He's so lazy since I had the baby!!
I'm sorry ladies I just have to vent. I am just so sick of my husband right now. I guess I never really noticed how incredibly lazy my husband was when it was just the two of us. But now with our new baby I am just at my wits end.
He expects me to carry all the responsibilities of a stay at home mom and work full time. He refuses to get up with her at night (even though he works second shift so he's already up a lot of the time)
I am seriously running on fumes at this point. I love my daughter more than anything and I never get mad at her, actually she's the only light in my life right now.
I keep telling my husband that I'm exhausted and unhappy and I need him to help me at home. And he keeps promising to. Every day he tells me he is going to be a better husband but he's lazier than ever.
I just don't know what to do. I am so miserable and tired.
I used to look forward to the weekends but it's the same as the weekdays. I still have to be up with the baby and clean up the house.
The only thing he really did to help me was hold our daughter while I am trying to get ready for work in the mornings but this morning he handed her to me and said he was too tired to. I was so livid. So I had to run back and forth between getting ready and taking care of her.
I was so annoyed I just left the house without telling him goodbye. I know it's petty but I am literally so tired it hurts behind my eye sockets. I can't even concentrate at work.
Any advice?
