Hi mamas! Congrats to all of you having your babes! I've been mostly lurking, but its helped a lot to know that there are others out there going through the same things.
I just need a place to vent. At 36.5 weeks, I'm super emotional and today hasn't helped.
This morning, in a 15 minute period, the following took place. DS started vomiting all over the living room, DH was in the bathroom. I had to get the dogs out(they try to eat the vomit, its sooooo gross). One of them has been on rest for a bad knee. Unfortunately, they both got out and chased after a squirrel. I started to throw up the small amount of food I really had been needing to get in me. DH comes out into it all, lets the dogs in and the dog who had been on rest (and who is DH's baby...) is not putting any weight on his back leg. I'm recovering from puking, trying to get DS in a bath to clean off and DH decides to go into crazy mode and all angry at me for letting the dogs out together. Right...like I'm not feeling crappy enough about it. He collects himself pretty quickly and apologizes for being an a-hole, but STILL, why the hell is that the first place he has to go?!
I take him to work and have a totally depressing and non productive day... third day in a row without a walk. I did schedule a bunch of appointments I needed to, DS got some rest, but the house is trashed.
DH just took the dog to the vet. This is most likely going to cost $2000 to fix the dog, which is $$ we don't have right now(the reason he was on rest, to see what it would do given some time...) and I had just finally put my money worries at bay realizing they weren't doing me any good at this point in my pregnancy.
Anyway, when I picked up DH and he's all distant because he was "worried about the dog all day"(oh, and our puking son...but it seemed like an afterthought).
I'm working on turning a breech baby so that the HBAC that DH actually wanted in the first place can take place. Everything seems to be trying to get in the way of it, but I want it bad at this point, but I need DH to be present. All I can think of is that this is just going to be an excuse for him to focus on something else. Ok, so we have 3 weeks, either the dog goes on rest again and DH worries about him every day, he goes for surgery and DH worries about him every day, or goes for surgery AFTER the babe is born and he checks out when I need him watching DS. Great...he SWORE he would not find a reason to check out this go round (LONG story about DS, but lets just say it was pretty annoying) and is continuing to say such, but when he gets all distant, which is doesn't do much at all anymore, I get worried. And I really need his help, unfortunately. I need lots of help right now.
I'm so weepy and all over the place, so if you've read this far, THANKS. I'm hoping its just a bad day and he comes home with good news from the vet...

Sorry it was so crappy for you. I hope your dh can man up and realize what's truly most important.
