[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel for OP because she's clearly worn out, but let's face it: 8 week old babies are not that "engaging." I mean, they sleep and cry and eat. They don't even smile yet. No everyone feels compelled to coo at them 24/7. Lots of men have a hard time feeling really connected to tiny babies until they start to be able to engage with anything other than the boob. Give it time, OP, and remember to ask politely when you need something. Being a mom doesn't give you carte blanche for acting bitchy.[/quote] It doesn't matter if the baby is engaging. Her husband isn't a random friend or relative there to have fun with a clean, happy infant. Dads can hear a crying baby just as clearly as Moms. She should not have to ask (which sounds like nag, and acting bitchy). Take a wee bit of initiative and things will fall into place. [/quote]
