Not a good day today...h and I are walking "around" each other...something that hasn't happened in a long time.
Why? Ah, 'cause I'm too stubborn to just act "as if" right now? 'cause he is? 'cause we're both tired and irked and could use a break but aren't willing to give the other one?
My girl is 11 weeks old today. She's gorgeous and sweet and a delight. She also nurses every 2.5 hours round the clock and since up until a few days ago, h was still in law school, I've been handling every feeding and 95% of her care. I alluded to this some post or other but I have to ASK for all help, it seems...mars and venus, I know, but how great would it be to hear him say "let me take her for a while so you can get some rest, pee, read for 10 minutes, throw in a wash, etc."
OK, we're in the same room now and since I was crying while I wrote the above, I decided to just tell him what was bothering me which isn't even what I wrote above....it's that yesterday, on my first mom's day, he did nothing. No acknowledgement, even, that it was mother's day for ME too until he heard me talking with Charlotte telling her that next year she would make me a card at daycare. I know he didn't do it to hurt me..it was just an oversight but I can't believe it.
