WTH?

A couple weeks ago my husband and both kids were sick with colds. I attempted to take care of them, with little regard to my health, sleep or anything that wasn't aimed at making them feel better.
So I get this cold, which turns into an ear infection. He stayed home with the me and the kids so I can't complain too much about that, but why do I have to get up when the baby doesn't stop crying or he has a meeting that he has to call in for?! I maybe got an extra 3 hours of sleep yesterday. When he was home sick, he didn't get up for any calls, heck, I barely let him out of bed because sleep is what needs to be done to help get better.
Then we go to bed and he says to me, "You need to get up with your son if/when he wakes up." Excuse me?! So I can't even take additional medicine to help me sleep because I have to get up? How fair is this? Of course, the baby woke up 3 times between 10:30 and 6am of all nights. He hasn't had a night like that in awhile.
I know I'm the mommy and these are the things that happen, but he took a nap yesterday (longer than I did) and still was sleeping by 10. I didn't even get to bed until 10:20 because I had to put the baby down....
So I'm just frustrated. I'm frustrated that he seems to forget that I am sick too...And he wonders why it takes me twice as long to feel better....
That's all for now... I'm just too tired.
