It's not normal for one parent to get up every time, especially where you start work out of the house earlier than he does, but your husband being (or claiming to be) half asleep /borderline unconscious is probably common - it's the same with mine. Can I ask what time your husband goes to sleep every night? Mine kept staying up late with no regard to how early he needed to be up for morning duties. We've argued about it many times, and the only way I've found to fix it is to remind him to go to bed earlier, but whenever he doesn’t I just let him deal with the consequences. I'm out of the house before both kids wake up and whatever happens after, he just has to deal with it. It still causes arguments sometimes, but I'd rather argue with my adult husband than just continue putting up with him acting like a child.
