caddie- God caddie that really ****s me too when people get this impression that a baby is there for their entertainment to cuddle and hold etc. Now I just tell people straight out shes tired so play time is over and if they protest I invite them to come back and settle her when shes screaming the house down!
And men have no clue, my Df would do the same because he has no idea. i do most of the settling and cause i have the boobs have to give all those comfort feeds. Df does help out but i think he could prolly do a bit more, i just don't think he realises how draining physically and emotionally being a mother is.
