I (34f) am 36 weeks pregnant with our second child. My first is 2.5 years old.
My husband (38m) in the past month or two picked up golf with some of the guys in our neighborhood. They’re all great guys and I’m actually really happy he’s bonding with them because it’s been a really long time since he’s had male friendships.
I WANT him to have this time to himself. But I’m also 36 weeks pregnant and he’s been going golfing every Friday night which leaves me watching our toddler alone all afternoon and evening.
Yes, I am completely capable of watching my own son, under normal circumstance. But I’m fucking exhausted. My body hurts. I’m so over being pregnant. Even lifting my son into his car seat or high chair or walking him up and down the stairs feels like so much work rn.
None of the other guys in this group have small children or pregnant wives. So I’m sure I sound like the only nagging wife who wants her husband home. My husband is amazing when he’s here and I’m sure he also needs some time away but fuck, I’m just like THIS IS NOT THE TIME.
I need support at home in these last couple weeks.
AITAH if I ask him to stop going out until (weeks) after this baby is born?
It’s also not like he’s just going to play golf. It’s golf.. then dinner.. then drinks. Gone from 3pm-11pm, like maybe compromise and just do golf, or skip golf and go out after our sons in bed. Idk. Being left to parent alone in this state feels like too much mentally and physically for me. I don’t want to take away this fun new hobby and friend group he has, but I also want to feel like a priority in these last few weeks of pregnancy and into my first weeks of postpartum.
Please wait...
