Me and OH don't live together so I know that he won't be here all the time and I'm used to that but over the last few days it has really annoyed me a bit£
He has taken two weeks off of work as holiday as he isn't entittled to paternity leave. The first few days were great and he was always here and helping out with Riley and Louie. After about 4 days he started slacking and if I was in the kitchen and Louie was crying he wouldn't pick him up but just keep saying 'sssshh Louie' until I came in and get him. On Saturday he went to the pub to watch the football so I stayed at my mums with the boys for the night, he came home with us on Sunday saying that he had to go home Monday to sort some bills out which I can understand. He left about 2pm on Monday with the promise that he would be back by 12 on Tuesday so I could go to the midwife without Riley but he rang and said he was busy. Riley wanted to ring OH on Tuesday afternoon so I let him, OH was on the pub after saying he was too busy to come over!
Had a nightmare niht last night. Louie wouldn't settle and then both the boys were up at 545am. OH rang this morning. He is going shopping with a friend and then out for his friends birthday tonight so we won't see him again today. I can understand going out for his friends birthday but I really would have thouht he would make an effort to see his kids first.
I know I'm prob just being over sensative but these two weeks were supposed to be for him to bond with Louie and help me out a bit. It just seems like two weeks off work to do whatever he wants is more what he had in mind.
Sorry for the selfpitying rant!x
