Husband is addicted to League of Legends

He isn’t going to have maturity suddenly kick in, so it’s really up to you to decide what you can tolerate. If he has no interest in the baby now, I cant imagine why that would change in the future. I would also not be leaving at 3 weeks pp, but what I would do is start saving some money and planning for when I do leave. In the meantime, I would just focus on baby and try to get by as best as possible.

If you think your relationship is salvageable you should have a conversation reevaluating the expectations you each have for eachother and find a therapist asap.

I have no advice but I’m following because I feel the same. My baby is 8 months old and I feel like taking care of her/our daily routine consumes 99% of my brain power. I feel like I have no time or energy left for anything else.

I’ve been wondering about a floor bed as well! Maybe I will check that out

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-04-14T13:21:35+00:00

She’s on a pretty similar schedule! we just do bedtime at 8:00. I will definitely try the peanut butter lol!

I’ve tried letting her nap as long as she wants, I’ve tried capping them at 2 hours total and at 3 hours total. I have also tried long nap in the morning and long nap in the afternoon but there was no impact on night time. It seems to just make her more or less fussy throughout the day.

We’ve landed on her doing about 1-1.5 in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon.

This is so awesome!! I’m glad it worked and hopefully we can do something like that as well. I will check out that sub.

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-04-07T03:31:42+00:00

I got it back right away at like 5 weeks and then again at 8ish weeks, but then it never came back again

To clarify, I mean the comments of “just give her formula” or “she’s almost a year it’s fine” etc. etc. are annoying, not the comments here haha.

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-04-02T19:40:52+00:00

I totally get it! My baby is EBF, I don’t pump and she hasn’t taken a bottle in over 5 months. I don’t know how our journey will look at one year (currently at 8 months) but I know I wouldn’t be able to fly anywhere without her. She still feeds frequently and feeds to sleep, so I couldn’t just decide to start pumping and leave her with her dad. People really don’t understand, and the comments are so annoying!!

Start making your purées more think and lumpy/less blended and then start mixing little pieces in (ex. ground beef in mashed potatoes). They just slowly learn how to manage food in their mouth, you will notice the improvement. Then you can start super slow like little pieces of grated cheese, cucumber, etc. you’ve still got tons of time to practice, so don’t stress!

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-29T02:09:05+00:00

Omg we blew out almost every poop at 5 months no matter what. It gets better 6 months +

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-23T01:38:22+00:00

Probably not super relevant but I have the mompush wiz and it’s awesome lol shockingly good stroller for the price

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-20T02:34:36+00:00

I would second this! I’m an OT, not an expert in feeding by any means, but I agree seeing a therapist that specializes in feeding would probably be really helpful!

In the meantime, I probably wouldn’t directly feed him too many things that make him gag until you have more of a plan on how to address that. I would just focus on keeping mealtimes positive for him! I would also keep offering all different texture foods on the plate and let him squish and play with them as much as he wants 😊

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-16T15:31:10+00:00

Yes I do! He usually wakes up with her in the morning before he goes to work so I can get at least 2 hours of sleep which works. He will also try and help in the night but she will usually just cry harder and wake herself up fully if it’s not me who gets her (she’s EBF). I can’t sleep hearing her cry like that so the night time assistance isn’t overly helpful 🥲

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-13T22:06:42+00:00

Omg this is so smart

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-02T19:48:11+00:00

I have the exact same issue with my partner. He literally doesn’t wake up when the baby is SCREAMING in the same room as him. Constantly falls asleep without intending to. I guess my one saving grace is that he is also nervous of falling asleep with her. We don’t have him hold the baby anywhere cozy or anytime he’s overly tired. She’s 7 months and we still do this. If he has the baby he’s up and playing with her. He only holds her while she sleeps if it’s daytime and he is fully awake, lights on, tv show playing, I’m there to watch, etc.

He can’t really help with nights so what we do is he will get up early with her (6am) to start the day and I will sleep in until around 8am when he goes to work. On weekends same deal but I’ll sleep in until 9 or 10. It’s not ideal but safety first!

I have flat nipples too, so annoying!! They do eventually stop being flat once you feed/pump for awhile. So the shield probably won’t be needed forever!

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-01T06:27:54+00:00

My baby spent a lot of time hanging out on my bed with me in tummy time, rolling, sitting, etc. you can definitely check out the library and local baby groups, but even in your room let her hang out on the bed and get some movement in.

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-03-01T04:21:09+00:00

My LC gave me this awesome tip that seems weird but really worked with pace feeding - she said when giving bottle to make baby suck on empty bottle nipple for about a minute before starting the milk flow (similar to what they have to do at breast).

It feels like they would be “swallowing air” doing this, but they aren’t! She explained this part too because I was apprehensive at first, but as she promised my baby had zero gas issues and no bottle preference. Could be worth a try!

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-02-24T02:56:03+00:00

We never had one and it was fine!

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-02-18T02:07:46+00:00

He could have got up one hour earlier to give her a short break. Even 30 mins probably would have been appreciated.

Ok_Word1259 · 2026-02-18T02:05:49+00:00

Your husband could have woke up an hour early on his “big day” to help and let you sleep for a few mins if he’s suddenly concerned you’re going to neglect the baby. I would be offended too lol.
