STUPID DH!!! - grrrrrr

beckamouse wrote: okay. yesterday DH and I were supposed to go register for baby stuff at babies r us after he got home from work. i was excited. he came home tired and with a migraine so i had no problem saying we'll go some other time. but then the man turns into a boy and says "When I drop off the apartment application on saturday i can just register by myself."

it took me a minute to process what he said but when i did he got the good old "I'm sorry. What?!" he looks at me, totally clueless as to what he just said and goes "Whats wrong?"
this is basically how the conversation went after that

"You can't register by yourself! Don't you dare!"

"Why not? You think i'll do bad?" *him sounding defensive*

"No! Don't ask me why not. Thats a stupid question!" *me being hormonal. i do that alot lately*

"You said i was stupid!"

"Asking why you can't register by yourself is stupid!"

"Why can't I register for baby stuff by myself? I thought it would be a nice thing to do for you."

"Well it's not and i'll be pissed if you do that. Very!"

"Well, give me one good reason why i can't do this."

"Because its OUR baby. Not just yours...not just mine. OURS!"

*blank stare then...* "So?"



i'm still trying to figure out where he missed the point of this being our baby and this is something we should do together...as a couple...


men are weird *no offence to any guy that reads this. hugs to all of them*

alice&arik replied: that's funny! It is so much fun to register with someone!

beckamouse replied: it really is! and he doesn't seem to get that. i'm taking him with me after my next ultrasound next friday. i think he will be in the mood to then after he sees the baby.
if not...TOO BAD! he's going anyway we don't exactly have a whole world of time to get this done

CantWait replied: Doesn't sound the greatest conversation to me. Have you tried to explain to him calmly what registering together means to you?

I bet he'd understand Hugs, darn those hormones are awful when pregnant

beckamouse replied: he text messaged me an hour ago saying that after my doctors apointment on friday next week we are going to babies r us to register together because his friend brittany (and my friend too) explained to him what i was trying to say.


he said we'd make a day-date out of it and he'd make dinner afterwards to appologize for being a doofus....not that he needs to but why tell him that? :grin:

CantWait replied: That's too funny. I'm glad you're dh came to his senses. Big hugs to your friend That was really sweet of her

CantWait replied: P.S. have a great time

A&A'smommy replied: LOL sorry it definitly is something special the only thing is when we went my MIL and my neice and nephew went needless to say I had a 20month old STUCK to my hip (she didn't want anyone else!) until my MIL bribed her to go play it was not much fun. I hope you two have a WONDERFUL time together!

beckamouse replied: my mom asked if she could go and i told her i wanted it to just be matt and i because we haven't really done much between the two of us when it comes tot he baby. he's been to AN appointment and missed the first ultrasound, the first time we heard the heartbeat and i dont want him to miss anymore. (besides...i still feel like he owes me after the carseat incident.....boys are so strange!!!!)

A&A'smommy replied:
I agreee they are strange! Do you know what your having or are you guys finding out?

beckamouse replied: i am hoping to find out next friday i am dying to know...any advice for an exhibitionist baby on friday?

At my 20 wk u/s, we were unable to tell, so we opted for the 3d u/s.
Everyone told me to drink OJ before so I did, and the tech tried for like 20 min to tell, and he just wouldn't cooperate. Finally about 5 min before she was done, I got up and litterly jumped up and down to get him to change positions I was dying to know, and wasn't about to leave still not knowing what I was having. Sure enough it worked!!!
Good luck on finding out Hope your little one is more cooperative than Conner was.
