I've had our three week old since four am this morning straight through as dp Working till eight pm since 9 this morning. He's home but had four pints - two beer and two of strong 8% proof cider while out and now poured himself another. He still wants to look after baby from now till two am as normal (bbay 3 weeks old). Im livid he's slurred his speech and no way can he have the baby and I'm desperate for a break. I wouldn't mind if this was an event but it's a normal Tuesday ffs. He thinks I'm overeacting and he's fine. Aibu? I'm very upset.

I wouldn't give anyone a newborn after one pint nevermind five.

No way should he have the baby. I’d be super cross with him. Does he have a problem with alcohol generally?

YANBU. He’s been stupid and unfortunately you’ll have to pay the price. I’d be fuming. You’re not going to get that break tonight, could a grandparent or friend come round and give you a couple of hours to sleep tomorrow? Don’t even bother arguing with him. Stay on alert for your baby and give him a big bollocking tomorrow.

I might drive to my mom's. I think he does but he doesn't. I'm so angry. I havnt drank and been responsible for ten months due to baby. I'm not sure asking for restraint is that hard.
I'm more shocked that he thinks it's fine!!! Wtf

I like to add that he had a night off since baby was born for a mates birthday and was so drunk b7t it was pre arranged and I'd organised myself for him not helping. But this is just a sodding Tuesday !
