To be annoyed that DH won't get out of bed?

[pikeletwithbutter]

Because it's honestly starting to drive me mad and I'm not sure if I'm BU?

Apart from when he has to be up for work DH never surfaces before 9.30am at the very earliest. He often works late shifts as well, and will sleep later those days too. He didn't get up until nearly 10.30am yesterday!

I'm an early riser admittedly, but I'm fed up with always having to chase him out of bed. We also have a puppy and a cat, and nine times out of ten it's me who gets up to feed them, take puppy out etc.

I've tried explaining so many times how much I would appreciate him getting up at a decent time occasionally, but it never happens.

AIBU? Because I'm really getting fed up with it.

And yes, we had the reverse, as well. Years ago when we both had different jobs I'd get up to work from 8-11 and when I came back he was sometimes still in bed. Depending on how annoying my students had been during those lectures I'd be a bit grumpy about his lie-in but that was pure jealousy.

You feel like his mum? That's because you are behaving like his mum.

While it's not the OP, the PP whose H will only get up early to go to golf but does no domestic work or childcare - this man is a lazy, selfish tosser and not worth keeping.

Sorry, YABU from me too. You presumably agreed to have a puppy! I presume DH does his share at other times? What are you going to be like if you ever have a toddler? You have to be able to cope alone sometimes!

Or is the issue that it was your DH who really wanted the puppy and you let him talk you into it by saying he would do all the work, you won't know it's here, blaa blaa!

I think that's the question really mittens.

I have two kids one a toddler who is very hard work, and I can manage the morning and to get ready with him around, which I do most days when dh leaves early for work.

I think I'd be very annoyed to have to get up every day and do it while dh lounged in bed.

YABU. 9.30am isn't late to get up neither is.10.30am. I often don't.get up until then on.my days off.

I don't understand needing the puppy to be watched so you can get ready put it in a crate, it's not a human baby. You sound a bit controlling and it would wind me up. I'd probably stay in bed too.

Why dont you stay up later then 5/6am is a horrid time to wake up what are you missing in thise 3 or 4 hours before everything is open?
