Pregnancy is a beautiful, exciting experience. But it can also be terrifying and full of unexpected moments.

Reddit user u/throwawayoeiw recently shared a story in the r/AITA (Am I The A**hole?) subreddit about a scary experience she had. She explained that she is currently pregnant with her and her husband's first child.

The pregnancy has been rough for the OP. She is unable to drive due to severe anemia and pelvic pain.

The OP wanted to go to the hospital one night because she wasn't feeling the baby moving as usual. She had been trying to make the baby move, but nothing.

So, by 23 weeks, the OP was getting very anxious and thinking the worst. Her husband told her there was nothing to worry about and that she was overthinking it.

But the OP couldn't stop panicking. She was unable to sleep, so she woke up her husband and insisted that he take her to hospital.

At first, the OP's husband refused, but eventually, he gave in because she was hysterical. The whole way there, the OP was crying, but her husband stayed quiet.

When they got to the hospital, the OP was checked over, and thankfully everything was fine. On the way home, her husband told her he was angry with her for the way she behaved.

The Redditor apologized to her husband, but he has been giving her the silent treatment ever since. Three days later, the OP is stressed and can't sleep because her hubby is still not speaking to her.

The OP says she feels bad for not listening to him, but she really thought there was something wrong. Now she's wondering if she's the a**hole here.

The OP asked if she's an a**hole for insisting her husband take her to the hospital.

Here's how people reacted.

"Better to be safe than sorry."

NTA.

"You're pregnant, ergo you're right."

What are your thoughts on this situation? Do you think the OP was overreacting and should have listened to her husband, or should he have been more considerate of her feelings?
