did anyone's husband help with your baby in the night?

My Husbands a heavy sleeper, So I'm usually up at night, which I don't mind too much because He's a Early morning riser! So he does the morning stuffs and I get to sleep in, Been like that since our girl was a baby and I'm sure it will be the same with our second on the way.

well I breastfed when our son wokeup at night. I stay at home and he works fulltime. At first I said I will get up because Ifelt guilty for not working and I knew he needed some sleep for thenext day at work. But that got old very quickly, I was a zombie for the first twomonths including falling asleep while feedinghim, it was awful. You cannot do it on your own. I know he cant breastfeed when I fed him I also changed his diaper and we also had a contraption to suppliment formula when I didnt make enough. We worked it out that I fedhim and he gotup to change the diaper and clean our supplies. It was hard but we worked together. I still at that timehad a hard time thinking he wasnt doing anything. I realized that men/fathers are never going to do asmuch as the mother, i just cant see that they arnt as emotionally connected at first. Expecially being a stay homemom there are alot of responsibilities and to stay with your child everyday as much as you love it, you need breaks too, even if its 30 min. a day to do whatever you wanna do by yourself it helps. Im not saying let him continuethis but make sure your expectation of him isnt too high, mine was. I dont think men fully understand for a while whatmoms really go through. It is selfish, but just talk it out. communicate let him know how you feel, maybe even let him have a day with doing everything you do, it might be an eye opener.

My husband works mon-Friday night shifts, he doesn't really get to be here for that.. But on the weekends he does wake up to feed our 5month old with out waking me up. When she was born he took a week off work and got to see how hard and how much work it is to raise 2 girls. I felt so great that he looked at me and admired me for those days. Sometimes I understand he needs his alone time (something I don't get much of).. But know that it's been 5 months since she was born he likes to play video games, sleep, watch tv, be on his phone and play basket ball with his friends.. So I think I know how u feel!! Moms are different in that way, we feel like "what!!! He would rather spend his time doing that than spending time with us??"



I think it's awful that he would say that, he just doesn't understand how beautiful it is to watch every single little detail your kids do..

no never. He would play the deaf game. That is so wrong!

i usally do most of the work but with both of our boys if i was exausted he would get up and take care of the kids without me asking just so i could get a little sleep

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, HELP???? And that's all I have to say on that one......

Cassandra - posted on 09/28/2011

Its funny because my husband helped when I was on maternity leave. But when I went back to work he stopped. But my son was colic and when I heard just a whimper I was up! Motherly instinct to take care of her baby. But he helps out a little during the day. Love my family!

Lauren - posted on 09/26/2011

My husband works (330pm-12am) and I stay at home. He refuses to get up at night with our son but he gets up in the morning and takes care of him while I sleep. Really itg depends on what kind of situation your in and how your schedule is. Were breastfeeding so my hubby can't feed him at night anyway

Audra - posted on 09/26/2011

Wow. It seems the issue isn't so much that you and your husband are struggling to schedule sleep, but that your husband doesn't recognize that being a Mom IS work. What does your husband do the other 4 days of the week (just curious)? What is his response when you ask him to wake up with your son?

Taletha - posted on 09/25/2011

My husband still helps at night and the baby is 15 months plus the fact that when I finally do get to sleep I'm in a coma like state lol

Brianna - posted on 09/20/2011

my hubby has only got up once with our daughter in the middle of the night ever. and it was her first night home from the hospital

