Is my life over??

[spilla]

I'm sitting home alone with 2 kids in bed. DH gone to a party that we were both invited to, except I couldn't go as I have a 6 month old DD who is exclusively breastfed and party is miles away.

Tried to DD to take the odd bottle but have given up as it was stressing me out trying as she used to become hysterical!!

This is the second party / great night out that he has gone to alone whilst I sit at home. he doesn't even think about me, off he goes to have a good time. Probably won't be back until the small hours.

It isn't a trust think with him as it's a friend of ours (both) 40th birthday party so I know there will be loads of our friends there. that makes it worse somehow.

Is my life over - cos right now it feels like it.

No no no!!
Give it a few months (weeks even) and it will all be fine.
Hard work but fine.

(Seriously though I would never ever let my hair down again after I had dd. How wrong I was!!)

Doing what kama??

I mean what-in the pub,at the gym,learning how to fence,flower arranging....

Oh right.
(That would irritate me.)

Well hey,each to their own and really don't want to start a row but I would assume that my dh would a) want to be with the baby and b) want to be with and look after me.

Thanks for the messages they have cheered me up and made me realise that some women have it worse than me.

Clubbing - No chance! it takes two to make a baby and two to look after it.

Well hey kama,if you are all happy with the arrangement,that's all that matters.

(My dh abroad most of the time so can't do much at all)

spilla, 6 months is still very young. As others have said, it's a shock/loveley thing for you both. Just give the bugger another 6 months and come back to us if he hasn't changed.

But he will have. My thoughts go with you 'till then.
