I work nights while my husband works days. Daycare is super high here and sitters are even more expensive. The nights I work, I sometimes won't be home until a little after 10 pm. My husband has the hardest time with our 4 month old. He says all she does is scream the entire time and he can't get her to calm down. He says he does the bedtime routine and everything but she will not go down. He gets so stressed and texts me multiple times while I'm at work saying he can't do this anymore and keeps saying that he wish I could just stay home. We can't do that financially and I love my job. I've already had to quit a job I loved to move to this new town and now he wants me to quit because he can't handle our daughter at night. I think it's unfair. Well, he says he doesn't want me to quit but he doesn't know what else to do. I'm at a loss.

She has been super fussy with me before as well but I guess I'm use to it and just know that she'll eventually calm down.
Yeah I've shown him many times how I help her calm down. And when we are together he does it fine. I really have no idea what's going on while I'm gone. I wish I could see what was happening but it never happens while I'm home. I noticed last night her mobile was on the floor and her bouncy seat was flipped over. I asked him what happened and he got extremely upset with me. He said it was the way I asked but I didn't think I asked it in a bad way I just wanted to know why all this stuff was laying around. He said the mobile fell and the bouncy was in his way.
We don't have any family nearby unfortunately. But there is one lady whose husband works with mine that loves our daughter to death and use to be a pediatric nurse. She's helped us a lot so I would tell him to call her whenever things get out of hand but he never does it! Why he won't say. It's super frustrating like he doesn't even want help he just wants to complain and for me to yet again give up my job for him.
My husband was the same way once I went back to work. Is there anyone that can be there with him while he watches her to.help when he gets frustrated?
Omg I found out what was going on. So she's at that age where she's figured out she can scream. Before my husband left for his appointment an hour ago she started doing her screams. He was like "see? She's screaming. She's mad about something. I told him she's not mad she just found her voice and just makes random screams. That was what had him upset the whole time. I swear, I wonder about him sometimes
