About wanting a break from 16 month old DD

[Chilliandchocolate]

DD is lovely but she’s at an age where she needs pretty much constant entertainment and supervision.

To be fair to DH he will have her in the house no problem is I want to go to the gym or shopping or a rare night out but what he doesn’t do is take her out anywhere and I’d really like a chance to chill in the house and catch up on some stuff.

AIBU? I don’t want to order him out of his own home but I’m co Stanley on the go and shattered.

No, that doesn’t matter, @ThinWomansBrain

But I would sometimes like to not be DOING something. I don’t want to be shopping, at the gym, caring for DD or at work.

Sometimes I’d just like a couple of hours of peace and quiet in my own home!

In all honesty yes he does generally struggle to leave the house … it’s always a drama. It drives me bananas.

Book a hotel room with late checkout. A cheaply local Travelodge for £35 a night. I used to do this for a break, it’s heaven, and someone else cleans up afterwards
