50:50

Whoever said parenting is 50:50 has obviously never been a parent. I’ve been with my husband over a decade before we ever married. He’s my soulmate my best friend and my biggest annoyance. He works hard and I’m a stay at home mom. He works out of town mon through fri therefore it’s just me and baby all week. No help. No family. No friends. Just us. With that said... EVERY momma deserves a break every now and then!! Every dad or partner should allow the mamas to sleep in just ONE of the 365 days and HE get up with the baby. Nope. Why would he do that?! The baby is “MY JOB”. Yes, those were his poorly chosen words. I’m not going to narrate the back and forth because he says this a lot.. and quite frankly I’m sick and tired of asking for help. “Hold him for just a min please” “why? Just put him in his swing.” Or “oh my god you can do that with one hand babe.”

I appreciate everything he does for our little family. But where’s my appreciation? I’m not “sitting at home all day” like he chooses to believe. I’m busy raising your child! And to be honest, I’m beginning to resent him. I shouldn’t have to beg for help. I shouldn’t have to justify the dirty dishes or the pile of laundry. And I shouldn’t have to convince him that one child is enough for a few years. Im not putting myself through that and who knows if we will have another one by the way this ones going. I needed to get this off my chest and I have SO much more to say but unfortunately I’m the only one who watches the baby so gotta go
