Last night lil man woke up crying. He did for 30 mins . Gave him some gripe water to ease his stomach. Hubby gets agitated . So I hear him getting his keys and walking towards the door. I asked him where are you going. To sleep in the car he says. I told him if u go don't bother coming back. He always says I'm blaming him but look at his actions . I try to talk . He says I'm leading it into an argument. He says Jordan doesn't like sleeping in his crib anymore .I say find a solution then. I put him in our bed because I don't want him crying then having the hubby upset. And sometimes Jordan wakes up 3 times a night if he's in the crib. I cried most of the night . Thinking what have a gotten myself in to. I'm dealing with a man who has a mental illness. Im not mentally strong. I cry about every little thing. How long can I last. It's overwhelming
@dizz_d, it will get better, it’s hard taking care of a baby. You’re doing a great job. Talking always helps
@alecandfrankiesmum thank you mama bear every time I even think about it makes me cry . I was never like this
I’m sorry you’re having a hard time. I’ve been there as well. It will get easier. I thought Frankie was never going to sleep through the night, but he does now. Unfortunately my man had the same attitude, and our relationship has barely survived. I’m here if you ever need to talk.
Maybe if there are services near you you can go talk to someone. I found that this really helped me while I was going through some down times early on when my LO was born. I know that talking with your husband can also be really helpful, but I feel like getting yourself to a place where you can work things out and gauge how your doing mentally should come first before trying to connect with your husband when he’s in such a fragile mental place himself. Just know it does get better!! Depending on how old baby is maybe some sleep training 🙂
