I'm really fucking cross but not sure if it's because I'm knackered!
We have a newborn (9 weeks) and a nearly 2 year old. A couple of dogs and horses. I'm on mat leave, husband works FT, not stressful but long commute.
Baby's got a bit of a cold and wouldn't settle unless he was laid on me all night. So it's not been a great one. My husband normally takes the dogs down the field and drops 2yo off at nursery which is a big help to me. This morning he didn't get his arse out of bed in time so couldn't do any of this.
Do you think I've got unreasonable expectations? I've managed to do everything now but tbh the baby had just settled and it would have been nice to get a bit of extra kip! Husband had a full nights sleep as far as I know.
Should I be doing morning kids / dogs while I'm on mat leave or should husband help? He doesn't argue and say he shouldn't help but we seem to have these occasions where he doesn't get out of bed quite regular!
