Do yalls baby daddy's let yall sleep in?

so this morning i woke up with the baby at 6 am then we went back to sleep around 8 am. this is how my morning has been everyday for the past 2 or 3 months. even when she wakes up im the night, if shes awake,IM AWAKE. okay so im just setting up the story for yall. well this morning my bf was off of work and i asked him around 8 am to take the baby for 30 mins or an hour so i can sleep in (which i havent done or asked him to do in months) and hes having a hard time getting up so im shaking him telling him to "wake up and take this baby". he finally takes her 5 mins later and shes crying ofc and he doesnt get up, just lays there. i tell him to get her out and theres no point in me giving her to him if shes gonna cry in my ear. he says "see your mama is taking advantage of me bc im off" and that makes me hot so i say stfuu!!. then go back to sleep. then hes like see shes so rude she just talks to me any kinda way. i finally get out of bed and im like ok theres no point to this. IM AWAKE NOW. thank you for nothing. then i start crying, stressed and saying "i need a break too, for months even when you are off of work i wake up when tue baby wakes up and i let you sleep in." then he says i still go to work tho.?? and anyway I took the baby and now im getting coffee. How do yall feel about this??

Yes. We take it in turns getting up with the kids but majority of the time if the kids are awake before and he knows I’m tired, hell take them downstairs before he gets ready for work and then I’ll take over. On weekends we take it in turns. Yes your child’s father may have an actual job, but you also work. I hate it when they say they go to work. Raising a kid is the hardest job and I’d love to see them do it full time 🤣

My husband has the baby all day if he’s off. And when he comes from work he takes him until bedtime and he has a physically taxing job. I would be annoyed that’s not fair to you. You both agreed to have a baby and this is what comes with it 🤷‍♀️

This was honestly me arguing with my partner this morning. He does so much for our son. I get it & I understand he works, but I take care of him all day, all night, for months. For months, I let him sleep in the morning, and I come downstairs with the baby when I asked him literally 1 morning to take our son downstairs so I could sleep for a bit and recharge It’s always a problem! And he says he’s tired of work. I’m tired too and looking after a baby is harder than any job. For example, yesterday I only slept 1h and a half the whole night because our baby just wouldn’t sleep and wanted to start his day at 4am and I was the one who took care of him 🤷🏻‍♀️

Gosh I’m so angry for you! Yes, yes my hubby does let me sleep in for however long I want as long as we don’t have anywhere to get ready for, he lets me sleep in. It’s not even about me sleeping in, he wants to spend more time w the baby coz he complains he doesn’t get enough time w him since he works so much, and baby grows too quick and he’s missing all the firsts, all the milestones and just being around to hear baby laugh and giggle and all the new things he’s doing etc. I’m sorry, he’s an ass. 😭 what a douche.

It sounds like he needs a kick up the bum! You deserve a rest. My partner will always get up early (even on his day off) and will take our daughter for a few hours when she wakes as he knows I'm up several times a night feeding her. Although she wakes him at night he doesn't have to do anything as I'm breastfeeding. So he'll have her a few hours before he goes to work so I can make up for the lack of sleep. The dads should all be pulling their weight. It sounds like he is a bit of a manchild and I'm sorry you feel that way 😡

girls he keeps going! now apparently he didnt agree to anything he says and that he didnt want a baby to begin with. he also said that shes here how so he accepts responsibility. smh i regret starting a family with him

I feel you! I NEVER ever get a lay in or a break. He works during the week obviously but at weekends I still get up to do the night need and in the mornings ... he finished work today at 1pm so I thought great it'll give me a chance to have a peaceful shower/nap etc and he's been asleep since he got home. Honestly so bored of it. I've told him a million times and I've also kicked him out for being useless but he comes back promising to do better then doing the same thing ... 🫠 honestly I feel you though. I always get 'well you're his mum it's your job'

Yes whenever I needed and whenever my baby was ok without me (EBF baby) for the first 11 months. After this my baby starts to be ok at sleeping full night with my partner and no boobs. So since then I sleep one night with baby then he sleep the next one and so I can have a good night sleep every 2 nights.

You shouldn't be asking for it. He is a father and must take the load that goes with it.
