This is a vent.

My DH is sick with a cold. (Why is it that when men are sick they act like the freaking world is ending? Nolan & I were both sick for over a week and didn't complain 1/10 as much!) Anyway. When he wakes up in the middle of the night and needs to blow his nose, he just sits up in bed and does it there. Repeatedly. Which of course, obviously, wakes me up. Why can't he go into the bathroom that is all of 5 steps away? AHH!

I started b*tching last night because when I get woken up I then have to pee and flip over in bed then both babies wake up and kick me for awhile... all said and done, it takes like an hour to fall back asleep.

I feel like he's very insensitive to my needs sometimes, but especially now. Another vent is that we generally take turns putting N to bed, but last night I asked him to do it even though he did the night before. My reasoning was that he's going to be out of town tonight so he'd miss his "turn" but also that I was in a lot of pain and didn't want to sit in the hard rocking chair when I could lay down/be comfortable. He grumbled about it for a good 10 minutes. SERIOUSLY!? I know that he does a lot without complaining (ex: he bathes Nolan, I have done it maybe twice since being pregnant) but hello, he is his father as well! And it's not like I can really do it very comfortably at this point.

Ugh. I'm just annoyed and needed to vent. Thanks for listening.

My DH complained while I was pg with the twins because he had to give all the baths (I just couldn't bend over to do it after about 20 weeks), pick Abby up, do the laundry (down 3 flights of stairs). He also went food shopping, etc.... I honestly hated that I couldn't do anything and had to rely on him... and yes he is the biggest baby when sick too!!
