To have told this porkie to DH?

[Merida]

DH came in from his work lunch at midnight last night, pissed as a fart and spraffing all sorts of nonsense.

We have a lovely 6mo DS who refuses to sleep wakes occasionally at night. I always attend to him as I hear him first and DH takes forever to get up, by which time DS is wailing like a banshee. I could count on one hand the times he's got up to him since this sleeping nonsense started 3m ago.

This morning I told DH that amongst other drunken ramblings he'd said he'd do all the night wakenings and let me have a long lie after I come in from my own night out.

Nothing wrong with that is there? Anyone done similar?

YANBU.

Just the one night?

YANBU

At all...........you could have gone for much more :)

YA SOOO NBU!

Wish I'd thought of it myself.

That is called making the best of a bad situation. It is not your problem that he can't remember

Yanbu!!!!!!

It is not uncommon to prepare documents in advance,

If you hand them a scooby snack into non writing hand, when presenting for signature they tend to sign with a smile.

Ha ha. YANBU. Because what you said he'd agree to is perfectly reasonable. he's a father now, he shouldn't be going out on the turps - nor you, mind you.

YANBU, I'm going to steal your idea

YANBU, let us know how it works out though!!

YANBU, but why didn't you go for longer?? Hope you make him stick to it

YANBU but to be honest he should be offering to do that anyway without having to be conned into it, you deserve a night off and a lie in just as much as him.

Ha ha ha - enjoy your night out - bet you still wake up first when your ds cries though! xxx

Nice one

YANBU

It was resourceful and intelligent.

Yabu. He should be taking his turn anyway

Ha ha YANBU

The lie in should be yours anyway.

YANBU but good luck if he never wakes. I find an elbow to the ribs helps them to focus.

I do normaIly get the lie-in, but never a whole night in bed plus lie-in. On way home now so will see how it goes!

Yes, had to make it one night to keep it realistic that he'd have said it.

Night all!

Dammit why doesn't DH drink :(

Love the expression 'spraffing' ; going to use that..

Fantastic! Here's hoping it works!

You should have stayed at a friends!

Sharpen your elbows on the way home!

Oh and in case you hadn't guessed YANBU
