Daddy phase

My daughter is going through her very daddy phase at 3 and half years old. Since she was born I've done the lions share of everything because its always been mummy mummy mummy. Now I don't know what to do with myself. Also feel sad and rejected after so long of imbalance. Am I normal to feel this was or a terrible person? What if she never wants me again?

This is completely normal, and what you're feeling is too. Be kind to yourself and try to enjoy it while it lasts. Maybe do a list of things you'd like to do? I find that helps me when I get the rare time off!

@Maria thank you for replying. How long does this phase last? Her dad is out for the day and she is not happy about it!!

Ah, I can't remember really, I think it's intense for a couple of months maybe and then things start getting a bit more spread between both. Is she in nursery or anything that can distract her a bit while he's out?

This is where we’re at in my house too, it’s making me feel really rubbish as well
