10 Reasons I Want to Punch DH in the Face
MomlovesEloise

I love DH and how much he loves our family, but right now I kinda wanna punch him in the face. So I thought it would be therapeutic to list 10 reasons why. Feel free to add to my list...
1. You always hog DD when we're in public, but love to pass her off as soon as we're home or you're not in front of an audience.
2. You get to sleep all night, every night, but always complain how tired you are.
3. DD never gets you messy (I'm always covered in spit up, poo, sweat...)
4. You don't understand why I'm so upset about DD starting daycare next week
5. You think I should be able to sleep while BFing
6. You always make cow jokes and insist on hand pumping my boobs while I'm pumping
7. You always want to have sex at 11pm, after I just spent 3 hours trying to get LO to sleep. And then you pout when I say no.
8. You think I spoil DD and she should CIO at this age
9. Whenever you off to help lay DD down, I know she'll going to be up and overtired for another 2 hours.
10. You get to shower, brush your teeth, and make coffee whenever you want

Re: 10 Reasons I Want to Punch DH in the Face
... and don't understand how or why I can't.
#13. When you have a day off you get to have a whole day off. For some reason you believe it is acceptable to still send her to the babysitter, because you have stuff you need to get done.
#14- Because I TOLD him NOT to try and change DS's sleeping hours (because the kid will still wake up for the day at the same damn time).... yet last night DS was up until 3 am. Aaaaand awake for the day at nine. Guess who got up with him when DS woke? You got it. Me. Even though I'm starting midnight shift tomorrow.
Azzhole.
#16- you know how much I hate pumping and the stress I have had over it so don't make jokes about how you want to help milk me and when I have on my homemade handfree bra don't stare at me and ask for me to just wear it and let my nipples stick out. I don't feel even a little sexy so jokes about how sexy it is are not getting you anywhere but days away from my vagina!
THIS!
Also: when the baby is crying, it's not *always* because "he's hungry". Instead of using breastfeeding as an excuse to not learn to soothe your son, why not just TRY to get him to stop crying?
this EXACTLY!!!! arg
don't get all upset when she calms right down when I take her from you, it could be the fact that I am the one that comforts her 99.5% of the time and that I am calm. If you want to change this you may just want to hold, feed, or change her a little more often. Otherwise quit crying about it, she will outgrow it and you will be the fun parent soon enough!
Seriously! I want to print it out and give to DH as a heads up!
Couldn't of said it better myself....
oh and FYI take the f****ing pack of cigarettes and the lighter out of your shirt pocket when you hold him, he might not like the fact that it's poking him the face....dumbazz
Oh I forgot one...
You never snap DD's onsie or put her pants on after you change her diaper. Is it really that f-ing hard?!?!
do all DH do this? ask the infant to stop crying, to be still, to be quiet, whats wrong...like he is suddenly going to understand what the hell you are saying and respond back? I thought it was just mine lol
1ht
Yes!
Every time you see DS nursing, you say "can I get the other one?" If this happens one more time, you're going down!!!
Also, he IS NOT hungry EVERY TIME he fusses!!!
Make a pregnancy ticker
This... I'm not sure when I last had a day totally off to just sit on my @ss.
Must be a man thing. My husband, dad, and FIL all pass my son off to me everytime he cries saying, "oh boy, someone is hungry!" Really?! Because I could swear I just fed him 15 minutes ago!!!!
He's getting better since our DS is getting older but it used to BUG me when he would take DS and say "Whaat?" whenever he'd be fussy. I'd always say "What is going to be his first word." At least now he tries to "talk" to him. OH and when he'd come home from work and not really interact with DS. After a couple times of this happening I finally said something because it was really bothering me and that's why bath time is daddy time; luckily he felt there was a distance between him & DS so it hasn't happened since.
OH and the fact that he still wants to go out and stay out late (8 or later....hahaha I sound like an old lady!). I get it, you like hanging out with your family/friends, but being at a sports bar/their house/etc. after DS's bedtime isn't fun for me...DS's tired and needs his sleep.
One last thing...stop making it sound like BFing is a burden. I'm going to do it as long as I can because it's what I feel is best for him; be supportive and stop making me feel that you want me to quit so we can go do "fun" things. I'm no longer concerned about BFing in public; that's what blankets/covers are for so we can still do "fun" things.
And I thought I only had 1 complaint. haha
FOMG, this. Or better yet, why do you snap ONE snap so it rides between his thigh and diaper like a thong??
My husband does this!!
This. Giving me the evil eye doesnt soothe the baby. He doesn't like to be messed with every second he's awake, give the kid a break and perhaps he wont cry! 1ht

You cry that you are so tired from taking care of DS while I'm at work (he's SAH for now) but I just worked 10 hrs on my feet with no break, not even to pump! And now I have to come home at 1am and pump, get ready for bed, do any feedings during the night, and wake up at 7am with DS, all the while you are sleeping/playing video games. And since, while you are home all night and I'm working, you don't do any house work, I now have to do that too!!
