He should be ashamed of himself for acting like that. He should know better that his kids were fed! And if he had asked why you were eating take out instead of overreacting he may have known what you just told us… and even if you had ate what you made the kids, you’re entitled to order yourself and the baby you’re carrying whatever the hell you want!

I mean it isn’t exactly fair. We always tell the kids they eat what’s out in front of them and you should follow that rule too.

Maybe your cooking is trash and that’s why he was mad - they ate garbage and you ate good 
Def rude. If you knew you didn’t have enough for both you could’ve made something different or got you both take out. Pregnant or not
I wouldn’t eat takeout infront of my kids if I didn’t order them any. Always wait till there in bed lol

If you were craving specific food before you made the kids dinner, than yeah kinda. You could’ve asked if they would’ve liked anything too & if they didn’t then make dinner.

You’re an adult. You can eat whatever you want. They have been fed.
They are not entitled to whatever you are having.

Depends on what u ate lol did u have ribeye from some fancy restaurant? 
or taco bell?
No you could’ve ordered them something or at least waited until they were in bed, my kids know when there’s food everyone gets something or ask if they want anything

That’s considered rude where I come from.
Was it mcdonalds? Something they would have really liked? Or something they didn’t like at all?
If I knew I was going to be getting myself take out…id probably get us all take out. But thats just me

No! Especially if there wasn’t enough for everyone
I was raised that if you don’t have enough money for everyone or not enough to share, you don’t eat in front of people. Ordering out was fine, just hide it.

I personally wouldn’t eat take aways in front of any kid without making sure there was some for them too, nor would I be happy if some one did that to my kids. I would have waited until they were in bed and hidden it from them (which I totally do to my own kids too)

Jesus Christ, it’s fine. My kids won’t even eat most of the food offered at places we order from so they don’t care. They’d rather I cook them something they LIKE instead of a pizza or Chinese. I can see if the kids complained but if they didn’t care, why should your husband? On TOP of that, you’re pregnant. You can eat what you want, when you want.

Were they still hungry? I always offer to share regardless… And I would’ve eaten in private.

No, you should not feel bad at all. You took care of them first and yourself with something you were craving but didn’t have in the house. Hubby needs to comprehend how pregnancy cravings work

Me personally I’d wait until they was in bed if was going to do that. Or get all a take away. If anything like my kids they love take away so I’d feel awful eating it infront of them anyway

If you made me grilled chicken and shrimp Alfredo, you could have truffles and filet mignon delivered to you and I wouldn’t care! You made sure they had food, and there wasn’t enough for you to eat too. What did he want you to do? Take their food for yourself? Or spend a ton of money to get everyone take out when there was enough good food for them in the house? If the kids were happy with what they had and they didn’t care, why should your husband?

Ok I’m kinda shocked that all you think it’s wrong? She feed them and then got herself something because she’s pregnant and craveing different food. I’ve done it a couple of times. If I want something I’ll get it, kids are feed and are fine

Wow. You made them food. You made sure they ate. You had nothing left over for you and had cravings. You’re not wrong. It’s plenty of times I’ve fed my kids (bio and bonus) something at home and ordered out for myself (and my husband) for my cravings or just because. As long as they are fed is what matters. Your not wrong at all.

I’m sorry but I couldn’t do that. If you were craving something different you should have at least waited until they weren’t around to order and eat it. The kids will start to resent you for doing things like that.

I think the important question here is how the kids felt. Were they jealous/upset or just him? Did you ask if they were still hungry/wanted something before ordering? I dont think what you did was neccassarily wrong but I would be upset if my husband ordered himself food and didnt give our kids the option of what he was getting too and then also ate it infront of them. Our rule is either make sure there is enough for everyone or dont let anyone else see it 
but in all seriousness if you didnt at least offer them some before ordering then you should have ate it in secret after bedtime

I think it’s HYSTERICAL that some of these people are calling you “some bonus mom ” because you didn’t order the kids takeout, too. First of all, they were fed. Second, if there wasn’t any left for you to eat, what were you supposed to do? You could have eaten something that was already in the house, but they probably would’ve wanted some of that, too. You aren’t in the wrong, and I’d tell your husband if he’s so worried about it, that he needs to make sure he makes them dinner or make sure they eat before he leaves or wherever he is.
Also, y’all on here acting like y’all ain’t ever ate something for YOURSELF, and didn’t give your kids any, y’all LYING. Just because you got kids, doesn’t mean they need to have everything you do. It’s okay to do for yourself now and again. And you’re pregnant.
They’re fine, they ate. Don’t let no one make you feel like you did anything wrong, cuz’ ya didn’t.
And all y’all that think she did something wrong, if you’re so worried about it, y’all buy them takeout.

He’s an ass. You are not wrong
What is a bonus kid?
Is that a step child?
Adopted kid?
Anyway… first… you aren’t there to cater to kids.
2nd… they ate and you met their needs.
3rd. Many times I eat whatever the hell I want.
4th. Tell him to feed the kids himself if he doesn’t like it.
5th… don’t allow somebody to dictate what you do or don’t do. If it was a major decision then discuss as a partner should. But for God’s sake… it was just dinner. Tell him to snap out of it

Um. My husband and I do this probably weekly. We feed the kids and order in something for ourselves. I really don’t see the big deal. Personally, im.bot paying for my kids to order mac and cheese or grilled cheese or chicken fingers just becauee it’s take out. Its not like you ordered it for one kid and not the other…plus their meal sounds delicious!

My husband brought me dinner and he and my son ate what I cooked. I rarely eat out and had a craving and he and my son are usually the ones I’m getting take out for. If it wasn’t a bonus child would it be a big deal? If not that’s just not fair.