Lexi - posted on 09/20/2011

Our arrangement until our son slept through the night was always for me to do it solo on the nights before his work days and on days he had off, he would help more and let me sleep in. He couldn't help with feedings since my son breast fed the first 8 months but he would do diaper changes or stay up if T wouldn't fall back asleep and he'd let me sleep in when T woke up in the morning. During the evenings I expected (and still do) him to change a few diapers, deal with some fussy moments, keep baby distracted while I cooked dinner, etc... He was even a stay at home dad for a few months so I think he has an idea of how much work taking care of a kid actually is. Being a dad is more than just bringing home a pay check. If you are not breastfeeding, I say it's time to take a 2 day trip on his days off and leave baby with him. The rules have to be that he still cook dinner, do laundry and anything else he expects you to do while your "not working". He ought to have a much better understanding of your needs after that. When my husband starts to get caught up in his own stuff and forget what I'm dealing with I remind him that he works 60 hours then gets to come home and have time off. He gets weekends and evenings to do whatever he wants. I work 24/7. I am constantly on call whether day or night. I never get a moment to truly relax because even when the kid's quietly entertaining himself or sleeping I still have to be tuned in to every sound and ready to jump into mommy action any second. Even when I sit on the computer, like now, I'm still working. I've gotten up twice in just typing this paragraph to take the wipes away from him and remind him that it's not ok to climb the book shelf! He's interrupted me multiple times asking for this or that or wanting on my lap. I have to run all my errands, do the house work and everything else with constant interruption. I see this is a very old post so hopefully by now you and hubby have smoothed things out. Best of luck!

Angie - posted on 09/17/2011

OMG Selfish much?! Mine works full time and still helps at night when I ask. And he takes her in the mornings that he doesn't work so I can sleep in. If he doesn't think it's work leave the baby with him and take a girls day so he can see how exhausting it is. Then when you get home go see now try getting up at night too! I am sorry you don't get any help, good luck hun!

my husband works 6 days a week bout 12-13 hrs a day.he dont help me..even when his day is off n our son wakes..i bitch n whine cause i need help first time mom here. he not a first time dad..i either jus deal with it or say something.

Jennifer - posted on 09/16/2011

My husband does baby duty for both of our kids, he closes the bedroom door to allow me to sleep and attempts to take care of both even if they wake up at the same time. I tell him that I have no problem helping but since the door is closed and the window a/c unit is on, it become very difficult for me to hear anything outside the bedroom. He is really great at taking care of our kids. Helping around the house is another story and trying to convince him that being a stay-at-home mom is a job. (I cook, clean, do laundry, take care of setting the clothes out, take care of bills, and much more). Being a stay-at-home mom is a job and it isn't always easy. If your husband thinks it is so easy, maybe he should try walking in your shoes for a little bit, even a weekend. Can you go somewhere? Leave him with the kid. Let him get a taste of what raising a kid really entails. It takes two to tango and make the conscious decision about wanting, having, and raising a kid. Try to come up with a way that makes it sound as if him watching the kid will benefit him in some way, shape or form. You need your rest and a break too. Good luck and I hope that you can find a way to get a break.

Jessica - posted on 09/16/2011

My husband is a good person; educated, intelligent, good looking etc...Now that we have a baby I have realized he is selfish, self centered, and lazy. Yes he goes to work. So what? I do everything I used to do before the baby on top of taking care of the babies needs. Men are annoying, selfish creatures. That is why they are the daddies and we are the mommies. Don't hold your breath waiting for him to do anything. Just count him as another child. It's unfortunate but true.

my partner works days and nights, all 12 hour shifts, from 7 to 7. he works 4 nights, off 3 then works 3 days, then off 1 day, and work 3 nights, then offf for the weekend, then work 4 days then gets a fulll week off. when he was working his nights or days, i didnt mind feeding her but when he did get so much time off, we would take turns in getting up. one would tlothe night then one would get up in the morning. he was very good that he would also do 1 night and morning together so i would get a full sleep and a lie in, then i would do the same for him. its about sharing the load, and doingh a little bit for eachother too so we are not ratty and tired all the time. if you are tired and he is not doing his share when he can, it will start to show in the relationship

my husband 9 and half hour days and 14 and a half hour night shifts, when he comes home he helps me with what ever jobs that still needs doin, he will get up through the night and feed her or if any of the other children are poorly just because im at home it does not mean we do any less we just dont get paid for it we do it because we love them,if i get tired or poorly he will take her out or look after her anytime.

Sarah - posted on 11/16/2009

my hubby does not help me at night since the beginning either it is just because he works on shifts so he really need his rest, but on his day offs he helps me with everything. and our daughter is really tangled to me, she can play with him for a while and then if she cannot see me she will start screaming hehehehe and my hubby really hates that i think he is jealous (nice feeling though) that our daughter prefer to be with me than with him. just talk 2 ur hubby and hopefully he will understand. Goodluck!

