Bad day.

LO will barely nap today and has been a fussy mess all day. I work night shift tonight (12 hours) so I try to take it easy on those days. I haven't been able to do anything. Not even eat. I don't want to sound like a baby, but my birthday is tomorrow which I have to work until 7am then sleep. So I thought I would relax today and avoid housework to treat myself. LO hasn't gone more than 30 minutes without needing held. Even when I hold him he fusses. I'm just frustrated. I was venting to DH and his responses? "Your birthday isn't until tomorrow". No shit. Then I got pissed and explained to him that when he gets home, DS is up for only 2 hours before he goes to sleep. I have him all day then go to work. I have 0 time for myself those days. So here I am sitting half dressed for work rocking him to sleep. Sorry this is probably pointless I just needed to vent.

    Aww sorry for your bad day! It has to be rough to not get any time to yourself, and to have a fussy kiddo even at that. I hope you get to relax a little and your husband shapes up. Happy early bday!

  • Happy Birthday! My LO has been really clingy the last week or so too. He used to be content anywhere for long periods of time, but not anymore. It can be really frustrating, especially with a toddler.

    Also, men really don't understand. Grrr it makes me mad.

     

  • Happy Birthday and hang in there! Just remember one word... CAKE!!!!
  • I don't know how you do it . I watch the kids all day and go to bed at 8.30, bump a little and asleep by 10pm completely exhausted. I can't imagine working a 12 hour shift after a full day with the kiddos. You deserve a break. Hope tomorrow is better and happy birthday!

  • Yuck sorry you had a bad day. Hope you have an easy night at work to make up for it. Happy birthday!!
  • Those days can be so draining. I can't imagine having to go to work at night afterward! I'm sorry your DH is being dense. Hope you have a decent night and a happy birthday tomorrow!

  • Thanks everyone. Usually DH is so understanding. He got home before I left and gave me a big hug and took LO so I could eat before work. DS will probably STTN for the first time he is so exhausted. And I won't be there, ha!
