Due to go back to work in the morning after a year of maternity leave. 2 30am in the morning currently and I have been up all night as baby has fever
Im annoyed, more sleep deprived than usual and my husband csnt get why.
I woke him to tell him to get the f up and why am I here up with baby when I have my furst day in 5 hours and I've not even slept an hour.

He needs to take over with baby so that you can sleep, and he can stay home with the baby. You need to be ready for your first day.

He does get he why, he’s just feigning confusion as a means of defense for not stepping up in the first place.

Pass him the baby and get some sleep. Tell him to stop the faux naiveté, it's too early for that much bullshit. Hope you manage your first day back ok😊
