Any other ladies struggle to get your husband’s help with your baby? My husband isn’t really involved with the care of our daughter. He’s gone at work during the day, comes home from work, acknowledges our baby and is off to play his stupid game and sits in the bathroom. He never gets up with our baby during the night, not even on the weekends. I just feel very lost, like I have no support or help and we’re forever away from family. I’ve been trying to talk to him about helping more with her for weeks and nothing has changed. He complains our daughter doesn’t bond with him like she does me but makes no effort to spend time with her.

We talked about me going back to work on weekends only so I could work part time. He said he wouldn’t have any time for himself and it’s selfish on my part to take his free time away from work and even used the word babysitting in reference to him taking care of our daughter while I work.

I just need some serious advice. I’m so close to just flying home to stay with family. I’ve mentioned counseling but he’s too “busy” with work to go.
