Actually,that'sa bit of an exaggeration. She's not mean to me: will give me hug and a kiss if I ask for it but is always saying cuddle Daddy up, what's Daddy doing, want Daddy , see Daddy etc. And when he is there Ifeel like a gooseberry. It's really hard as I look after her most of the time, work 3 days whereas he works maybe 5 or 6, sometimes 7. I hardly ever miss her bedtime (once every month or something) whereas with him itwill be 2-3 times a week. I just feel like a slave who does everything for her while he gets all the rewards. Part of me thinks it isjust because I am around all the time, she takes me for granted but I have just gone back to work as well (in Jan) and hoped that might make abit of a difference. But it just seemed to make her cross with me. She seems also to blame me for his absence: the other night we were having dinner with my brother and she started going on about how she loved Daddy and he had no food. I think she thought if I made him some dinner he would come home. She's just 2 by the way. All the other posts I come across are the other way round i.e. Mummy is best and Daddy can get lost. I know I need to be a grown up about it but I am just feeling really down tonight. I met them in a cafe tonight after work and after about 30 seconds ofexcitement I may as well have not been there. And to be honest I think my husband felt the samei.e. Ifeel like a gooseberry. I felt so sad I left and walked home and am now hiding up here. I just feel like what's the point. I feel so silly writing this butI didn't think this is what being a MUmmy would feel like.
