I can’t wait till my husband who has been working from home for the past month goes back to office. He helps occasionally during his shift with our toddler and baby, it’s nice seeing his face all day, and he gets to see our 4 month old grow but the overlap of me being a SAHM and his need for a quiet space is extra exhausting.

Being alone with my toddler and baby is way more relaxing than having to worry about every little noise my kiddos make and worrying if we’re being too loud. My 4 month old is going through a grumpy phase and was crying because she was tired, my husband storms downstairs yelling at us telling me that I’m ignorant for letting the baby cry too long because I should know that her crying breaks his concentration. I do understand this but I can’t always calm her immediately especially when I have to cook and also tend to our toddler. Whenever she’s too loud he storms downstairs disrespecting me and he’s usually not like this, it’s making me resent him a lot.

I know when he goes back to office I’ll miss some of these times but honestly it’s so much more relaxing being home with just me and the kiddos. I’m growing extra frustrated now with my baby whenever she cries and I’m never like that when my husband isn’t working. Ugh this quarantine is just so frustrating, I can’t wait for it to go back to normal.
