Husband helping with baby 👶

Just wanted to rant !! So I know husband works for us and our future and I get that he cares but I literally cannot stand him atm , the lack of help and care I get from him for our baby is beyond me … he changes no nappies no outfits barely baths her and rarely feeds her … as a mother and a wife it makes me so frustrated I spend everyday and all day with our lo and as much as I love bby time I barely get any ME time …. I also wanted to move out and have a place of our own but I guess that’s not on the cards bc right now I have a village to raise my lo and part of me wants me and my HUSBAND to raise her as much as I love the help he doesn’t get the idea of team work 😤😩🫠 what to do I’ve tried speaking about this already and he said he’ll change but hasn’t .. 🙁

My partner has never bathed our daughter or fed her … she’s nearly 8 months (feeding for nearly 2)… for the first 8 weeks of her life he kept telling everyone she slept through the night 😂.. she didn’t and still doesn’t but he falls asleep on the sofa every night so wouldn’t even know if she woke or not! As for ‘me’ time, wow, what is that lol? I can barely do a wee alone… I’ve been away 7 times this year (3 with partner) and he had the cheek to moan he wasn’t getting to see any of us and that he’s missed out on half her life, I told him, I am not going to sit around at home all day for him to come at half 6 to spend less than an hour with her… I have two older children as well and I will NEVER get this maternity leave again so if I can go away then I will … sounds selfish but I do everything, he doesn’t even know how to make a bottle, if I pop out (hour or two max!) I have to make sure I’ve prepared a bottle and set the camera up (if she’s in bed)… honestly I feel your pain …

Oh and not to mention we’re moving house soon too and I’m packing up the whole house alone as he has no holiday left … with a baby that doesn’t like to be put down 😂😂😂😂😂

Have you tried to ‘assign’ a time to him to take care of baby alone? Sometimes men don’t get your rants so I’d say just demand that he does it say one hour a day! Don’t say he doesn’t know how - just learn & get on with it!

But that’s his baby too right?
