I was a 3rd worker for 6 years, I always brought breakfast home to my husband and kids in the mornings if I stopped for food thats just common sense lol. Its okay to be upset with food especially when your pregnant :rofl: i cried over cheeseburger dip when I was 8 months pregnant that I was too sick to eat during dinner so I was ready for left overs because I dreamt about it and come to find out my inconsiderate husband ate it all in the middle of the night​:rofl::rofl: i was bawling.

No you’re not I’d be pissed and I’m no longer pregnant granted I am 6 wks pp but even if I was not I’d still be upset like that’s not cool at all imo

Have You Said anything To Him about it? Yeah He Should at Least ask You, Buf He also Can’t Read Your Mind. Just Bring it up To Him, i’m Sure He’ll Understand.
i Loved The “I’m Just Hungry, okay!” :black_heart: Lol

Why is he in a routine of getting meals before coming home? You stated that you are hungry. Why aren’t you making something for all of you. He knows that he isn’t going to get a meal when he gets home. Sounds like communication issues on both your part.

Rude and disrespectful

How rude!.. seriously tho tell him to bring you some food too, this mumma wants food.

He just got off and didnt think about it. Just tell him u want something next time he stops.

Wow and hes gonna eat tasty treats in front of not only his child but pregnant lady. I’d leave him :woman_shrugging: if hes like that I doubt theres much else too impressive about him if he doesnt know how to be considerate.

How rude that’s what you call TIGHT

He should call and ask if you want anything. Just talk to him and tell him that you would like him to bring home food for all of you

How fcken rude if mine did that I’d throw it in his face :joy:

Say to him wheres mine then

He’s a selfish Douche canoe

Maybe he assumes you ate already or cooked something. Just tell him to ask you next time. Also maybe you should be making dinner for everyone if you are a stay at home mom…

Maybe text him:

“hey babe! Can you grab me something to eat on your way home?! The babies and I are starved!”

Men aren’t mind readers. He just worked all night and is just thinking about food and sleep.

It is inconsiderate, but at the same time, let him know you want something? Being at home, you’d have food at your disposal, so of you were hungry, he’d figure you’d make yourself something. To me, that’s just common sense.

Is he autistic? If so he wont unless u specifically ask him. They dont pick up on social clues too well thats y i ask.

Maybe he assumed that you ate by time he gets home .so he gets himself something to eat so not to bother you
How about right before he gets off text or call him to bring you both something to eat . Easy as that

He could just be completely oblivious to the fact that he should at least ask. Let him know if he gets food to see if you want anything. Or before he leaves for work let him know you want food when he’s off.

That’s rude. I work nights & if I stop for food, I always grab something for my son & my boyfriend. Even if they don’t want it.

There are so many things about this… pregnancy, fast food, young son and late at night- do these things go together? Maybe she has gestational diabetes and shouldn’t eat crap. Second, is she not cooking? Third, are they not communicating? Fourth, what does “nights” mean and what does he do?.. 11pm is different than 2am or 7am. If he’s an Uber driver, that is different than a nurse or someone who works shift work. It’s difficult to give an opinion when there is limited info.

Oh no that’s not ok. One thing if he’s eating it when your not around but to eat it in front of you??!! Hell no! Especially while your pregnant!

My partner is the same way. He never thinks to do things like this, even though I always think of him. It is rude but some men are truly oblivious. He clearly needs you to tell him in very simple English what you want him to do. Some guys really are that clueless even if they are smart. Good Luck!

Your hubby isn’t thinking you might want something too.
Try calling him and ask him before he gets off work that you feel like having a Hamburger. Maybe just maybe he will start calling you to ask, if you need something from a fast food. Dont hurt to try

That’s very inconsiderate especially with you being pregnant. But even if you weren’t he still should text you to see if you want anything. My Hubby works late too and we always check in with each other to figure out dinner, either I have something made for him or he picks stuff up on the way home.

Have that convo with him. I cannot ever go home or to anyone’s house with food for myself and nothing for anyone else. If I don’t have enough I’ll eat it before going inside. It’s his wife and kid, he could atleast call and ask. Definitely speak to him about it and if he continues, take it from there.

That’s rude, insensitive, and selfish. I’m sure there are more words that would describe his lack of thinking about you and your son. Does he expect to eat what you cook?

I wonder if she’s said anything to him about it. Communication is key, and if he doesn’t know it bothers her, he won’t think anything about it. If she’s said something to him, and told him it upsets her, and he’s still doing it, that’s another situation. At that point, it is inconsiderate and rude. But just because he doesn’t think to buy them food, doesn’t mean he’s trying to be inconsiderate.

I think maybe because I worked the night shift for 27 years, I don’t think he’s being rude at all. He’s tired and hungry and doesn’t feel like cooking himself something before he goes to bed. He’s not a freaking mind reader. Ask him if he would pick up food for yourself and the kids too. Although that could get expensive.

I say if this is the only thing he doesn’t do, leave the man alone. He works nights which is never an easy schedule. Men can’t read our minds, if you want something say something. Also I actually think it is considerate that he buys food on the way home instead of expecting you to have food ready when he gets home.

What time does he get home? My husband worked the night shift and did not get home until after 12 midnight. The children were always in bed and had been fed earlier in the evening and I had also eaten earlier. I never had a problem as I did not have to prepare him food and could go to bed early if I wanted. If I did want some food I always told him to bring me something and he did. All I had to do was ask.

Sounds rude but something else is going on. Did he by any chance suggest bringing home cooked meals to work and got a no? Baby on the way should be a reason to save.

You are not being overly sensitive. It is rude, inconsiderate, and selfish for your husband to stop, and bring home food, and not offer you or your son some. I suggest you have a heart to heart talk with him and express your concern. It would be nice occasionally, if he would bring you and your son food. A little kindness goes a long way. After all you expecting his child.

Your husband works night? I’m assuming he either gets off really late your son should be in bed and he probably don’t think cause he probably figures you ate. Maybe tell him next time can he call to see if you want something. Or maybe if he gets off early morning why don’t you make him breakfast and you can all eat together. Just talk to him

My boyfriend says I do the same thing. I work nights and sometimes I just want a burger. But he is never awake when I get home. So no I don’t think about him cause he’s asleep and I know he doesn’t like a cold burger that he reheats. So I’m not purposely forgetting him. Maybe that’s your husband too. Although it sounds like you are always awake when he gets home so yeah it’s a little rude if you know your partner is going to be awake

Well, depends what time he gets done work! If it’s after you and your son go to bed, wouldn’t you have already eaten? Maybe you should just have leftovers there for him to eat when he gets home…healthier, cheaper and you won’t feel bad that he’s eating take out in front of you🤨

I couldn’t eat on front of someone without offering…

Some men are giving and selfless. Some are self first. Others are purely oblivious - most of the time. Remind him a few times that you would like to be included once in a while. Exclude him the next time you have the chance. Life’s a compromise when you are married. And hopefully he has other fine qualities.

We were always taught not to eat in front of others. That is so rude to sit and eat in front of you and your son.