My husband is in the navy works everyday but maybe one day, he gets up makes the bottle while I change her, I burp her put her back to sleep, he does it everytime she wakes up sometimes he will make the bottle while I am changing her,and he will come back and feed her and put her to sleep.. it really depends but he helps with everything, I find myself changing more diapers but I think I realize it faster then him, but if i asked him to he would in a heart beat he loves spending time with her, she is months old HOWEVER i do not think he feels comfy yet being by himself wiht her for a long period of time.. I think he thinks he may do something wrong even though he knows how to do everything lol but anyways

My bf would get up all the time the first month so I could sleep in but I still got up with him. Now she is 3 months and sleeps all night long and up by 7 am.

Mari - posted on 11/14/2009

LOL! My hubby will but I def have to ask him or let me know I need the help. I do understand he works but I am also working and having to be up with the baby during the day make sure the other 3 kids get off to school, laundry, cooking, chores...our job never ends even when the lights go out we are still working when we have a newborn. I always play the if the shoe were on the other foot. Most def though when he gets home from work and if you are tired I would ask him to watch the baby why you take a nap..some men just dont get it but if you ask they are happy to help...sometimes...as long as the baby isnt crying, needs to be fed, changed...etc...LOL...kidding:) Could you imagine if both were working what would be his excuse then...tell me who the weaker sex is again...uhuhhh...thank you!

Alissa - posted on 11/13/2009

My daughter is 8 months old, hes never stayed up during the night to help me when we are having a bad night with her. He uses the excuse well i work and bring in money. Being a mom is really hard, even when he was laid off and not working he still didn't help but experienced how hard it was. Hes like i never get a break from her and i say yes u do from when u go to work till u get back... men are frustrating that way.

Hey christi, my partner is exactly the same, would rather go to the movies or watch the rugby rather the watch our daughter. im a stay at home mom as well and ive found if im tired that i sleep during the day when my child is sleeping.

Males tend to forget that having a child is a 24 hour job. there job may only be say 13 hours but ours is alot harder.

cheer up :)

Jana - posted on 11/13/2009

OMG would i kick my husbands ass if he didnt help :) he does get up at night and on the weekends he gets to sleep in saturdays and i get to sleep in sundays.We have 3 kids and i know it gets to be a bit much for him once in a while but he never really complains.You should leave your husband with you son for a half day and see how he manages and if he stil thinks being a stay at home mom isnt a job.Its selfish,rude and disrespectful to you!

Quoting christi:

did anyone's husband help with your baby in the night?

my husband goes to work (he works 3 13hour days per week) and he comes home and complains that i'm not working (i'm a stay at home mom) and he works so hard and he needs his sleep. that being a stay at home mom is not a job--i'm not working because i'm not bringing in a paycheck! every now and then i ask him to help our son because he wakes up screaming (right now our son is sick). so, i am just curious if any husband or baby's daddy helps you out or is selfish and just wants to sleep and watch tv or movies all day.

My boyfriend is a HUGE help!! I Had a c section so the first week and a half he was doing everything becuz i was in so much pain and not on any pain meds. I wondered if the help  would continue once I healed...and sure enough!! He helps alot. Our son wakes up twice a night. I get up one time, and he gets up one time. And whenever I need help with anything he is right there. He works full time while I stay home to care for our son!! Your husband needs to realize that you need to relax too and it should be equal!!!

Quoting Andrea:

My husband works 60+ hrs a week, right now they are in harvest so he is putting in sometimes over 100 hrs a week and he will take the feeding in the morning (3am) feeding. He gets up an extra hr early most of the time just so he can have that time with our daughter. There are times that I let him sleep, but I always ask him if he wants to feed her or if he wants me to. If your husband is only working 3 days a week and not helping out with feedings or anything else that is pretty sad. You didn't create your son all by yourself. Being a stay at home mom IS a full time job. You could stop making his dinners, doing his laundry, cleaning the house, shopping, paying the bills, etc etc etc and then he might open his eyes a bit. Enjoy your son, stay positive and good luck.

