Sorry again gals, no personals. I just want to explain about my DH.
He is normally the BEST dad. For the last (about) 6 weeks of my pregnancy, whenever he was home he would take Ardyn and leave me to do whatever I wanted. Whether it be go out, sit and read, sleep...whatever. When he is home now, he does the same and leaves me to look after Bailey. Although sometimes I do miss Ardyn, and wish that he'd take Bailey so that Ardyn and I could have some time together just the two of us. This incident was a 'blip', but it just happened to be a BIG blip.
As far as sleeping is concerned, when it was just Ardyn, I was fine to do all of the night feeds as I would just rest when she did during the day. But now that I can't do that, I am so run down having not slept more than 3-4 hours in a stint for the last 5 weeks. This , and the 'incident' and I went ballistic.
So today we have had a good talk. He has agreed to do at least a couple of night feeds a week (I love the bottle) which will give me a chance to get at least 6-7 hours in a stint a couple of times a week. He is also MORE THAN AWARE of how stupid he was on the weekend, and understand and accepts why I'm pi$$ed off.
He also now understands that I need time with Ardyn. That although he thinks that he is helping by taking her and being 'superdad' it actaully makes it harder for me during the week, as I am the bad guy with all of the rules, and never get to do any of the good things. In fact she told me that she wants dad to put her to bed becasue he's fun and I'm not....noice!!!!!! So this weekend I'm going to get more time with Ardyn.
It's all good. I just slapped him across the head a couple of times.....LOL.
