Aita for thinking about asking my husband to get up with the kids BOTH Saturday and Sunday?

Are either of you capable of taking naps? My husband gets up with the kids usually both days but I get them for a midday nap so he can sleep
Maybe the discussion needs to be that he needs to get up in the night more or would he be more willing to let you have two sleep in.
Ask him!! He’s the father & a grown man. He can and should get up. Those are normal daddy responsibilities. Whoever chose let him sleep is crazy😭 did y’all not read that she’s the one waking up with baby
The most moving thing I read in your story is that you feel resentful. You need to talk to him about it before it gets worse. Maybe he can get up with baby sometimes or maybe he can wake up in the morning both weekend days. Either way, you two need to come to a compromise so there’s no resentment
Calmly explain the situation and request what you want, hear his response and work together to find a compromise
Why isn't your husband suggesting that you sleep in both days if you're up multiple times through the night while he sleeps peacefully? Damn right, you should suggest that you sleep in both days and if he's not understanding then well you married thr wrong guy
100% I think its fair for you to get both days of sleeping in . Your doing it the whole week so it's only fair. You need to speak to him also and tell him how your feeling . The resentment etc. If he's an understanding person then hopefully he will get it .. I mean your nit asking for alot . Its a lay in on two days xx
I think it's a pretty fair compromise that you get extra sleep on the weekends. If he's getting a regular amount of sleep every night even if he's waking earlier during the week for work, he can wake with the kids on the weekends while the baby is waking during the night. It's a temporary change for a temporary phase of life.
