[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Day off from what? You aren't working.[/quote] Taking care of a 7 month old baby IS working you smug bit**[/quote] sorry but what does a parent do when the baby is sleeping (8pm - 9am) and taking 3 hour naps during the day?[/quote] Well, for starters, during a lot of that sleeping stretch you mentioned, the parents are ALSO sleeping. I go to bed at around 9:30pm and get up at 6am when my daughter gets up. She does not and has never slept from 8pm to 9am. As a baby, she napped from about 10-11 and then again from 2-3 or so. Then when she was a toddler, she napped from 12-2. During those naps, I did other stuff that needed to be done, like laundry and dinner prep and taking a shower. The OP isn't talking about getting occasional breaks during the day. She's talking about being the person who is in charge 100% of the time because her jackhole husband does not contribute to childcare at all. This the fundamental misconception of having one parent stay home - that that arrangement exempts the other parent from any responsibility for childcare at any time. That's not how it's supposed to work.[/quote]
