Help pls

My baby is now 5 months old and I am the only one at home with him all day my husband is like yours works full time, out early in the morning and gone all day and is exhausted when he gets home, what we do and have done from the beginning is when my husband gets home, we swap, I go do a few bits round the house and make dinner while my husband will spend time looking after the baby but by looking after I don’t mean just feeding and changing, he pops him on his play mat and does tummy time with him, he sings nursery rhymes, plays making silly faces and sounds, he might give a bath or read little books or google stories if you don’t have the books like the 3 little pigs etc and do the voices for the characters, it will help baby to be excited to see dad when he gets home which will be a boost to him when he gets home, he doesn’t have to do this for hours on end just for a bit of time each evening while you go do something else

First I would say give it time, some parents just take longer to bond even when there aren't things in the way such as hospital. Second, any time baby cries on needs something, ask him first if he wants to tend to baby before you just jump in - be careful not to make this seem like your forcing it but just giving him the opportunities. Third, (which i guess should be second really) is ask him if there is anything he wants you to do to help out

@Sarah i do the second thing you mentioned, I’ll always ask, if due a feed (i formula feed) id say im going to warm a bottle do you want to feed him this time and I’ll do the next one? And the same with nappy changes and if he’s crying ill say do you want to try settle him back down or will I?
