My husband always talks up and down about helping more with the baby but on his days off he is either gone put with friends or stays home to nap or veg out on tv. I am still waking up for night feedings and let him sleep through the night in the hopes he will take LO for a bit during the day so I can have an uninterrupted nap but if he does, he always makes comments about being tired or how he doesn't get to sleep in on his days off. Am I wrong for being annoyed? Anyone else have a similar issues? What did you do?
Sounds rough. Josh thankfully doesn't play video games too often but I notice the minute LO gets fussy he wants to hand him off like "does he need to eat?" And I'm like "he just ate..." Then if burping doesn't work after like 2 min, he doesn't know what to do. We just have to work on these men... 😩 they need to learn patience😒
@ladylis92, yeah that’s how my hubby is also. Even if he sees he just ate he’s like are you sure he’s not hungry? 🤦🏻♀️ no he’s not hungry. Give his belly 15-20 mins and if he’s still crying then I’d try again but not after 5 mins with no burp. Most the time it’s just trapped gas or he’s getting tired.
It’s a bit harder when you breastfeed because your the meal. If you decide to give a bottle every now and then you can get him involved.
Girl SAME! My husband does offer to take him but he seems to get frustrated easily when our son is crying and he can’t figure out the reason and of course since I breastfeed as soon as I start feeding he wants to play his game instead of asking if I’d like him to take him again when he’s finished 🤦🏻♀️
