I’m cracking 🥚 😴 letting newborn cry
I am so attentive to my 7 week old son. I take care of him 24/7 because my husband has a high demanding business and he takes care of us financially. He also cares for the house. My job is to parent but I’m SO tired! I get 1, 2 or sometimes 3 hour stretches at night...3 is lucky. I do ALL the feedings, playing, diaper changes, etc. i get anxiety asking Hubbie to watch the little one when I take a bath...the only me time have...because he believes in letting newborn cry it out 🥺🥺🥺🥺 so I often find myself running out the bath wet and tending to baby.
Husband tries to be supportive by buying a snoo, a fancy formula maker, takes over a feeding once in a blue moon. I’m cracking right now...seriously cracking. He is on an important business call that could pull in good money. I’d ask him to hire help but we can’t due to Covid and we don’t have much family help. I am in a bath and so nervous about baby crying and no one there to help him if he’s uncomfortable. I just want to watch a Netflix show, drink a glass of wine and take a freaking bath. I’m at a point where I’m almost willing to let baby be a little uncomfortable until I’m done if he cries???? I don’t have a baby monitor right now. Thoughts??? Clearly it’s so hard for me to do because I’m using this time to write in the forums
