Leash we are not a good example if you are looking for ammo!
DP didn't ever get up when she was tiny. Ever. That said, I never asked him to. 2 1/2 years later I can distinctly remember each and every time he has ever gotten out of bed when needed: 1. She threw up while sleeping between us and he took the sheets off; 2. She was crying for a drink (while between us) and he went and got her a drink of water (plenty of grumping at me involved); and 3. two nights ago when she wanted a drink but didn't want me to go, so said "Daddy will get it" ( well done child!).
Mostly I don't mind as it doesn't happen much and generally he has to go to work the next day while she and I can sleep a bit longer. When I know I have to get up to go to work as well or I'm sick, then there's no sympathy.
