Needing someone to talk to

I'm 20, a ftm and 31 weeks. I work a part time job and have off about 2-3 days a week in the winter. My bf/baby's father works full time at a factory. We have almost been together a year now. Since being pregnant I've slacked on house work and he does it, half assed after it's been sitting around for a while. I've been trying to help out more,  but just recently my fingers and an upper part of my back have been going numb so it's a little hard. All he wants to do is complain about how much I don't do anything or how much I don't work and how he does everything. He doesn't understand how hard it is to do simple things when I've never weighed this much in my life. If I complain about my back hurting he'll just complain about how his feet hurt from standing at work all day... I just wish he was more understanding. And everytime I tell him it's not funny and it hurts my feelings he just says it was a joke. :(

I do think he should be more understanding. But just try to do as much as u can . i know other days are better others. Also i do not think they should complain about house work if u live there u can help regardless how much u or he works.

I recently had an argument with my bf, who also works full time and me part time. When i was prego now 3months pp, i would do everything all the cleaning and cooking. He always had a hot meal and a clean house every night he walked through the door. And now that we have our son its been alot harder for me to keep up with house work. Its mostly clothes everywhere not trash. But he has the nerve to complain, and im like dude u dont ever get up at night, most days im lucky if i get 5hrs of sleep and thats not in a row. But didnt understand how hard could it be. And i told him well if dont liket the way im doing things then tough ****.
