When does your partner go to the gym?

Now that I am a SAHM I feel quite resentful when my husband goes to the gym on his lunch breaks. I feel like I could really use the break myself. He's told me I can only go work out before he goes to work (so be back before 8am) or after baby goes to bed (8pm) Context - 10month PP Before I was pregnant I'd go running and swimming afew times a week. I cancelled my gym membership recently because I just never get to go (but hoping I can get some local runs into my routine soon)

Maybe a compromise on who gets the lunch time would work better. You could do 50/50 so it feels fair xx

Why has he said you can’t go after he gets in and before the baby goes to bed? Seems really unfair!

Seems a bit unfair you can only go after baby has gone to bed? I go running 3 days a week, my partner gets home from work, showers, and then has 1 on 1 time with baby whilst I go. He goes to the gym either before work or on the weekends x

If he goes before work I go when he finishes, when I go in the morning he goes at night, we just alternate it

@vicky you know I've never even considered this has a possibility, I will suggest this thank you x

@Bethany I'm going to suggest this to him thanks x

Are there any family-friendly gyms near you? My husband and I go together and take our little one with us (we bought a collapsible/portable playpen especially for her). If not, you should definitely alternate so it's fair on both of you x

I know they're not cheap, but maybe look for a second hand jogger pram. That way you could run with baby in the day if you wanted to?!

Why can’t he put baby to bed or spend time with baby while you do your thing? I think he is just trying to make things easier for him not you and that is so unfair.
