im a first time mom and hubby is a cop who works nights. I am the primary person taking care of our son since I’m on maternity leave which means I’m up all night and day with the baby while he works nights and sleeps during the day. He doesn’t take care of the baby. He might spend an hour with him when he wakes up from his sleep. Lately we have been fighting because my leave is ending this week and I don’t feel comfortable going back to work yet. Our little one is up ever 1.5-2 hours at night. Still and I am pumping around the clock to keep up with him. I don’t see how I will be able to function yet alone drive to/from work..... I’m exhausted!!!!! My eyes burn and I can’t function with daily tasks...
Every time I try and have tho conversation with hubby he starts in with he will be fine he will go to daycare during the day or just give him formula and the problem is solved.— I don’t want to give formula we committed to breast milk so why switch now? And as far as daycare goes it still doesn’t help me at night- it just means he gets to sleep during the day( it’s convenient for him)
I don’t know how to get him to understand what u am going through... help!!!
