We have one car each, mine a 3 door hatchback and quite low to the ground which I bought well before dcs were in the planning. He's got an estate which we bought after we discussed to ttc.
Whilst pg I mentioned we should swap cars when lo has arrived and he agreed.
Ds is now 7wks old born after emc so I'm still a bit tender and struggle to get him into the rear seat and strap his car seat in. He can't go into the front because the airbag can't be switched off. Furthermore we have a large GSD cross and physically I cannot get the baby in the car with the pram in the boot and the dog. He's too big to sit on the front seat and he can't sit next to baby whilst I drive as it's too dangerous if I have to suddenly brake and he might fall onto lo. I do have to take dog in car to go to the woods as walking would be too far.
Now I asked dh to swap cars with me as all he needs it for is going to work (20min drive) and he doesn't need the space whereas I do. He refused stating that he feels like he's sitting in a bathtub (wtf) whilst driving my car and I should just cope with it.
This morning he took his car to work knowing full well I have a GP appointmnent and I struggle getting the lo in my car because of the cs wound.
Aibu to think he's being selfish driving the big estate whilst I have to struggle with my little hatchback?
