It’s ok if your nursery isn’t finished or doesn’t exist

@kr1983 this sounds like the tip of the iceberg, but setting up whatever system in the nursery you choose, together as a team can go a long way towards holding him/each other more accountable down the road!

@kr1983 Yeah that is a pretty awful attitude to have about painting a room. Is he going to act like this postpartum too? I’d really tell him he needs get his act together or you’re going to leave. On my bumpers group there are so many stories of men just acting like absolute tools and refusing to participate in raising their children.

[mihitt]

@maximumsales Right? He’s the bomb

 

[spencer_3433]

@mihitt Your dad gets it.

@mihitt Your dad is wise.

 

[tara74]

@mihitt Your dad sounds lovely

 

[aunieinalaska]

@mihitt Wow I love your dad.

 

[namith]

@mihitt This so much! I wish my husband would just get this. Your dad is a champ for understanding the feeling

 

[mihitt]

@namith I agree! He’s definitely done well to take the time to listen to all of ladies in his life and pass that wisdom on to the next generations

@mihitt This is so well said! I've been so upset because the nursery furniture we ordered months ago has delayed shipping and likely won't arrive until baby is born. We have a bassinet and a glider, so we're in fine shape, but it's been bothering me that the room won't be done in time. Your dad captured my feelings perfectly.

 

[mihitt]

@billyinlights Aw I know that’s frustrating! I’m so glad you have the important stuff already

 

[ohiogators]

@mihitt If I overheard my FIL or dad saying this to my husband I would probably be in tears. That's so stinkin sweet.

 

[mihitt]

@ohiogators Oh I was! It started because my dad heard us kind of arguing over whether the nursery was important and my dad took him aside to talk some sense into him haha. I wasn’t sure if he got through to him or not, but he spent the whole day working on it with me!

 

[ohiogators]

@mihitt Awwww, omg that's the sweetest!

 

[aurelian]

@mihitt THIS!

 

[bryanparry]

@mihitt Your dad sounds like an angel disguised as a human man. Seriously i have never even thought this much insight is possible for manfolk

 

[mihitt]

@bryanparry He certainly isn’t perfect, but he has 3 older sisters, 3 daughters, and a wife he loves. He gets it (as much as a man can lol)
