Yes. He's actually really into all that stuff - the wipes, diapers, creams - he knows it all. . . he also loves to shop, so maybe that's it.Chat Icon

absolutely!

My hubby and I have always been a team. We have never been the "his" and "her" duty type.. i think its plain bias and stupid Chat Icon

I change our tires if I know it needs to be done and Im there. He cleans the toliet if its dirty. I do the lawn or leafs if necessary and he cooks up some great meals.

We both feel the sexual difference of roles are taught to us and not inherent to the actual sex of the child. His father was always AWOL when he was a kid and he picked up a lot of slack for his mom since she was raising 3 kids on her own. I didn't have a Mom around and my Dad was always there for me, trying hard to make this tom-boy girly! Chat Icon

Jim helped actually plan and arrange our wedding and was more updated in my BCPs that I was.

He knows AJ's diapers, wipie choices, clothes that work or dont, her times to eat, how to burp her right, how long she stays awake after eating, then nap and play time.


I so very much love my hubby!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

We pride ourselves in our teamwork! Chat Icon



Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I don't know what the question the OP is asking has anything to do with teamwork.

Does my husband know what size diaper Jack wears - I would bet a million dollars he has no clue. Does my husband change his diapers? Absolutlely

Again, I'm not exactly sure what one thing has to do with the other Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It depends on what else he knows/doesn't know and what else he does/does not do. If he does not know diaper size but he is super involved, it certainly does not say anything negative about the relationship. If he does not know diaper size, and does not know what the kid eats, and has never changed a diaper, and does not know what size clothing, and can't unfold the stroller and has never been to the pediatrician, maybe it still does not say anything negative but it's not the situation for me (unless there is a good reason like him being away in the armed forces). I will be honest and say that I would not have the energy to do it all myself.



I don't think it is right to make that judgement in anyone's case.

There have been times in Christopher's short life where *I* didn't change a diaper in days, etc or DH and mainly it was because we were working too hard for our FAMILY while the other one took care of the child.

My DH works night and currently I am SAHM, I cannot tell you the last time he changed a diaper, does that give you the right to judge his parenting skills? Absolutely not b/c he is an amazing father who is working very hard to support his family.



I did not judge anyone else's situation. I was very specific in stating that if all of the facts that I listed were present, it would not be the right situation for me.

DW buys them, but I usually know (usually means when she switches to the next size, I may not realize at first). Most of the time, DW buys the large box of diapers, and we use one sleeve at a time, so the size isn't always obvious. When you are putting them on a squirming child, the number printed on the diaper is the least of my concerns.... Chat Icon



I just had to look at a diaper...I had no clue the size was on there...8 months later...lol.

I have to say the formula he knows very well. There have been many times we almost ran out and he had to pick some up on the way home....lol.

I haven't even mentioned what my husband does or does not do Chat Icon . This type of reaction is why people do not always want to give honest information.

Re: Does your DH/SO know what size diapers DC wears?

I dont know, it took me forever to get him to understand that the size is not a direct correlation to their age. He thought size 1 was only for 1 year olds.

However I am pretty sure he would do okay because he knows approx what DS weights.


ETA: and to the PP who went WAY off topic...time to not be so preachy, and defensive and get off your soap box.
Just answer hte question...or dont say anything at all!

Re: Does your DH/SO know what size diapers DC wears?

He might. He knows they are Pampers Cruisers and he knows DS's weight, so he could probably figure it out if he were looking at the boxes if he wasn't sure.

All I care about is that he helps change them! As long as that happens, I will buy every diaper until potty training kicks in. Chat Icon

NOt you, the poster who went way off topic about gender roles.

I just agree that this was supposed to probably be a fun post, not a contest over whose DH does more/care more, etc

ETA: I honstly didnt read the ENTIRE thread and dont even know what yoru posts were about.