Yeah you could go on strike where he is concerned. Let him do his own washing and make his own dinner. Good Luck though.

Kayla - posted on 11/13/2009

being a stay at home mom is a job..they dont realize how much work it is! but my fiance does help with our little boy. mostly he sleeps all through the night but he just got a tooth so he has got up once a night for the past month,sometimes i get lucky and he dont get up. but while my fiance was workin i didnt wake him up at ngiht because he had to get up and go to work and i was able to sleep while our child napd during the day. but my fiance lost his job for about 3months and he would help get up with him at ngiht since he didnt have to work the next morning.. but he cant hear him at ngiht when he cries and i always do so i usually would get up with him and not worry bout waking him up,except times i was just to tired to get up..haha but hes a great daddy. i am blessed to have someone so great..

i believe it selfush a lil bit because yes he's both of yall.. im a stay at home mom too.. wen our daughter first came home her father use to get up.. he had the night shift lol.. but now he act like he does not hear her so i just leave him n do it cuz even tho im tierd i'll b more tired tryna wake him up to go bac to sleep.. so i just save my self an aurgement i guess lol

MELISSA - posted on 11/13/2009

mine did. He would get up and warm the bottle for the evening feedings, or he would just get up and hold the baby until the baby went back to sleep, becasue our son would want to get up at 1 in the morning and not go back to sleep until 4. My son only wanted to look at the christmas tree lights. See he was born 10 days before christmas and we stayed at a aunts house for the first week and she had already gotten her tree up.

Amber - posted on 11/13/2009

I could see him not wanting to help on nights that he has to work. 13 hour days are rough. Although, the other 4 nights there should be no excuse for him not to help. Just because you stay home with the baby doesn't mean you get to sleep in and lounge all day. I think you should talk to him and let him know that if he continues to do this, it's going to cause resentment and bitterness between the two of you, let him know that you really need his help. I have a stay at home husband, and he gets up with me every night. He gets our 4 month old out of her crib and brings her to me to nurse, he changes her, and he gets me anything I may need. He does this nightly, as much as 3 times a night!

Difficult one this! I think that I read somewhere that if you were to pay someone to do all that mums do (full-time 24/7 childcare plus housework, plus shopping and cooking) it would cost on average about £20k a year, that's if you could get someone to work for such a low wage! It might be worth talking that through with your hubby? You both wanted kids right? If he wants a family then he has to acknowledge that he may have to make some sacrifices in terms of his time and energies. That he couldn't afford to replace you! That what you do is unpaid and therefore you may actually need other ways of getting some positive feedback about what you do all day? Like a lie-in or help in the night so that you can get some rest? Your husband takes for granted that he does get some recompense for all the effort he makes at work in the form of a paycheck. What do you get? I would encourage him to begin to see that having children and a great home with good food to eat - takes work and effort. He benefits from your work (a family and a home, cooked food !) and you benefit financially from him having a job. You are both equally contributing to your lives and so he could do with meeting you half way and acknowledging this.

My husband has always done his fair share, he feels that he has been able to have the priviledge of having a family and a nice home and he likes to provide for us. He has never ever been anything other than really supportive and understanding. It is possible for men to share childcare and to support their wives in any way they can.

Best wishes

Emma

Although i kind of made him become like that as I love my sleep and sometimes i did pretend i didn't hear the baby when i noticed it wouldn't take him long to get up and bring the baby to me:) CHeeky me:) It worked though and now he is nearly always the one doing th enight shift:)

since i'm having trouble going back to sleep once i am up, it is my boyfriend who takes care of our daughter when she wakes in the middle of the night. once she's asleep, he falls asleep right away! i do hope you can talk to your husband about this. although he shoulders alone the responsibility to provide the family's needs, he also must do his job as a FATHER.

my hubby was great with our son but not so much with our daughter who is 7 months old. I know that he would wake up every time our son cried and with our daughter he is working two jobs but we both work but i take my kids to work with me so i am more less working 3 full time jobs.. one outside the house and do paper work for my husband con. biz and take care of a 2yr and 7mon and a house.. plus two dog and bunnies lol.. so i keep pretty busy.. so what i am saying is no not really.. i know it gets better as they grow but that don't feel like it is soon enough when u are doing everything...

