DH put his foot down

and said I can't rock Leah to sleep any more. : (

I went out with a friend last night and he had a rough time getting her to sleep. We were laying her down awake for a while...but then stopped because if Evan was up he would follow me in and talk and try to look at her - and then she wanted to play....and it's just easier for me to rock her and not have to go in and roll her back over on her tummy. Even though she can roll herself - it's sometimes a struggle.

I miss the cuddles already - but I know he's right. Tonight her took her from me and laid her down and she didn't make a peep.

BOO to babies growing up.

Re: DH put his foot down

  • What a bummer. I am sure you will be able to cuddle with her at different times though.

  • We still rock E to sleep...but the past week or so he has been a bear to get to sleep.  He popped his first tooth, so I am sure that is it, but he has not been fussy, just really AWAKE until like 10.  It will work out well for us for fireworks tonight...

  • Dh wouldn't dare tell me to not do something with R....he is NOT the mommy! lol

     

  • Haha, ya, DH has his own way of getting her to bed and I have my own way.  Although he has to put her to bed about 2 days a week, so she is pretty used to his way and goes with it.
  • Who does he think he is taking away your cuddle time?  lol....

    I sort of get what he's saying. I've been the one to put Dylan down at night for quite a while.  My husband would do it but I love to be the one because it's my cuddle time with him.  Anyways, I'm worried now that if my husband has to do it one night he may not go down well for him. And when Dylan wakes up crying after we've put him down it seems I'm the only one that can calm him down.  My husband tries first sometimes but then ends up giving him to me.  I think it makes him feel bad and he's been calling Dylan a Mama's boy, which I think he really is.  My routine with Dylan has been to feed him and then I put him on the bed with me until he falls asleep and then put him down.  Probably a bad habit to get into and this is purely selfish because I love this time with him.  Having said all this, if my husband told me he didn't want me to do this anymore I think I would tell him too bad ;o)
