...to ask DH to take DD asleep in her buggy while he does a couple of things?

[Thankyouandgoodnight]

I am 28 weeks PG and DH had a lie in this morning until 9am (I will tomorrow) and then he kindly took her to the park for 45 mins mid morning. Now 12ish and DD needs to sleep and will do well in the buggy either out or at home. DH is going to local shops to buy bucket & spade and then to the station to meet a friend of his. I am planning to sleep while DD does. He asked if he needed to take anything with him while he was out and I said 'would you like to take DD' (I thought she might like an outside sleep in the gorgeous weather but is fine without!). He said no so I said that was absolutely ok and then he got in a strop and said he would take her and I said that it really didn't matter and to cut a long story short, he is irritated with me and has taken her and with the comment 'I will just have her for the whole day then' - meaning I'm not pulling my weight?

YANBU he's being an idiot. Perhaps you could point out you'll be looking after your other child all day every day for at least the next 22 weeks so it's only fair?

wish i was there i love pushing a buggy....

going out with my friend today and i have already told her i am pushing the pram...!!!

maybe i should start a business, of afternoon stroll... ie taking babies out for a walk...

Goodness! You all sleep a lot.
One of the most contentious issues in a relationship, this sleep thing.
Personally, I would let him go and meet his friend alone and then sleep when she did.
He obviuosly sensed disapproval in your tone

So he didn't get up till 9.00 and then took her to the park for less than 1 hour and that means he's looking after her all day. What time did you get up? You probably had her longer that that while he had his lie in. YANBU. He wants a fun afternoon with his pal and the bucket and spade! How old is he? He should be bonding with his dd. That's what I tell my lovely dh when he wants to nip off and the children want to go with him (but he's not keen and his eyes are silently asking for my help). I just say that sounds lovely, let's get the car seats

I think, give him child free time today and you have some tomorrow!

they really dont have a bloody clue at times. my own dh is usally great and takes dd1 to dancing on a saturday morning, last week he also took dd2 along. when he got back he asked me in a really patronising way if i had enjoyed my rest

because doing 2 loads of washing, hoovering and dusting from top to bottom and sorting out the kitchen is a really lovely rest.

I would have said "cheers" and snuggled back up under the duvet. Don't feel guilty, he should have offered to take her in the first place.

Well, by the time I'd tidied up and retrieved all the things he had texted me that he'd forgotten, I got a 20 min sit down before I have to go and meet them for lunch, so my sleep didn't happen and I AM SO TIRED AT THE MOMENT.
