So after listening to comments from DH about how hard can it be to stay home all day I decided to test him. Last night I woke him up every time the baby was up just so he could see what he slept through most nights. Today I left for 4 hrs to run errands and left her home with him. Needless to say he got a small dose of what I do each day. I think it was a wake up call bc when I go back to work in a few weeks he will be home with her at least two days a week. Welcome to my world! Is it bad that I think this is funny?

As long as you weren't hoping your baby was in pain and fussy, then no, it wasn't bad

Luckily my husband is now seeing how much he isn't sleeping by just being on skype all the time. He turned it off when his whining gets really bad and it seems like his gums are causing him a lot of pain. He also sees me and says I look dead so he has told me when I get back he will watch Connor all day for me while I do whatever I want.

While he still thinks I have it easier than him (which I do agree to an extent), he knows now it isn't all peaches and sunshine when I am home.

My husband has no idea how many times I get up in the night. He hears prob 1 of every 5 and then complains how his sleep was interrupted.

Why would I ever hope that?

A few days ago, someone wanted to stick it to their H because he said she had it easy with her babies. So during a time when he would be home alone with them, she wished them to be teething and the fussiest babies ever. I understand wanting YH to see what it's like but I never understood wanting your LO(s) to be miserable just for that purpose.

Everytime MH complains about Ethan being fussy or how hard it was to feed the wiggler, my response is, Welcome to my world!

I honestly think what Jordan was meaning the same thing as leasaj, just had a bad choice of words or sentence structure and it got misunderstood. I do not think anyone wants to see their child suffer just to show someone else how it is.

I don't think they actually wanted their baby to be in pain, but just wanted their husbands to experience the tougher times like we all do so they can appreciate us that much more... Don't you think?

To a certain extent. Ethan isn't fussy everyday or every moment. So why would I wish MH to experience something I don't even have to deal with everyday? I understand wanting YH to experience our jobs. But if you truly wanted him to experience what we go through, then you wouldn't want your LO to change his everyday behavior. That just doesn't make any sense. JL was wanting her babies to behave differently for her H. Whether she used words that she shouldn't have doesn't matter. She wished them to be different then what she has to deal with. Leasaj didn't say anything about her LO changing her temperment just so her H can deal with it. That's the difference.

She just wanted her husband to experience a bad day, which isn't an abnormal thing for babies to have, and by the what she was saying they had bad days often. She didn't wish her children to be in pain or suffering just to show him though.

Didn't mean to start anything just was glad DH got a taste of everyday life. I would never wish for my LO to be in any type of pain or discomfort. She's just been a handful the past week & DH didn't have a clue. I believe his words were, "How much work can one little baby be?" Now he has an idea.

Besides its not like wishing it will make it happen.....its not like she tried to make them gassy or overtired on purpose

This sounds like me! Although I am not up 5 times DH almost always sleeps through things.... and yet this AM when I said I was exhausted - he had the audacity to say "Welcome to parenthood."

This almost earned him a throat punch, and if I can pull it off it WILL earn him his first MOTN feeding tonight, I think it's time he sees what it's like.

Hahahaha!
