My husband wants to feed him and get up in the middle of the night ..because he works so much and I stay home. He spends all his time working and spending time with us. But I definitely wouldn't expect him to do it every time.

well you know rob works more than me and we both go to school we completely share responsibility but night time is my time with my baby lol I love it its my routine. My baby doesn't wake up ever at night any way but I'm on a routine where I get up twice a night to change his diaper and make sure he has a fresh bottle. I don't see the big deal with me getting up in the middle of the night and letting my husband sleep.

To be honest, I fight with my SO often about this issue. I work full time & so does he but I've always been the one that wakes up in the middle of the night to care for our son. I've always thought it's unfair but he swears that he can't hear him. To be honest though, that's probably the only time that we fight about our son because other than that he's very attentive. Being sleep deprived is never fun though!

My man actually likes to change his diapers it's like their bonding time it cracks me up lol. I guess I was more curious about how taking care of your baby solo at night makes you feel. I've never felt mad or bitter at my man for continuing to sleep peacefully when our son wakes up. Truth is I would rather get up with him anyways. I hate missing out on anything and I adore the sleepy smile I get from my beautiful son when he wants a diaper change or a bottle in the middle of the night.

I guess I wasn't completely clear, lol. My fiancé helps ALOT he loves our son so much but I just don't let him worry about it at night. When he comes home from work after working construction all day the first thing he wants to do is help with his son. On the weekends I get to sleep in as long as I want and he hangs out with our son. It's amazing to have a partner that supports you 100% I really wish that every woman had this because maybe they wouldn't end up so tired during the night.

my husband works full time too from 6-4:30! and helps with my lo at the middle of the night not bc i ask but bc he wants to he says is his son and he wants to. but i feel bad cuz i feel that i have to let him sleep since he is the provider for our home!!

@b3autifulm3ss I understand he needs to get up early and he works at a K-8 school and takes care of kids all day but hello you have your own kid now!!

You seriously read my mind set on my news feed the past week! I see sooo many ladies complaining about this! My son turns 1 next week and my fiance has never woke up with him I would not allow it!! He works 7 to 5 everyday mon through Friday and I feel the same way about them needing their rest! I was a stay at home mom for the first 7 months and I've been working part time since then and I still would never expect my fiance too. And since us ladies do it every night it's easier for us because we're use to it and have it as a routine. & I feel like my son wants me at night and in the morning because he's use to my comfort at those times. I don't like my man waking up, cleaning, or cooking. I feel as if it's my job to do all that even if I'm working too. I honestly love being a housewife and enjoy everything that goes with it 💕
and thankfully when he comes home every night at 5 he WANTS to play Legos with our son, WANTS to change diapers & fights with me on who gets to put our son to bed because we both want to! lol and this goes with my #1 advice when someone tells me they want to have a baby... is to find a man that WANTS to be a father 100% & all that comes with it!

@andrewsmommy, dang fing righr!!! drives me nuts!!!

hahahaha I cant help but laugh at this post! My husband busts his ass too (he owns/runs/works for his own company but that does not mean that he cant do anything else! I dont make him change diapers, feed him, wake up, or anything but he needs an active father too! Thats all I'm going to say…

i dont know what i would do without my husband he even cooks when im too tired to. our household is not a traditional one but thats what makes it special

I'm a stay at home mother, and my fiancé works full time, plus over time when he can, as well as helping with his friends work to get even more money for us when he can. I complain, since when he is here he hardly does anything with our oldest and with a new baby on the way, it's even more stressful, but at the end of the day he works his ass off, so it isn't like he's doing nothing. I see where you're coming from, and see where the women that complain are coming from. While I don't expect him to get up in the middle of the night, anymore at least, I do expect something from him, a diaper change, feed her, something. There's weeks that goes by where the most he does is holds her, or tells her "it's okay," when she falls down and thats frustrating to me. While I definitely couldn't do the work he does all day, so I give him props, I think our child deserves care from both of us. As with any family.

my husband works full time and still manages to sacrifice some nights for me every now and then he helps with diapers too. i told him that he should help a while back because he needs to build a bond with his children so that they can grow up to trust both of us as caretakers.. i personally think this way is beneficial because everyone contributes in the long run to making the home a happy place

Same for me. My SO works from 8am-330pm. I don't ask him to get up in the middle of the night to help cause all we do is argue. Over a bottle sometimes! It was easier when I was breastfeeding but baby started to latch wrong so now hes formula fed. But he acts like he can't help at all. I shouldn't have to ask him to change a diaper either, just do it! If he can come home, get ready to go to the gym, but back home and play video games all night until 11pm, he can help! Just like he told me when I say he's my son, I DIDN'T MAKE HIM ALONE!
