Where is MY day off? (vent)
So once again, DH wants to "drop off" Leah on his day off so he can go and work on his car. WHY OH WHY can he not just spend some time with her instead of always dropping her off with MIL?
His answer is "well, I will just bring the pack & play and she can sit and watch"
She does not need to breathe in all the crap that goes on in an auto shop! Sheesh!
I have to fight for 20 minutes to get a pedicure and it's an all-day outing on his day off!
Oh, and BTW - I am NOT cleaning on my day off this week 
I hear the mall calling!

DH told me yesterday that he let me sleep in.... I'm sorry, but if I'm up at 5am with a newborn that won't go back to sleep, taking a nap for an hour after you wake up at 9am is NOT letting me sleep in!

Re: Where is MY day off? (vent)
I hear ya!!! I have taken Paige out a lot. And when I do he has the house to himself, he can nap, do yard work, etc. One day I just wish he can take take her out so i can just enjoy and nice 2 hour nap. Thats all i want...
He is good otherwise, but he will never take her out by himself.

She is still so young, that I wouldn't be surprised or insulted that he finds her a bit boring at this point. Don't worry, as soon as she starts running around I would expect he'll show a lot more interest!

DH does the same thing....he will just go downstairs and go on the computer or go work outside and make trips to Home Depot, assuming that "I" dont want or need to go out without the boys

Re: Where is MY day off? (vent)
I honestly think that SOME Dad's have an easier time doing the "drop off" than Mom's do - especially working Mom's.
I RARELY do anything for myself when I am home. If I have errands to run, it's with my son all the time. DH has an easier time doing his own thing and not feel obligated to my son - he does put in his time though, he plays with Michael and spends time with him a lot though.
I guess it's the Mommy guilt I have.
Like this afternoon, DH is dropping DS off at my Mom's so he can go play softball.

Re: Where is MY day off? (vent)
I threw out my back on Friday and had to go to the drs for X-rays which concluded that my neck was screwed up. DH's response..."well since you are home why would we pay the sitter...you can watch her".
Bottom line...I know how ya feel

I had a very similar conversation with DH recently - I have had no "break" in such a long time. He has no one he can drop her off with when he watches her though. I can't remember the last time I went out alone. It's been a very very long time. I am so overdue for a trip to the mall or getting my hair done. DH is away all week for work again though and on Saturday he's playing golf all day and then going to a concert, so there is no break in sight for me. Maybe Sunday...
