Sleeping In
Does anyone else’s partner do this? He says go ahead and sleep in on Saturday, and he’ll get up and take care of the toddler. But when I wake up he hasn’t changed her diaper or clothes, fed her, made coffee... So basically I get to do everything I normally do in the morning, just with a little extra sleep and a much crankier toddler because she’s been sitting in pee and is hungry 😫
ETA I feel like this post may have come off too harshly. My husband brought her downstairs and was playing with her, they were doing dress up (he had fairy wings on!) and coloring together. He didn’t just get her up and ignore her, they were having fun, he just wasn’t thinking of the practicalities. So when I came down and asked if she’d had breakfast he said no, and as soon as she heard the word she wanted to eat, and when I picked her up to put her in her high chair I could feel that her diaper was heavy, so I had to wrestle her to change her diaper (because she just wanted to eat). I’m not saying it to excuse it, I know he should know better and do the care things before the fun things, but yikes. The comments really assumed the absolute worst.
