Anyone else’s husband/partner not get the concept of being quiet while baby sleeps?

My partner is so careless when we put the baby to sleep. During the day she’s pretty used to the sounds around the house (doing dishes, the news on the tv, some chatting) but at night time she’s very used to a calm, quiet environment. My partner works away from the home for 2 weeks and then is home for 2 weeks. When he comes home he sort of forgets he has to be quieter at night and I swear it sounds like a giant walking around. He also had his phone on full volume while walking into our bedroom to grab something which obviously woke her up and then orders food and lets the door slam as he’s taking it in (our door has one of those automatic closers but instead of a soft close it will slam unless you hang onto it) I know he will get back in the swing of things in a couple of days but it’s honestly so annoying when it happens ahh

Yes. My husband is loud when our son is sleeping and if our son ever wake up, I always get him back to sleep so it really pisses me off cause I have to do all the work to get him to sleep when he’s the one who woke him up

Yeah, I'd be telling my partner, you wake the child you deal with the child. Too loud getting dinner/food? Tough luck you don't get to eat your food in peace, way of the world my friend. If he left our child crying I'd get up, grab baby and put baby in his lap and walk away and say "don't want to deal with baby, don't wake baby up, you created a problem, solve it".

We have a policy that if you wake the baby, you get them back to sleep. Idc if you’re my spouse but if you wake up the child you get them back to sleep

@Kalie @Emma @Danielle normally that’s our policy but the first few days that her dad is home she gets so excited to be around him that she literally won’t sleep. I’m talking has fully skipped multiple naps just to be with him. He tried contact naps and co sleeping with her so he could put her to sleep but she just won’t sleep for him those first days (which is when his noise is an issue and then he clicks back in to being quiet at night and doing his best not to disturb the baby) But seeing as she sleeps through the night it’s just easier for me to spend 5 minutes re-settling her than dad having her up for hours and throwing off her whole schedule

My husband is never able to get our son to sleep. He just wants to play with his dad and will not allow him to try to get him to sleep
