I feel like the only thing i am good for these days is to look after little one... i honestly do feel like no one cares. I will literally be falling asleep in the chair from being so tired and yet no one not even my OH will ask me if i want to go and lay down. Yet his parents who we live with if he does the same will almost immediately say to him to go and lay down. Its very frustrating i have no time to myself unless i managed to get her to sleep and honestly when I do I am so exhausted that i either fall asleep too or just sit in front of the tv just staring at it. No one will offer to look after little not even OH to help me or look after her and if i am lucky the only moment i get to myself is when i ask is it okay to go for a bath...
I just want to scream and cry all at the same time
Yeah i know the feeling, the mother in law basically said that me going to work when i did work that its my time away from little one
Totally with ya! And I’ve even asked the mother in law for help and she’s basically said no x
Nope the only time that they watched her is when i used to work and the childminder doesn't have her. I have asked for help but it just goes on deaf ears and it got to a point now which i dont bother to ask because whats the point of no one listens.
Have you thought about actually asking for help? I agree your partner at least, should offer to help seeing as he's a parent as well. But some men play the 'I can't read your mind' card. So just out rightly say I'm having a bath. Or I'm going for a lay down. Why should you not? No reason. As for his parents I don't believe they should have to help you. But again if you wanted a few hours to pop to the shops or whatever I'm sure if you asked they'd love to spend time with their grand child.
I honestly don't know why people stay with partners who refuse to parent. It's not his parents jobs but it is his. Amazes me 🤤 It's not a choice. I'd make him listen. Walk out the house if I had to lol
