So many excuses

As soon as the baby goes down for a nap, put a camera on the baby and take care of yourself. You can even pull the baby into the bathroom and do your thing. Being the default parent does suck I must admit.🩷
This really sucks. So frustrating that feels like you are invisible. How society thinks women are natural caregiver , and keep giving whole life without getting bare minimum. Bare minimum is respect and appreciation for doing everything everyday . Just tell him you are already in shower and can’t wait . Store can wait .
@Kila this is what I do when Hubbys working I either wait for a nap and bring in baby monitor or I bring in his bouncer in w me and play some music so he’s got something to listen to. My man helps great when he’s here but I have to find ways to still get shit done when he’s not.
@Kellie yep, exactly.
It's so frustrating when it's just like Mum will do it. It's our job and then we have to expect the Dad's to babysit and ask permission for them to help with their kid and at the end of the day doesn't matter because Mum will just get it done Mum's always get it done.
omg. Vent all you want girl. I’m not going to lie, I’ve got a great hubby but there’s been times I’ve flipped. There is no balance which I still find it hard at times. We have to be super human
@Renee literally
Disclosure: I’m the very straightforward friend so please don’t take anything I say in a bad way! 😂 Im not the controlling crazy wife but I do straight up tell my husband what he’s going to do and when in reference to our son. I know a lot of men don’t like to be controlled but sometimes they have to have that direction to actually take action. For example, if I want a shower and he’s playing the game or on the couch doing nothing I simply put my son in the same room and let him know I’m taking a shower. I don’t ask I just do. You shouldn’t have to ask permission and you most definitely shouldn’t have to ask a father to watch/babysit his child. In my opinion, it’s not babysitting if it’s your own child it’s just being an active parent. At the end of the day, it can be so frustrating feeling like you have to ask for things all the time; I can totally relate to that. Have a conversation with your husband and tell him he’s got to step up in his role as your partner in parenting!
Reach out if you ever need to talk girl! We are all here for you❤️
@Shyann yesss but some men still make u feel shit house about that sadly I'm thankful the partner I have now is phenomenal with all of that stuff. I get plenty of time and they not even his kids but definitely, being on the flipside of it. Its hard
@Renee The men that give you shit don’t deserve the women they have! If you have to beg to be seen or heard in a relationship then it’s probably not healthy. If they won’t change after bringing it to them, I don’t see the point in putting so much time and effort into a relationship you aren’t valued in. There are great men who will like yours, love children who aren’t their own sometimes better than the bio parent can. Some women just need reminded of their worth! You are ALL worthy to be loved, appreciated and treated with respect! If your husband/ man can’t see that then find someone who will!💯
Once baby goes for a nap/bed bring the baby monitor into the shower room. I did that with my 2. If u don't create breaks for urself no one will give them to u unfortunately.
Amen! Yes, it does!
