Genius ideas to let me sleep in hotel room?

[InterferingOutsider]

We're on holiday. Had DC together in twin room two doors down from us. DC1 didn't eat supper as felt unwell. DC2 did, then went up before dessert. She's been vomiting ever since - really violent, not much left but can't keep a mouthful of water or dioralyte down. DC1 has now started.

I'm now sat wrapped in my duvet in an office chair, but can't lean my head on anything. There's a boxy thin arm chair which is even more uncomfy and has a lower back. I'm going to have to sleep on the carpeted floor aren't I?

Hope things are getting better op. But you do sound a bit of martyr. Do you think his behaviour is acceptable?

Maybe just lie by the front door? That way your husband can wipe his feet on you as he comes in and out.

Your children are now old enough to realise they have a shit dad and will remember the time they were ill and he "cursed them and went back to bed." What a prick.

This. What a vile man.

Im unable to see why you are even with him.

Sometimes mumsnet makes me really sad and angry. Op your husband's behaviour is absolutely appalling. Being a sahm is neither here nor there. You are all on holiday, aren't you?

I know people here jump to 'ltb' at the slightest provocation but I would seriously consider it if my husband were so selfish and showed such utter lack of care for me and our sick kids.

You won't be able to sleep while your kids are vomiting anyway, make coffee and just get through the night. When you get home divorce your vile husband. Really hope they feel better soon

I hope you managed to get some sleep and DC are on the mend.

In a healthy relationship with a decent co-parent you and DH would have taken turns being with the kids and sleeping, in shifts, equal time each.

Also, explained situation to Reception and asked for a camp bed and extra bedding to be brought to DC's room.

Failing that, removed bedding from your own room and made up a bed on the floor of DC's room.

Obviously you get home and divorce the arsewipe. There is no excuse for his behaviour. Or for putting up with it.

I hope your dc are feeling better and well enough for the journey home.

I too would like to add the chorus of voices telling you that your dh is utterly useless and his behaviour is totally unacceptable.

Sounds like you might need A&E though

After one night of vomiting, are you serious?

I don’t see you being able to get them home on a train today though op. You might need to book an extra emergency nights stay. Your DH is an arse.

Can’t believe you are using avoidance tactics when your husband is mentioned.
I have no advice for you because you are an enabler of your husband’s behaviour towards yourself and his children. What are you teaching your children by putting up with this?
Sadly the situation you are now in is a consequence of your own actions.
Why on earth would you put up with it?

O.M.G. When will this stop?

As long as you're married to a man who curses his entire family for wanting his help when they're sick, it's only going to get worse.

Apart from money, what does he do?

You're on ducking holiday so actually, not this week theyre not. They're his. Put them on the train tomorrow with him, go to the buffet car and keep walking!

Did you manage any sleep and how are your dc this morning?

You can't travel if they are still so poorly. Can you stay another night?

Sips of water only is best. Bit late now but I would suggest get the pillows from the bed and lay them on the floor to sleep on, but too late now. Hope all goes well on the journey home

How are the kids doing OP?

I hope a little better and you're able to get home. My DP miraculously sleeps through any vomiting that happens at night but when he is awake, he makes sure DD is safe and comfortable. I am trusted more to look after her as she comes to me for comfort and I do a better job but I don't think you're situation is like that. You've been left because he doesn't care or have concern for any member of his family. You've been designated it all. This is unfair.

Not right now but when you have chance, take stock and think if you would want your daughter to live your life. If it's a no, make plans to leave.

I really hope everyone is ok.

@InterferingOutsider I so hope things are better.
All the posters talking about leaving your husband- give the OP a break. Hardly an easy decision at the best of times. Middle of the night with 2 ill and children (one with SN) and a horrendous journey booked for tomorrow , no way.

I've reported @Beefcurtains79 's post. Someone is struggling and your response is to use the opportunity to make a cheap joke ? Why ?

So your dh was in the main room and going to sleep, so didn't need the key? Yet he kept the key so you couldn't come back to the room?

I honestly hope you'll reconsider whether this relationship is worth it.

Too late now, but pushing the twin beds together might have made sleeping with the sc doable

Their dad refuses to look after them if they're ill.
What a c*.

I'm sorry you're having a tough night, OP.

I'm sorry you're married to a complete and utter arsehole who thinks they're you're responsibility only and not his.

I'd rethink your marriage once you get through today, tbh.

Fucking hell OP, your bar is so low it’s underground.

You’re making excuse after excuse. Like the key: If there’s no second key call him, or get the staff to call the room to wake him up. Or get the staff to use their master key to let you in.

It takes quite a bit of pressure to break a rib but you can pull an intercostal muscle (the muscle between the ribs), which can be very painful. It doesn't last for too long though, like any pulled muscle.

I hope your DC are feeling better this morning and you all managed to get some sleep. Apart from your husband, who is a waste of organs. I hope his next shit is a hedgehog.

DH won't look after DC if they're ill, he's buggered off to bed after cursing them and me for asking him to come and help.

This is up there with some of the worst examples of abuse and neglect of your family, the people you are supposed to love, that I have read on here.

Utterly unforgiveable.

OP, start your escape plan. Show your children how to value themselves and don't live your life with someone who thinks so little of you and them.

Hope the kids feel better this morning and your DH is suffering somehow. Make full use of the breakfast and get him to sort out accommodation for tonight and rebooking train tickets.

Please tell me he came along early to take over and let you sleep and shower ?
