I could give a $hit less about this damn table, it is not more important than our childs safety!How can I get my husband to move the table to make room for the baby crib?
I know this might sound really weird, but can you flip the table upside down and put the crib on top of it? Or can you take off the legs and turn what's left of the table on it's side?How can I get my husband to move the table to make room for the baby crib?
Draw a diagram of the house, and draw little figures of where all the furniture is, label them. Try to make the spaces between furniture as accurate as you can. Then sit down with your husband and tell him you'd like to brainstorm where you can fit the crib. This sort of open ended question, if put the right way, can encourage him to come up with helpful ideas instead of pounding against a brick wall that neither of you can seem to agree on.
Who knows, he might get the point that the only place for the crib is where the table is and he'll come around.
Can the crib go anywhere else? What about using a pack-n-play with a bassinet insert for a while? I'd suggest having your baby sleep with you since it lets you and baby get more sleep and helps develop a strong nursing relationship, but co-sleeping is only safe if you can do it safely (no drinking, drugs, over the counter meds that make you loopy, excessive bedding, you not being over weight, baby between you and wall instead of you and hubby).
Is there honestly nowhere else for you to put the crib, or no where else for your baby to sleep?
I know you say you could care less about the table now, but wait until you're ready to move out and the landlord charges you an excessive amount to replace the table because it was somehow damaged (even though it probably wasn't) because you put it outside.
Maybe ask the landlord to remove it for you.
Your baby will be safe with a table near by, they don't attack. It will be quite a while before he/she is crawling. I agree, if that table is ruined then you will have to pay the owner for it and it could be very expensive. My dining table was $5000, what if it's that expensive? You should call your landlord and explain that you are expecting a baby and that you would like it if they could remove the table from the home. If you are very courteous, maybe they will work with you in putting it in storage. Or maybe they will sell it. You need to give the owner of the table the options.
Call the landlord and explain the problem, I'm sure they will understand. If that's not possible, just keep the baby in a bassinet for a couple of months, then when the baby is bigger bring baby to bed with you. I'm sure your ';husband'; will think of something then, especially if you say, ';No sex with the baby in the room.';
I agree with those who said make it your husband's responsibility. Sometimes we think we've got the one and only answer to a problem and get frustrated when others disagree. If you ask your husband what else you could do instead, he might come up with an answer you both can live with. If that doesn't work, I say go with calling the landlord.
I took the legs off the table and planted it behind the couch . another home we had I went on a twin bed in the dinning room the table went into the living room next to the front door we needed three bedrooms had just 2. It did not hurt that I worked nights and slept while the kids were in school. LOL try to think of other alternatives
call the landlord and explain that you need it out of there. ask if there is somewhere they would like it or for them to come and get it. if they don't respond then forget it and put it outside, put a blanket or tarp over it if hubby is really worried
me what i did to my fiance was i let him take out all his clothes out of the closet and told him if you don't want the table out then guess what you and your clothes sleep on it. cause wen the baby comes he's sleeping with me.
call your land lord and tell them that you need the table moved in order to make room for the baby, if they wont pick it up then ask if it can be put outside, if they ok it then there's nothing to worry about.
tell him he needs to set the crib up an u think ur in labour, make it his responsability, if he wont move the table then tell him he needs to pick something else to move cos baby cant sleep outside and its EXTREMELY dangerous having baby in bed with u two
oh god sounds like he needs to get his priorities straight. Ask him which he would prefer the table outside or the crib. I like the first answer.
Go girl! Don't give a $hit about the table. You are right, your baby is way more important and its saftey is way more important too!!
The table stays the baby goes. Thats it. No more discussion!!!
DONT MAKE HIM DINNER LOL. then theres no use for the table
