To be little upset at dp

Me and dp have been together almost 4 years we have our ups and downs but mostly ups, we have a ds who's 3 with Austim.
Now for the problem dp has had 4 3-4 day trips with friends men and women. He's going away in September again for 3 days.
My best friend asked me to go away for 5 days with her and her other friend but dp says no, not enought money (yes there is) and no because of child care, I understand that one but what's got to me is now this friend is asking if i could go next year and dp says not unless I take ds.
I'm a stay at home mum as ds has to many appointments to juggle but is it really unfair for me to ask him to take some time off only for a few days so I can get some much needed alone time, I have only spent 1 night apart for ds in the last 3 months and it's hard work trying to supervise him 24:7, he's thinks when ds is in bed that's my alone time but ds doesn't always go to sleep.
I could give him the money to cover his time off work as I have it and he's entitled to 6 weeks of work a year, and he's only works from 7-12pm 5 nights a week so my only option is him being off work for a break.
