I'm fully open to being told I'm beingU. I'm sick and tired at the moment so I don't know whether I'm just being moody.
We have a 5 month old DS and DH is generally great. However, he's had a cold for the last week and he's milked every ounce out of it. Bear in mind that I also have a cold, as does poor DS. DH stayed home from work on Friday and lay about the place making a nuisance of himself before disappearing off to bed for three hours in the afternoon. I was out in the evening so he put DS to bed (an easy job) but that was all he did to help all day. He got up with DS on Saturday morning (which I am thankful for) and I had a lie in, but again he spent the day moaning about being ill and not doing any of the housework he has agreed to do (cleaning the bathroom mainly). I did most of the care for DS. On Sunday I said he could have a relaxing day as it was Father's Day. He basically ignored me and DS for the day, playing on the computer and watching tv. I thought as he's at work all week that he'd like to spend a little time with DS but he did absolutely nothing with him. I offered for us to go out but he said no.
In the evening I developed quite a bad pain in my side and I told DH about. Got a blank face and no concern. Later I mentioned it again, again no offer to help with DS or any concern. DH normally does the first feed at night and I do later feeds and get up with DS at 6. Unusually last night DS woke up before we went to bed so I fed him and he didn't wake up again till 6. DH went in to feed him then rather than just getting up with him as I always do he came in and woke me up. I was furious. I felt like he had no appreciation for how much I had looked after him while he was "sick" and I was annoyed at him ignoring us all yesterday. I spoke to him before he went to work and he did apologise but had excuses as usual. Am I beingU to be upset?
