dirty house..

Im so frustrated.. I hate when my house is a mess. My boyfriend tries to be clean for me because I ***** alot but no matter what, he always leaves some type of trail behind him.. now im due in 3 days, I have a six foot long couch literally PILED with laundry, my carpet needs to be vacumed, my floors need to be swept, my sheets need to be changed and im way to sick and pregnant to keep up and now my boyfriends mom is coming over on Wednesday and my house looks disgusting.. I cant do this by myself and now its gonna be WAY harder because my son is coming home to a messy home and im gonna be way to busy and tired taking care of him. I have way to mych anger and anxiety from all this..

Yup, cleaning agency sounds great for those who can afford it. I don't like other people cleaning up my things anyhow, which is why when my mom & aunt offered I turned them down.
Lol & yes, my bf dies the same - work ago day, comes home & still cooks. Lol that's why I don't expect him to clean (even though he dies the kitchen)
Good luck momma! ☺

Its ok. Things could be worse!  Its great your bf understands how the mess bothers you.  Maybe just sit down and talk to him and say - I have a list of chores...let's put on some music and do them together.it will only take you both an hour if u work together. Im sure he Wil help if he has been good about it so far.

I'm in the same boat & due in 3days as well. I have a 5yr son too... clothes were all on the couch, floors not vacuumed, etc. I just decided to do it myself. Started having contractions back to back a couple hours ago & since my bf is at work, thought I'd hop up & get it done just in case. It was a false alarm, but I'm glad my living room is clean now. (The rest of the house was already done)

I'm in the same boat girl....I'm exhausted and tired and my house is dirty and I want to clean it but never gets done...I pick up here and there but it really needs a good cleaning...I just can't find the strength with working all day and then coming home I just want to relax...and I'm only 24 weeks so I can only imagine your way more tired than me. Good luck girl I'm sure you will become a great supermom :)

Oh my.. I dont know what I would be doing with a two year old right now! Im gonna have to do just that.. take one step at a time. She would definitely help me but shes will be with her mother who now lives with her and is suffering bad from alzheimers and things go bad when shes been out for to long. Im just gonna have to ***** it up and get it done little by little. I start school in January and my boyfriend works so im gonna have to learn to be supermom! Thanks for sharing my frustration. It really does make me feel alot better.

I would just take a deep breath I know how it feels. why Dont you ask his mom if she can help you? I'm sure she would be glad too. with my first one I didn't want anyone's help. I remmber she came to my house and cleaned when I was about to have my first and I was so mad I was ticked but now I'm not even scared to ask for help. I wouldn't be ashamed she knows what your going through. I would do what I could then just let her help you!
