Husband doesn’t want our newborn outside
So I’m 7 months pregnant (yay!) and have two other children who are 7 and almost 3. This is me and my husband first child. My husband is hell bent on not taking the baby outside for the first few months of his life. He’s come up with the idea that we will have to start roaring grocery shopping etc to make sure that the baby isn’t out around people. I think this is stupid but whatever I’ll go along with it. I can understand the first 4-6 weeks but this man is taking about MONTHS of rotation instead of getting groceries together or doing any errands together. So my mom is taking our family on an all paid trip to this super cool play and kids hotel! I’m so excited. By the time we go the baby will be 2 months old. My husband is upset because he said he doesn’t want us to go and that we are being irresponsible by taking our child to a play and hotel around a bunch of unknown people and a place we’ve never been too before. I told him that we are going regardless. I’m not about to miss out on a vacation with our kids because he’s being overly worried about germs. I know I’m wrong for not truly considering his opinion on the topic. I tried explaining that the baby will be older than 6 weeks so it will be safe but he said “idc what is recommended or what other people do, this isn’t what I want to do”. I’m just frustrated because I’m a SAHM so like how many months exactly is he trying to require me to not let our baby out the house. Any thoughts on how to change him mind or what to do? Our older kids would LOVE this trip and it’s completely paid for.
