I don't understand.

You knew that your husband was tired and was already in bed, and that tonight you were on duty. Why didn't you do your job?

In your shoes, I would have done everything myself without involving my husband. I would be so mad if I were tired and in bed and something like this happened on my husband's watch, AND he asked me to get up and help! I've gotten up for projectile vomiting multiple times, but vaseline? You messed up, you clean it up.

We never had a baby monitor, but if you have one, use it.

Oh please.  I'm sure she's tired too - we're all freaking tired.  But he's also a parent.  Vaseline is a beast to clean up, and a toddler covered in it can create more of a mess if there's only one adult.

But here's a cookie for doing it solo.. you win the better mommy award. [/quote]

PP you responded to. People are so quick to jump to the wife's rescue because we're mostly female here, but for once I see myself in the husband's situation. I personally find it very difficult to get up once I'm in bed and sleepy. If I delegate the baby's care to my spouse for one night, then I expect them to do the job right, and if not, to make it right without bothering me unless it's serious. It's not as if I cried sick every night, and I hope OP's husband doesn't leave her to deal with the kids all the time.

So spare me your sarcasm. I think OP started the problem by not doing what she was supposed to do. Her husband is justifiably grumpy *because he's tired*, and hopefully will be all right again in the morning.
