Being a new parent can be exhausting, especially when it comes to nighttime feedings and diaper changes. But what happens when one parent refuses to do their fair share? In this case, a new dad is arguing that since his partner is breastfeeding, he shouldn't have to do any nighttime diaper changes. She's offered to split them, but his partner insists that she should do them all. Will Reddit say he's the a**hole for not wanting to help out more?

New dad refuses to change newborn's diapers at night 🤔
Being a new parent is hard, and it's easy to get into arguments over who should do what. A new dad has refused to change his newborn's diapers at night, arguing that since his partner is already awake to nurse, she should do the diaper changes too. The partner thinks it's only fair that he does all the nighttime diaper changes since she's breastfeeding day and night. This has caused tension in their relationship, and they've turned to Reddit to ask for advice. In this article, we'll explore both sides of the argument and the comments and reactions from Reddit users. Stay tuned to find out who Reddit thinks is the a**hole in this situation.
