[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you do that makes you a doormat? [/quote]

I do a lot of the house stuff and childcare. My husband had a solo weekend with our 4 month old while I went on the trip. He asked some questions because I’m with the baby more. They kept making comments on how much he was texting me. A friend of ours is going through a divorce and she told me to watch it and not end up like her doing everything. I told her I was very happy with my situation and it works for us. They started sh*t talking their husbands. They made joking comments about my husband being a man child and called me a doormat. These were women I don’t know very well. Only two of the women I’m actual friends with and they stuck up for me. [/quote]

I think the people were ridiculous to criticize your husband for texting too much.  Babies get antsy when their mom disappears.  My husband was a very hand-on dad and when they were little and I needed to go to an evening event, my toddler and baby would sometimes be very upset and I'd arrive home and have to settle them down.  Also babies tend to have a lot of gear and logistics to keep track of.

I never went on a "girls trip" when I had little kids.  The fact that you got to go on one is already a good sign.[/quote]
