I'm at my wits end, I've got a severe pnd depression diagnosis for which I'm on medication but part of me thinks I'm just really really tired.
I've expressed for dd since she was born and she's bow five months. For five months I haven't had longer than two and a half hours sleep in one go. I'm now getting splitting headaches and problems with my memory. On top of the pnd.
My nights go like this:
10.30pm express and feed dd
1am - dd up and then express again back to bed about 2am
4am - dd up again quite often
5am - express
6.30am - get up and get ds ready for school
In all this time dh has not done a single night feed. He's never got up with the kids of a morning. He works from home unless he's away and doesn't get up until 8.30am most days. At weekends he plays golf all day on s Saturday and has a lie in on a Sunday.
Aibu to think it really would not hurt him to do a night feed at the weekend? I know I've still got to express but I'd be up for half the time and not as frequently. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Some nights - like last night - dd is up every hour and a half. Then my blood sugar went low (t1 diabetic) and now I'm expressing again.
Dh has been asleep the whole time. He puts earplugs in.
