I wish that when I was “so tired” that I could go straight to bed and not worry about responsibilities for hours at a time..

I wish that I could choose whether or not to change diapers, clean up after myself, or do household chores.

I wish that I could choose when/if I wanted to be an active parent.

I wish that I could choose whether or not I wanted to go somewhere, and if I didn’t, I’d just stay home instead.

My boyfriend & I have a 1.5 year old, and I’m pregnant again. He goes to bed whenever he wants, doesn’t change diapers, doesn’t play with our daughter, and if he doesn’t want to do something or be somewhere, he makes me miserable so that we leave. Or he’ll make me run late on purpose so that I just leave him at home and go alone.

He knows that if he doesn’t do something (pick up his dinner plate, put his clothes in the hamper..etc) that I have to do it.

Tonight I asked him to watch our daughter while I go grocery shopping, and he agreed. The time comes for me to go, and he’s asleep on the couch, and says he’s too tired to watch her.

I’m pregnant, and am a SAHM, but I don’t get the right to be tired? I don’t get to complain. I bust my ass, and keep us afloat.

Before y’all jump on me about him being tired from work, realize that this is every day, whether he works or not.
