hormones are getting the best of me :(

Hubby just left for work and I'm upset and sad. I had my last sonogram Monday at the specialist and he wasn't able to make it..I thought it's okay bc i have an appointment with my dr Friday and he's off so he can go. He hasn't really been attending most of the appointments due to work. And normally I'm okay with it. But now it's getting harder and my last week's I expressed that I need him there. We'll yesterday he called me from work saying they need him to work bc someone left out of town for a family emergency.  I just started to cry. I was and am really upset. He also decided that he wanted to go out for drinks with the guys right after work and failed to tell me. So I'm sitting waiting for him to get home so I can cook him after nd quick dinner and he's out drinking! I didn't even want to be in the same room with him bc i was so upset. I don't feel like he's trying hard enough to get the days off  for appointments.  Idk..I just feel alone right now. I'm feeling the pain all by myself...The emotions...The Dr's appointments. Sorry for venting. I'm just so exhausted.  :(

No problem :) even tho our hormones get the best of us some times we have to remind eachother of seeing the positive things in every situation....& yes maybe he did make a mistake but they do deserve that little outing with their friends after working so hard always. And shopping always makes me feel better that's for sure. My first pregnancy was up & down for me but thankfully my husband and I got to experience our second one together and this one was a huge surprise!!! Count your blessings always and stay positive BTW hope you find some good finds :)

Thanks for responding ladies. I do plan on talking to him ash. I just need to get these emotions under control bc they are just everywhere right now. Hahaha. Mommy2b. You're absolutely right. Normally that's what I tell myself. I'm not working and he's doing what he can to support me and get things ready for the baby. I'm not even mad that he went out drinking bc i know he occasionally needs that get away every now and then. I think i was more upset that he didn't communicate he was going out. Anyway. You're right though things could deff be worse and have deff been worse in the past with our previous pregnancy. These hormones have me feeling some type of way. Lol ill go out and do a little shopping today and I'm sure that will make me feel a little better. Thank you for the positive advice. :)

Sorry to hear that! I do get emotional too but have to understand as man of the house he is trying his best to provide for you and your family...he probably feels sad and doesn't like to see you that he probably feels guilty but us as women and mothers or firt time mommys have to support him also because they need the support that they are doing everything possible within their reach right now. As long as he is there for delivery is all that matters I think. With my first one my hubby wasn't able to make it yes I was sad but knew he couldn't for x reasons and knew he felt the same way. But thankfully after that you will put all that aside forget about it and be able to enjoy your sleepless nights together lol. Cheer up mom things could be worse :)

That is sad :( sit him down and tell him how its hurting you emotionally.  
My partner missed one appointment because it was his first day back to work after holidays- the day I get my appointments he tells work he won't be in those dates.
Tell your guy to get his act together or you'll bring someone more supportive to the birth ... he'll soon step up - xx
