Being a daddy is great most of the time, but as with everything there are some things that we could live without so this is a post about my 10 worst bits of daddyhood. Ultimately I would never want to change any of it as my boys mean the world to me, but I like to be real and honest on this blog and give the truth not just the pretty bits. I have also written a post about the 10 best bits so don’t let this put you off; the good certainly outweighs any bad (My Top 10 best bits of daddyhood)
So here are my 10 worst bits of daddyhood:
- The lack of weekend lie ins
- Being the one who discovers a poo in a nappy and so has to change it
- A lack of sleep creating a very cross wife
- Not having as much time to spend together as a couple
- Always having jobs to do so having less down time
- Diffusing toddler tantrums
- No longer being at the top of the list for cuddles (at least from the wife)
- Dealing with tired and grumpy toddlers
- Seeing your child injured or upset
- Financial pressures of raising a family
