Excellent advice for husbands.  Should be sent out by the government as standard ! 
Made me feel less that I was being 'a whingeing baby'  and more that it is a big deal, though not insurmountable.  Will ensure my OH sees it !

[moodymoo]

Ask me how I'm feeling, but don't take ' fine' for an answer !

And def do not ask in a stroppy voice ' whats the matter with you!'

More sex please, I'm sure it would help. (Well its worth a try!)

[Taz2]

Do you mean that's what the husband says or that's what you would like HotVonny?

advice to my husband would be ..if you cant say something positive or supportive keep quiet!

My husband informed me at the weekend that the reason for my ups and downs, which he says he cant cope with, are due to "my age and emotions" (no kidding!)...and i quote "im not interested"!!!!!

I wont repeat what my answer was.....its hard when there is no understanding from your nearest and dearest...how do others cope with unsupportive spouses?

Same here Ria,

keeps tellin me it's all in my head.yesterday was a good day for me but yesterday afternoon i was cold and put the fire on. OH said think of the bills i told him i was going to my moms shortly so ot wouldn't be on for long. he told me to stay at my moms. He sould be careful what he wishescause one day i might just bloody up and go. Then lets see how he gets on then. Think most of them are the same, but when they are unwell they are dying.

Hi Ria,
 
i think they all have their moments, but my husband is fairly reasonable about my meno -don't think he would dare not be 
He can't understand the loss of memory part though, just doesn't see that i can be told something & 20 seconds later I have completely forgotten what was said

hnb

i know what you mean about not remembering that have been said 20 seconds earlier.  i find myself asking.a question and hubbie/sons have answered and then i find myself asking the same question again about 20 seconds later. 

it's running joke in our house that things keep going missing.  if i tidy up, we cant find things.  it's amazing what ends up in the fridge and shouldnt be there .

Its not just husbands tho is it ?

When I hear the words 'whats wrong with you?' from husband,
 daughter and son then I know I'm having a bad day !!

[terriw]

My husband once slapped me on my bum saying "there, there, it's just all those nasty hormones" . I nearly killed him!
