*Rant*So, when Orion was first born, I got up with him every single night and didn't really care. Well finally after a month almost two, he said he would get up with him one day on the weekend so I could have one day to not worry about it. Well it had been weeks until he did it once last week. Well yesterday I was up super late taking a final, and Orion woke up at 6:45 which he said he had to get up at 7, so I got up and made the bottle then asked him since he had to get up if he could please feed him and he said no because he had to get ready, well he didn't even get up until 7:15. Then last night he asked me to stay up and watch our tv show so I did, then this morning when Orion cried, again at 6:45, I asked him if he could get up and he said no..... I'm tired of being the only one who does everything, and I mean everything. I barely go anywhere that requires him to be with him and during the day even after he comes home, I still feed him and put him to bed every night. I rarely ask him to do anything when it comes to Orion, but it's the fact that he sat down and told me he would get up with him once but doesn't. I get that he works and I don't, but come on. I am so disgusted in him right now, that's not the man I fell in love with. I am so surprised he is doing this with me. And I can't nap during the day ever because I also take care of his other two children 5 days out of the week. I have been spread so thin, and he's the one who wanted me to stay home with them and it would be so nice every once in awhile to get a break, he's still dad. 😣☹️

Men do not get it! I stay home too, my husband just does not understand what I go threw everyday. He has never gotten up with any of the babies at night, I know he won't with this on either. Then he will have the nerve to tell ME he's tired. It's very hard to control my temper with him at times! I totally understand how you feel!

Yes! He does the same shit. And he stays up half the night to. Or his classic line is 'I don't know why you're tired'. Like reallllly! And it's not like he wakes up all night, he's up once around 5-6-7 and goes back to bed. Everyone once in awhile it would be so nice, but they don't get that. And with him it drives me nuts because HE said he would get up one time with him a week, and he barely does that. I get that we are mothers so we feel the necessity to take care of our babies, but that doesn't mean they should just sit there on the side and watch. So frustrating. 🙄😒😐 @harranmommy

On the weekends I have started to just wake my boyfriend up. Like even if he is not doing ish, he is still going to sit awake with me. I am also in this situation and I'm fed up with it to be honest. She just got up at for and I had him just sit here, cause he acts like he is sooooo tired. I am like seriously because I had such a hard time falling asleep I didn't go to bed til after two so I've got less then 2 hours of sleep and he has slept all night 😠 eeeerr. Thank goodness she ate and got changed and went straight back to sleep.

I am the same way, I am either doing stuff or can't sleep so I'm up late as well. Or sometimes that's our only time together. And yeah with him, he's up once and he eats and goes right back to bed! They seriously just don't get it, I wake him up to, but he doesn't get up... And I don't want Orion waking the other 2 boys by screaming. He even woke me up today to tell me the baby was up.... Because I was so tired and exhausted that I didn't hear him. Men I swear... 😒 @momma11-16

OMG it drives me crazy when mines does that. Like seriously you couldn't just handle the situation. Or my favorite is when he is helping out with something and he is like can I please get some help! like we do this all day everyday you can't make a bottle and hold her LMAO.

I was staying home and when I did, I didn't mind it. I felt like he worked my job was to cook, clean and tend to kids. But once I started working everything started annoying me. I do the dishes, I do the laundry, I pick up the house, I vacuum, I do bath time, I cook meals, I do bedtime, I wake up with baby. It's frustrating that I do everything. On Thursday My kids had a dr appointment after I worked so I asked my so to cook dinner so when we got home (about 7pm) I could feed the kids and put them to bed. Got home and he was playing the video game.. 🙄 it is VERY frustrating doing everything on your own! I've started on the weekends when I want me time I'll just leave the kids in the living room with him (he is usually playing video games) and I'll go lay in my bed hahahah so if they cry or want something it's on him not me

I'm so sorry girl you must be so worn out taking care of a new baby plus two other young kids. I wish there was something I could do to help. He really needs to start stepping up, it seems like he's just started dumping all responsibility onto you. I understand that he works and you stay home but that doesn't mean he doesn't have responsibilities to his children 🙁

jr pulled the same crap with me with our first and second kids I already know not to expect any help with this one. He said with our first that he'd get up on the mornings that I worked til 2:30 am the night before, well he's a heavy sleeper and I'm not so I'd wake up and have to wake him up to do it and half the time he'd fall back asleep! sooo frustrating!! you're not alone :( it really sucks that some guys just take advantage of the fact that they know we'll do it so they just choose not to. smh.

Exactly, I don't mind doing most of it... But a little help would be nice. I never ever thought he would be like this... Because he is such a great father to the boys and is not one to be like this. It is super frustrating. He usually tells me to 'go to bed earlier' too, and it's like that's my time or our time. I can't go to bed super early, it's just not me. But oh well. I wish guys could see it on the other end. He also doesn't do much around the house anymore either, which is whatever cause well he works and I don't so I try to get most of it done, but once again a little help would be nice. He hasn't put away a single load of laundry since before he was born 3 1/2 months ago.. He didn't even remember where my tank tops were at. He better snap out of this and help a little or he's not going to like me. He loves Orion and plays with him all the time, but that's what he does, just has fun. Same with the boys. Oh well.. 😒🙄 hope it gets better for you ladies too @emkasting @michellevaldez4750 @ciaramarie

You really need to talk to him. (I need to talk to my SO also) my so is typically gone all week for work so it would be nice to have some help on the weekends. But to not help with kids or around house is frustrating! Most my SO does is rinse his plate off..I do everything else. Some days I come home on my hour break just to catch up on house work.

I have talked to him before and it lasts for a little but then back again. I talked to him this morning after he woke up cause he knew I was upset, I pretty much ignored him. See he used to do SO MUCH around the house and with the boys, idk what happened, he got lazy or something. Like I said I don't mind doing most cause during the week he works a lot but there comes a point. We will see if it changes... @ciaramarie

Same here, I don't ask for much and tbh I think that's where we messed up. Now they got used to not having to do anything. I don't mind cuz I'm not working right now but idk if I'm going to be going back to work or not. If I do he's going to have to deal with it or like you said, he's not gonna like me very much! lbvs!!

I work a full time job and he only works part time but I'm the only one who ever takes care of our daughter cause he gets off work at 11pm when he works then stays up all night playing video games and then sleeps all day til 3 when he has to get up for work. men love making baby's but doesn't ever want to take care of them
