Do you feel like your husband is useless?
Our son is 18mo now he has had his ups and downs with health but we are all doing the best we can with the given situation.
I dropped him on the floor (from sleep deprivation) whilst feeding him at night when he was about 3mo, that will forever haunt me. Thankfully he was ok.
Sometimes even now I find myself often nodding off at home for a few seconds here and there. I will snap back awake like "oh shit" and try to resume whatever it was I was doing.
I average about 4 hours a night sleep, sometimes 6 hours if I'm lucky. This is just how it is unfortunately.
Now my husband, even before baby he was always the kind of person who, when tired would go to sleep no matter what.
For example on holiday previously I stayed up until 3am packing our suitcases and getting ready to leave, whilst he had long gone to sleep instead. He just cannot stay awake, he will not.
I find this increasingly annoying and unfair especially nowadays when he grabs 7 hours sleep for example and I'm only getting 4. Then he has the audacity to say HE'S TIRED.
He will easily drop everything and go to sleep, whereas I can't, I want to make sure everything is sorted before I can even think about sleeping. I'm the last to eat, to wash, to sleep.
I feel like this is such a bum deal. Motherhood is so unjust. It's got me resenting my husband and feeling like he is useless.
He has been to the Dr before about the tiredness and they did blood tests that came back normal.
I don't know what else to do because I'm already so burnt out and run down, yet somehow I'm still functioning. He's not even working at the moment (family business undergoing renovations etc, so it's like a holiday to him) so wtf is this?? Fucking Snorlax??? I'm so annoyed.
