So im 39 weeks today n I don't get why it is so hard for my bf n roommate to help around the house! Bf helped a little today but then after I cleaned the whole kitchen I started having contractions...nothing regular but they hurt. So after dinner I asked for the kitchen to be cleaned again. .after 2 hours...I gave up n did it myself n now he doesn't get why I'm mad! 39 weeks! Why can't I get some help! Ugh!

Join the club dear.. I have 2 kids and a husband I follow around all day. My husband works, and I don't so I have no problem cleaning the house, I don't really expect him to clean at all, but I'm constantly cleaning something, especially with kids. I know it's hard at the end of pregnancy, but it really does help progress things. If you're cleaning and getting contractions, KEEP cleaning, you might put yourself from inactive labor to active labor. I would make a list of chores for your roommate and BF to help with, and make it very clear you want them done. Or a good way to get them to pay attention is by not cleaning at all, let it get terrible (hard to do that, I know) and then they'll see how much YOU do and that they need to help you out.
