[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 466508, member: 11791"] OK. Back off. Just a LITTLE bit. Separate bedrooms? That was MY choice - for the first 6 weeks or so. husband sleeps very lightly. He wasn't getting enough sleep, and therefore wasn't in top form to be doing other stuff to help, either. I can get up, do stuff, and go right back to sleep. I didn't have trouble handling the baby at night. When I moved to the "baby's room" (we had it set up with a bed anyway, in case of a sick kid), husband got really good sleeps, and mine were no worse than before. As a result... he took over the housework, the shopping, returning phone calls, and so on. About the only things left to me, besides the baby, were cooking (zero clean-up), and non-basic laundry (he did diapers, sheets, towels... ). He even did his own ironing if I remember right (either that or put up with the wrinkles). The point being... just because you can't see the sense in it, does not mean there isn't any sense in it. [B]However[/B]. The whole rest of this guy's attitude stinks. Any hubby who cares knows whether his wife has had the stitches out, and what she had to go to the doctor for... and no, looking after baby isn't just HER problem. [/QUOTE]
