I'm having an issue with hubby that I'm not sure how to address without sounding like a dick.
😐😐😐
I understand in a parental relationship both parties can feel like they are doing most the work. I get it.
But I'm having the issue that I do almost all the work while hubby thinks he does and because he thinks he does most the work I'm not sure how to express that I need more help.
😧😧😧
Now don't get me wrong he's a great dad. and he tries. But he only does one or two bottles and diapers during the day. His argument is that he handles her at night. which on the beginning he did. But we are very lucky and our 7 week old daughter will sleep 6 to 9 hours straight at night already and has since about 4 weeks (we've talked to 2 pediatrician's so please don't tell me to wake her) which is great. But because she's not waking up he sleeps all night and just wakes me up the first time she fusses in the morning and I have her all day. He will be around and he will hold her but that's it. and most the time I have to hold her. Then she stays up all day and late at night (she sleeps from 4am to about 10am) and it takes me a while to fall asleep after she's settled so I don't go to bed until 6am then he wakes me up to deal with her all day again while he sleeps till 2pm because he took the night shift" even though she doesn't get up.
plus all my family is giving him all this credit v for handling the nights but he isn't doing anything! then they think I'm crazy for looking so frazzled

@bbyenolan22, talking to someone about who does what with the baby is your right. Maybe he should do what you during the day and see how time consuming and arduous it is

No he doesn't work. He did but he quit when the baby was born because they wouldn't give him time off to stay with me so I supported it. But now he's in this weird depressed funk and won't get a job.
I'm in the middle of a disability case because I have a lot of medical conditions and can't work and I've been having to work odd jobs to pay our bills @phasion
