How can I get my husband to be less clumsy and not put our 7 month old at risk?
Yesterday was our DDs christening day. My husband was holding her next to her cake for photos and then picked up the knife to cut it which DD then reached out to grab and cut her hand. Fortunately it was minor but bled a lot and was very upsetting (for me at least), she wasn't at all bothered. Where is my idiot husbands common sense?!
Then, today, he dropped her while reaching for something to change her nappy. She was concussed, spaced out and cried for over 30mins. After an ambulance trip to A&E we're told she's fine.
I'm fuming. I can't believe I married such a prat with no common sense. Today was terrifying, but I think yesterday with the knife could have been much worse and we were incredibly lucky it wasn't more serious. I don't understand how he could be so clumsy to drop her today. It wasn't that she rolled off her change table or that something else distracted him, he just dropped her.
How can I forgive this and ever trust him with the baby again?
This morning had already been hell for me as I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (after a traumatic birth due to a midwife making serious mistakes, ) and had to go through a 'Reliving' session this morning. Having to return to the hospital today was dreadful.
But my biggest concern is what do do about my prat of a husband. He feels awful about it, but so he should. What can I do to stop this happening again? Should I trust him again?
