I'm seriously about to break down...it is not fair at all that I have to wake up with our daughter…

I'm seriously about to break down...it is not fair at all that I have to wake up with our daughter every single night (she hasn't slept in 4 weeks) and take care of her every single day 24/7, while my fiancée sleeps in until noon and takes a nap every god damn day. I am seriously about to start crying and leave because j can't keep doing this alone...even on nights that I have to work early the next day, I'm expected to watch her...then my mom watches her when I go to work! It's been 8.5 months, and my fiancé hasn't woken up with our daughter once. And he only plays with her about 15 minutes a day. Unless I'm trying to get her sleep (which clearly he has no idea how hard it is) then he likes to get her all excited and keep her up longer!!!! Ugh!!!!

I would raise hell. I can't imagine my husband not getting up like he does. We take turns. One night he gets up with her, and then the next night I get up with her. I think I would loose my head having to always be the one to do it alone. Have you asked him to help more?

@jennatess, yes I have...he said he "can't" do over nights with her because he's too scared and would end up not sleeping and it would make him sick.. I've asked for more help during the day and he says all I have to do is ask, but when I ask he'll either complain, he'll do it for like 5 minutes then bring her back to me, he'll sit her down and let her cry, or he'll go give her to someone else in the house.

@ashbabash18, tell him that is not how this is supposed to work. He's scared he would end up sick from no sleep..but what about you? What about when your sick? Is he going to help then? I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this..

@kellychristine18, I'm seriously about to leave because of it! Like I can move home and my mom would help me...but I can't keep doing this. I'm not happy with him snyway and this is making me so resentful. And his parents (who we live with) take his side every time it's brought up, and they also get on me about her stuff being everywhere or her room not being clean, not being caught up on her laundry and her clothes getting mixed in theirs...and they want me to quit my job because they can't watch Emma when I work...like I'm so over this shit

We both have eight month olds! Crazy! Yeah my husband never wakes up to help at night even if I beg, I've threatened to divorce because I really think getting married may have been a mistake. I'm just need a bit of help, but it's too much to ask apparently! I do everything for my daughter, and he gets to sleep 10 hours while I get not even half that. Then he complains that I "sleep in" when my daughter is finally asleep and I should be getting her on a schedule blah blah blah. We live with my parents and they are NOT even in the slightest impressed with him. I'm a stay at home mom trying to get a job and he calls me lazy and tells me I need to go to school full time, get a full time job, and watch my daughter. How is that even possible?! I'm trying to keep this relationship going for the sake of my daughter. Ugh. I know what you're going through!

@ashbabash18, my opinion? Leave him. At least for a month and make I'm realize. Your daughter is going to grow up thinking the way he's treating you is okay and normal... It's not. You need love, and support, and he's obviously not giving that to you. I just can't believe he doesn't help with her at night. I would be livid..

it's CO-parenting. my bf did this the first few months and i finally said "well if you want your daughter raised by a single parent keep doing what you're doing because I can't handle it much longer"

@kellychristine18, I literally feel the exact same way. Like I'm so unhappy and I'm only trying to make this work for our daughter...except I have the opposite problem with work. They want to pay me to stay home and clean the house and take care of our daughter because they're so upset at how much of a mess the house gets when I'm trying to take care of Emma all day on no sleep. And because my fiancé can't watch his own daughter when I work. And his mom watches her other grandchild during the week Instead of helping me when her other son has the means to put their child in daycare or hire a baby sitter. I don't have that luxury because I'm 21 with no degree and can't work because they won't watch her!

@_akgirl, I've tried that, he helped for a night, and still woke me up because he didn't know how to change a diaper. @jennatess im about to just leave period. Like im so frustrated with the whole thing. And we're engaged and he won't even let me talk about the wedding
