So upset and irritated with DH

My sister's bacherlorette party is next weekend. A whole weekend in the hill country with an all-day wine tasting (party bus!). I was super pumped to go and have been working had to be sure to have enough milk for DD, coordinated with my friend to watch DD so that I could leave before my mom and DH leave work so that I can get there on time, and am co-hosting with my other sis.

Yeah, DH has some network outage changeover bs that he has to do. WTF.

I am SO upset. This would be my first night away from DD and I am just not okay with neither of us being with her and not even able to be nearby (he'll be onsite most of the night so unavailable). I will be 5 hours away. She still nurses in the MOTN. It's just too much.

And he wants to go away to some stupid car thing in Austin the weekend of my birthday? F that noise.

Re: So upset and irritated with DH

  • I'm going to drive up Saturday (his work thing is Friday night) but I'll miss the best parts since Saturday night is just going to be dinner and the lingerie shower. It's a 5 hour drive and I'll be doing it twice in 24 hours. I can't believe I am having to miss most of my sister's bachelorette party.

  • Yeah it sucks that your plans have to change because of dh's work. I would be dissapointed but if it's work related then theres not much control over that.

    Now for going out of town on your birthday, hell effing no! That would not be cool!

  • That does suck :(  What's holding you back from leaving her with your mom?  TBH, if I had the choice of leaving my lo for a weekend with my H or one of our parents, I'd choose the parents in a heartbeat.

     

    As far as your bday weekend, will that car thing take the whole entire weekend?  If its just a few hours that you otherwise wouldn't be doing anything it doesn't seem like a big deal.  If it will take all weekend then yea I'd be annoyed about that, too.

  • Thanks for empathizing, girls.

    I know it's kind of silly (and I never thought I'd be THAT MOM) but I'm just not comfortable with neither of us close by or able to come home for DD's first night away from me. She is still swaddled and in her RnP and nurses 2-3 times a night so it just makes me nervous. I would feel better if DH was with her.

    I know it's for work but it's a weird situation. He could have told them that he wasn't available this weekend but didn't. His job tends to come first and it frustrates me that I'm having to miss the bulk of her bachelorette party because of it.
