[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry OP. Having a new baby is so hard. the weight of responsibility when it's just you is so crushing.

We just had a baby ten weeks ago and for the first maybe eight weeks my husband was a bit useless at handling the baby. He was super fussy and cried all the time and husband didn't know how to soothe him. He even referred to him as "Satan baby" lol. As baby grew older and bigger, my husband became more confident at handling him. I hope this will be the same for you. [b]Just show the husband what you do to soothe the baby, how to rock the baby, etc. he will get more confident with time.  [/b][/quote]

[b]Why does she have to show the husband what to do?[/b]  I’m a mom and I didn’t magically know all that when my baby was born. I learned it thru effort, trial and error, reading books, watching videos, asking friends, etc.

A man has a brain and he can figure out how to take care of a baby if he wants to.  I did not have a baby just to get another child for a husband.

OP, pack a bag, pump some milk and leave DC with Dad for 12 hours every other day until he figures it out. [/quote]

This. Both parents (if present) should be learning what to do with their child(ren)