I think it is a personal choice and I was very lucky that he took this on ... I never asked him he says I am just too grumpy without my sleep! None of my girlfriends get any night or day help from thier husband if they stay home!

My fiance works around 60 hours a week so i on't really expect much from him. He leaves at 6h30am and gets back around 6-7pm. I was the one waking up all the time but she only woke once a night when she was born. She has been sleeping through the night since she was around 1 and a half months old. he still woke up a couple times to let me sleep and still wakes up occasionely on his days of with our daughter so i can sleep in. great guy but i know he's tired. I think it's ok that he works and he's tired but he shouldn't be complaining about you not working. The onlyt thing good that came out of me being the primary caretaker is that i established a routine that works for me and works verry well. I don't get to miss any moments and enjoy everyday. He's the one who misses on his kids life. You should tell him to get more involved if it's not at night that's fine but at least during the day. good luck!

Courtney - posted on 11/12/2009

Well, I look at it like this.. If I stay home, cook, clean, deal with bills, homeschool our kids, etc etc.. Dang right he's gonna help or he's gonna sleep in the car. If he cant contribute to raising our children and taking care of them and helping around in the household.. BOTH of which he helped create.. then he don't get no more lovin and will be pullin up a bed in his car. After everything I go through in the day whilst he gets to go out and have life, whether it be work or not... He gets the kids at night time. Its not like he even really "gets" em then as I'm still there and helpin out and am the primary person they come to when they need something. But if the kids wake in the middle of the night, I roll over and tell him.. go tend to your kids. I do it for ALL day, you can take some of the night time hours and right before work time. I make him give the kids drink and snack before work as well as change both babies and bottle em before he goes.



See, whereas most of you guys hope your man helps.. I DEMAND it. He helped create these kids and wanted to play house and have a home.. by gosh, he's gonna contribute to what it takes to raise em and keep things clean. I let him know in no lesser words that if and when he gets too tired of being a man, a dad, and a spouse.. that the door is just several feet away from the couch.. he can pack up and get on down the road at any time. LMBO.



I have a pretty good relationship with my husband. We are very much in love. We are two of the goofiest people you'll ever know. But when it comes down to it.. you either pull your weight in our home or you get on down the road. hahaha.

My partner works away for 2 weeks & works 10-12 hour days every day that he is away, when he comes home he has 1 sleep day then he takes over from me & helps with our 5 month old boy.. I do all the nite feeds as i love that, but i know if I asked him to he would.... Your partner seems kinda selfish... He needs to grow up, you have one baby already and dont need the pressure that he is putting you under!

I hope things get better for you :)

When I had our littlest one, Jaiden (who is now 13 months old). I had a c-section and was breastfeeding at that time. He woke up everytime Jaiden did. He helped change diapers, play with him. He even helped me. Stay at home mom is a job, even though you dont get paid for it in money; you get to watch your child grow up and learn new things. I have three kids and he helps with all of them. I understand he works, but if he only works 3 days a week, he needs to help. He can't sleep and do nothing for the other 4 days. Just keep pushing him until he helps out. It's his son too. I have three kids. Aden's sperm donor, he did nothing but play video games literally ALL day. I had to beg him to change a diaper or hold him so I can clean or cook dinner. Even when I was with him, I felt like I was a single mom. I eventually broke up with him, and to this day, he hasn't seen him or called. I'm not saying break up with him, but it may come to that point where you can't do it all by yourself. You want ME time just as well as he does. But from the sound of it, he gets alot more of it than you do. Keep expressing your feelings until it gets through to him.



Hope that helps :)

My hubby helped with the first child. He got up every second feed during the night. Bottle baby. Changed dippers, did basically any thing that was needed to be done. Child number 2, is my baby. He has changed 1, maybe 2 dippers. Given about 4 bottles and she is already 3 months. I think he has decided she is my baby.
