My husband is working at night

This is hard to overcome in life, but its what life is about and making money to support your family and life a healthy life. You may not be having a happy life together right now, but maybe soon you will. Maybe they will move him during the day time shift soon or maybe he should ask for a position in the day time so that he could spend more time with you and to make you happy. Well when i get home from work i cook and have a dinner every night with my boyfriend and my parents or his parents. Its important to have time together and live a good life with your family.

Sometimes its hard to find quality time to spend with people you care about. Instead how about trying to eat meals together. The tiny bit of things if you think a little more about it can show the love between your relationship.

Hi. crib4mythoughts. I know how you are feeling. My husband works throughout the day time. And sometimes at night too. He is gone everyday from home, working. When he gets home, I always make sure that we both have a conversation before I go to sleep that night. We usually eat dinner and talk. I enjoy talking to my husband. And sometimes, he will come home with take out and we will sit and eat it together as a family. I don't like when he is not at home with us at night. I prefer for him to be at home.

I used to have a boyfriend who worked at night. I started work in the afternoon and I finished at around 10 p.m. When he got home in the morning I was still sleeping and when I got home at night, he was sleeping. He usually woke up around 11:30 p.m., but we didn't have much time to talk, because he had to leave for work. We usually joked about the situation and said that we never argued, because we hardly ever saw eachother. The night between Monday and Tuesday my ex-boyfriend didn't work, and Monday night and Tuesday morning we always spent the time together. It was our only chance to spend some quality time together, but we enjoyed it a lot more because we knew that weren't able to spend quality time together more than once a week.

Don't you worry. A lot of people live like that wherein the husband has to work night shift. it will be tough to accommodate in the beginning but you will be used to that soon. About quality time spending, well there is always Sundays for you where all in the family can get together. And in special cases, you can ask him to take leave for a day, then and there.

Generally, in this situations it's a cut in the communication, because the time isn't there for talking with your husband. What you need to do is to give him space to be, because working so hard is very stressful, and you need to ask him questions about himself, to stay connected, but not being pushy. You know, there are people that are very pushy when they ask something. Be sensitive and cordial, feel him like he is, and try to spend in weekends time just the two of you. Connection is more important than time spent

I am sorry to hear your situation. As for me, I worked at night and when my parents wake up every morning I will be sleeping. Its heart broken to see them doing the household chores at day time while I go to pee sometimes in the middle of my sleep. I thought earning online would be flexible but some sites only fast at night.

I have an idea,you can find a job which work at night too.So your husband is sleep,you can also sleep.But if do like that,you will have no time look after your baby.You can choose!

have not experienced this but all i can say is make the best of the time available if there is any to compensate some, if not all, of the lost times.

My husband needs to travel all the time, at least once a month these days. Besdies, he works very late at work everyday. When he comes home, it is almost time for me to put my baby to sleep, when he wakes up in the morning, I am too tired from getting up many times in the middle of the night for our baby so we barely talk to each other... However, he would spend time with us at the weekends at least even though he works at home on the comupter as well, better than not having him at home.

Hi Crib4mythoughts, your family situation reminds me of my colleagues. I was talking to the security guards at the main gate of the office building. One of them said that his wife is also working as a security guard, but they work completely different shift. Since security guards practically work twelve hours per day, I wonder how they are communicating with each other. he said they have no choice, since they want to save every penny for the sake of their kids. They do not want to spend money on caretaker for their kids, or send them to day care center. He gets to see his wife only when they are both not working. Their superiors always let them have the same off day. I think their love for each other is very strong. Their love for their kids is definitely examplary.

Small things really matter. Like if you only get the chance to be with him during dinner or breakfast time, make the most out of it. I also work at home and my husband tends to work in the evening as well and sometimes ends up seeing the baby asleep when he goes home. We try to make the most of what we have when all three of us are awake. Since my time is pretty flexible as well, we tend to visit him at work and invite him for a dinner before his shifts starts or meet up with him in the morning just to have an early breakfast together then we go home together. I know it's difficult but you just really have to find those small ways and make it really meaningful.

There are a lot of folks who experience the same circumstances as you are. It is, however, a matter of adjustments and understanding that makes things work out right. Try some weekend bonding even indoors if not out your yard.

hi there, this is normal problem in the families in which husband or wife working in the night shifts.and they always complaining about the pearsonal and social life as they dont get precious time to spend which eachother as well as with their family.in this case have to wait for the saturday sunday when your husband has the week off and you can share your time with each other in that time. what does you usually do?

Hi. I know how that feels. I once did a graveyard shift for a month. The only time I'd see my wife during weekdays is when she's about to leave for work and I had just come from work. Sometimes we even don't get a chance to meet especially when she has to leave the house early to avoid the rush hour traffic. My son was still 4 years old then and I get a chance to spend time with him till noon when fighting off sleepiness was very hard. But we made sure our Sundays are family days, no work matters whatsoever, in order for us to really have quality time.
