Ok so I’m currently at my mums house with my 2 year old and 4 day old as there’s construction work happening at our house. Obviously can’t have 2 small kids around all that dust.
Theres a 3 day car event on in our area and my husband wanted to go to the first day.
I had no problem with that since we’re staying at my mums, I had some help with the kids.
However he decided last minute he’s going to the second day with his friend which has left me alone for the day with the two kids (my mum had to work) while also trying to recover from a rough birthing experience.

AIBU for being annoyed at my husband for basically acting like he doesn’t have kids and heading off for 2 days leaving me to try and manage everything?

Oh insult to injury, he just text me pictures of him and his friend having lunch in our house with food I’d prepped and frozen before giving birth so now I’m gonna have to cook when we get home.

sorry for the rant. I’m just exhausted, in pain and feeling very taken for granted

I had to re read your post (my fault). I initially saw it as 2yo and 4yo and wondered why you needed help. Then I read the bit about difficult birth and went back.

Yeah - 4 DAY OLD! I was annoyed at DH when he had to go to work when I was a few days post partum but I certainly wouldn't be happy with him swanning off for a jolly. YANBU.

And as for the food you prepared - that's another meal he's cooking for you both!
