Crying for no reason ... ME (kinda long)
My husband has generally been pretty good about helping out. There have been a few times where he has acted as though my SAHM job was easy, but his first vacation when the baby was 5 weeks, hubs learned very quickly just how "easy" my job is. Today, however, I could kill him. I take my baby out once or twice a week for a WHILE since we only have one car, I usually stay out for the entirety of hubs' work schedule so we can pick him up and not waste gas on the commute. The baby does fine because w usually stop at a friend's house and he gets his mama time in. Right now, he's 8 weeks old. The car has been passed due on its much needed oil change for the last SIX hundred miles so it really needs to be taken care of. Tomorrow we're going on our first beach trip with baby and our beach is an hour away. Today is hubs' other day off and I told him he should go to get the oil change alone so I can stay with the baby (to feed him since I don't have any pumped right now) and I don't have to stress him - OR MYSELF - out in the car while we're stopped for 30-60 minutes getting the oil changed. Can he do it? NOPE. He doesn't WANT to. "Just feed him now and we'll go afterward." "Why can't you just go do it now so neither of us gets stressed out?" "I don't want to. Why can't you just put him the carseat so we can go." "You're going either way since you have the money and no boob, why can't you just go by yourself." "I don't want to, why are you forcing me to do this?!" ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME!!?? Now I can't stop crying because I'm super f'ing pissed and I'm stressed out anyway!! Tell me I'm overreacting ...

Sorry he's acting like a jerk. I don't understand why he'd want to take a baby with him to get his oil changed, especially if he has the opportunity to go on his own.
