just go to the playroom. If I get sicker bc of this and can’t work tomorrow that’ll be a problem”. I just hate how as the woman / mom / wife. I’m just naturally expected to take care of everything even when he can even when I’m also feeling sick. Anyways that’s my rant. Love my husband to bit but when he’s got the man cold I wanna kick him.
