"Don't you get tired?"

in Success after IF

Remember yesterday how my DH called and wanted to know when I'd be home from work? 

So DH says "Don't you get tired? Being home all day with them? I'm exhausted".

I say "Sure I do especially on non nap days, but I have no choice. I can't just sit and relax"   My kids don't care that I didn't sleep well the night before or that I'd just like to sit in front of the TV and veg.   I have to suck it up and hope that they'll go to bed without a peep so I can collapse on the couch around 9pm.

    One thing I love about my DH is that he says all the time that my job is harder than his.    :-)    and he has a hard/demanding job.

    Because we're fancy like that.

    If I end up being a SAHM, I NEED my husband to understand.  He will be left with both kids, ALL day and see how he fairs.  We had a fight over this just recently.  I love that your husband understands!

    My DH says the same thing.  I also hear, 'I understand why you don't get any cleaning/organizing done all day.'

    It's nice to be appreciated.

    Is it awful that after SAIFsexfest 2011 I was NOT expecting this to be a regular old clean post?

    hee hee

     

    I think it's AWESOME that he said that.

    Nothing gives them a more healthy respect for what you do than having to do it themselves for a day.

    I think every woman should leave her kids alone with her DH for a full day.  It's educational for them in a big way! 

    Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
    Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.

    Ditto the first part!!! Well, ditto both parts, actually. :) I look forward to the day that I can do that...but I don't see it happening any time soon.
