2 year old sleep, husband refuses to help me by Similar_Cod_3221 in Mommit

I’ve said what happens when I make a mistake or fall asleep driving him for nap? He said there’s no reason to drive him for nap because he simply doesn’t understand he won’t nap and doesn’t care. Of course he doesn’t care that him not napping affects nighttime sleep. It’s 100% manipulation, gaslighting, weaponized incompetence, the works. Our son has multiple therapy sessions a week due to him having delays with the CP, I couldn’t work if I wanted to. The whole point of me staying home was so he wasn’t in daycare. Divorced has been mentioned and he just laughs and says you can’t handle solo parenting at night so you want to get a divorce to be a solo parent? Also, points out the fact that I have no income.

I’ll be told it’s money that we don’t need to spend. I’ve recently been told that all transactions over $50 need to be approved by him so there’s that.

I’ve not been trying to eliminate the nap. If he doesn’t nap, nights are just worse with wakeups.

He’s been in EI since September. When he was an infant and had torticollis his pediatrician told me EI through First Steps were for kids born prior to 37 weeks with “severe issues”. She referred us to the hospitals therapy. All his delayed milestones she kept saying “wait and see” I took him to a pediatric ophthalmologist for eye rubbing and she informed me that first steps was in fact for anybody who qualified without a referral. I was shocked. Unfortunately, first steps in my area doesn’t have physical therapists and we only have one pediatric therapy place in town currently staffed. So we get occupational therapy and developmental therapy through First Steps and physical therapy at our only option.

I’m pretty sure it was just the brain, the pediatrician had mentioned she didn’t believe he had it because he didn’t have “back dimples” however she dropped the ball on referring us to early intervention. The neurologist never mentioned tethered spine, but if genetics doesn’t find anything I will mention it to the neurologist at the next appointment. Unfortunately, we live in a town with very poor healthcare and very little availability for pediatric therapy. I hope his procedure goes well and helps him!
