Parenting after a Loss

Ugh. Up with sick baby.. DH vent.

Sorry girls.. all I do is complain on these boards! lol  Both kids are sick. DD just threw up again. She hasn't thrown up since Friday morning. I temped her a few minutes ago and she's at 100.1 now.. she was holding at 99.3 since Thursday. I offered her the breast again after I cleaned her up and she fed for maybe 20 seconds and stopped.. now she's sleeping.  DS just woke up and crawled into our bed.. then cried because no one is in our bed! He's in there now trying to go back to sleep and I'm crossing my fingers that he does! 

So DH did work on Friday and he leaves for work around 3:30am.. so I will say that he wasn't home when she got sick the second time and I had to take her to ER.  And Saturday morning he did get up with DS and let me and DD sleep until about 9am which was great!  

But tonight around 7pm he tells me that his buddies are picking him up at 7:30 to head to the bar to watch the Lions. I'm like ok well your kid goes to bed at 8.. both of them are sick and you're leaving me?  10 minutes after he leaves.. my dog craps on DS's floor. (my previous post).  

While he's out, I text him and say please check the store on the way home and see if you can find some vics baby rub..  does he remember? Nope.  

Then he gets home and has a bottle of something shoved in his back pocket.. oh the boys decided to go get small bottles of fireball for everyone.. so he's tipsy too.. ( oh joy.)

Then he passes out in the chair and is snoring away while I am still not sleeping and up with sick kids. I just woke him up to have him hold DD while I get her clean clothes out of the laundry because she just threw up all over her last clean sleeper. So he does.. and he's like oh she feels cooler now.. I siad really because I just temped her and her fever is up.  I go down.. get her clothes.. come right back up and he's snoring holding her again. 

Ugh. stupid man.  I just want to go to sleep and have my babies feel better!!

  • **Hugs** I'm sorry sweetie. It sounds like you guys need to have a conversation when he's not tipsy and you have some sleep. Hope the babies feel better!

  • Oh it got worse..  I went to the garage last night to make sure he remembered to shut the garage door.. and there's freakin puke all over the garage floor! Seriously? who does that??  So I came up the stairs fuming.. I wake him up and said um did you do that?  He's like no.. that must have been a dog.  I said honey really? that's the excuse you're going for?  Unless the dogs grew hands and learned out to turn door knobs, that was not the dog! 

    He's like well I must have done it but I'll clean it in the morning. I said how are you going to do that? He's like with sawdust. Really? so that's going to work after it's been sitting freezing over nite?  Yeah ok.  

    I finally went to sleep at 4am this morning.. exhausted.. worried about my babies.. and totally disgusted with DH!  

    And then DS woke me up at 7:30.. yay.. 3.5 hours of sleep. lol
