So, gone back to do some teacher training and as usual the kids get sick as soon as I start. DH is looking after the kids whilst I'm teaching and is also working shifts. His response to the baby being sick in the night is to shout at me to shut her up grrrrh

When my friends ds was very small he screamed and screamed sometimes at night. He was a very hungry baby. Her neighbour banged on the wall, and she took a bat to it banging back and screamed, "Do you think I want him screaming his head off either"
She never heard them bang again

Am at this! WOuld be seriously p-ed off if dh said anything like that to me! Definately need to have a word.

Very unreasonable.
DH said something similar once and I said, "If you have a way of magically shutting her up be my guest", To which he replied "Just stick her on the boob will you." To which I replied, she's already had that and it's all very well for you that way isn't it you selfish prick.
Or something along those lines. Can't remember the exact wording as was very tired at the time
