DH wants daughter to sleep in her own room

DH has come home from work today and demanded we are putting our DD (9months) in her own room because he's not getting enough sex (Hmm)

I don't feel ready to do this as I suffer with CFS/ME so if I don't get enough sleep I can't function. I also BF so I do all the nighttime wake up calls and have her in my bed for about 25% of the night but she sleeps most of the night between 8 and 8 I rarely struggle to settle her she just sometimes will wake up when I try to move her back to her bed!

So DH wants her in her own room starting tonight which means I will be trying to settle her in there and it will reduce my sleep and hers which will make us both cranky.

So AIBU (or selfish) for keeping her in with us until we reduce night feeds?

Well for laughs and giggles obviously. Get off your high horse and learn to ask a quetion in a polite way of you want a proper answer.
Having said that, I think OP has bowed out and thread has derailed quite a bit. So I'm bowing out myself from this one.

So he is going to get up a few times every night to bring her to you and then settle her again? Nice of him to offer.

Does he think breastfeeding is something you have chosen as a hobby in preference to having sex with him?

I must be very strange coz my 9 yr old still hops in with me most nights🤣. I’ll worry if he’s still doing it at 15.
