Burning out 🔥
This is a rant:
I’m mother to an awesome 8 month old girl. She’s a smiley, giggly, happy baby for the most part and love to socialize. Everyone thinks she’s “such an easy baby” which is mostly true.
I’ve been struggling with sleep. She does pretty good through the night, we co sleep so that helps a lot. But lately in the day she will skip first nap then it’s just.. downhill from there.
Today (literally for the first time since we split up end of may) I text baby daddy and tell him I need him to take her for a bit cause I’m just done with the constant overtired yelling/cryjng. He’s 44 and since we spit he moved back in with his mom, I’m 35 and my mom just passed away with dementia and copd in march. I feel like he just dodge the hard part of raising baby. He takes her 4 days a week for 4 hours and he call those “his days” (cmon pal it’s 4 hours..) anyway when I asked him to take her today he was like oh it’s not my day… my moms going to give me a haircut. I just want to absolutely lose it.
He took her for 2 hours. Now she’s back home, still not napping and he’s texting me “oh did you try picking her up?” Aghhh I’m so frustrated
