My husband has a fucking meltdown every day he’s alone with rose because she has to be constantly held and talked to. I don’t know what to do because it’s not like I can quit my job.

Tell him "this too shall pass" it's hard for men they do better when they are older. Speaking from experience . My husband loves hanging with my toddler

@ecahanes, she just cries for me constantly and I wish I could fix it. But I can’t unless I’m around.

Have him hold her when you are home too that will help

@n_favors, I just talked to him about today and he feels like it’s not even because I’m not there. He feels like she knows that if she makes any little movement, he’ll come running so she’s kind of taking advantage of that. Which idk if that’s even possible

Get a carrier that he enjoys wearing so that he can be with baby and do stuff for himself too. Leave a blankie that smells like you so she can have it for naps

@kambam, we have a carrier, but he never uses it because he works from home and has to be sitting so it’s not really comfortable. So I think he just stresses because he has to work and take care of her

That's definitely stressful. Maybe one or both of you can switch your schedule at all? It gets better but if one of you or both of you aren't having your needs met then it can get bad.

@kambam, I’m working the minimum amount of hours to get my health insurance through work, so that’s the bummer part.

You may qualify for state if you cut back too though. Idk that's tough. No family I'm assuming.

@kambam, my husband makes too much. Which I think is stupid. They don’t care what you have to pay for.
But no, not on Friday. My mom could but she thinks my husband is an ass (long story) and wouldn’t do anything for him.

Well that's stupid...she can't be with her granddaughter for you?! Or herself? Or your daughter? Ugh. Doesn't have to be about hubby. How selfish.

@kambam, we won’t let our daughter be around her boyfriend who is emotionally abusive and she thinks we’re the ones in the wrong and that my husband is manipulating me into thinking my family shouldn’t be around my daughter. But really it’s just her boyfriend. She’s narrow minded. She almost moved a state away for another guy when I was 7/8 months pregnant.
