Dh scared to watch baby alone

[Raiseyourglass26]

Dh will be watching baby (3 months old) tomorrow for a few hours as I'll be out and he's told me today he's really nervous about doing it himself. He is really hands on with her at all other times and has spent time alone with her before, so I don't understand where this has come from and be can't explain it. Aibu to expect him to get on with it tomorrow or should I cancel my plans?

Poor fellow admitted he felt nervous! That shows he recognizes what a big responsibility it is and not (necessarily) that he wanted you to change your plans. Assure him he will be fine and then go go go!

YANBU.
No.
That's just not good enough.
He has to learn - just like everyone else.
Let this slide now, and you could have an incompetent man on your hands.

I felt the same way when they let me walk out the hospital with DS I was petrified!
