Ranting abt my husband

Hi mummies. My husband asks if he can go on a volunteer trip with his company committee to Batam for 1 night at the end of the year. By then, I would have delivered my baby for less than a month. Do you think its right that he goes? Its not impt at all, but he wants to go. I felt quite upset abt it, like he is throwing his responsibilities at me just to have fun. Seems like he have no idea the amt of ‘work’ that needs to be done with a baby.

But of course this is ultimately between you and your husband, I just want to add on to not get angry but if you really need him around to communicate lovingly that you need his support during this crucial newborn phase. Communication is impt when a baby enters a couple’s lives as things will get so tough!
