The weekends

My DH and I work Monday thur Friday. DH gets his son which is 2 on Thursday and has him till Sunday at 11. We have a baby due in August. I would like to spend some time with my DH before the baby is due. I would love to spend the night somewhere it doesnt matter where anywhere. It could be 2 miles down the road. But asking for a day with just me and my DH is like pulling teeth. My DH sister has offered to have his son spend the night and other people have offered to watch him. BUt my DH wont let them watch the kid. Because he only has his son thursday to Sunday. ANd its not like we can do something on sunday because for some reason my DH has to be at the house when the Bio mother comes to pick the kid up. Yet other people have said they will be happy to watch the kid till the bio mom comes at 11. I just dont understand why I have to pull teeth for a night alone with my husband?

It is crazy in a step situation for one parent to have all weekends free and the other not. In an intact family this happens, but also parents have no guilt issues leaving the kids w/someone else. You need to make some changes now before the baby comes.
