Ladies, I'm loosing patience with my OH. He does bugger all around the house, and I think he has misunderstood that the purpose of my maternity leave is to look after our baby, not to be a skivvy.
On a daily basis, I do LO bottles, wash all the dishes, do LO washing, and our washing, hang it up, put away the dry stuff, make the bed, put the bins out, buy dinner, cook dinner. Oh, and keep a 4 month entertained all day. And by god, does she need entertained, everything is a battle with her. Naptimes result in screaming until being sick, going out for a walk is another screamfest until we actually get moving.
I go to bed at 9pm because I am absolutely shattered, and get up the next again morning to do it all again.
Other mums seem to bob along in a sea of absolute bliss, whereas most of my days are the exact opposite.
My demanding baby is exhausting. Housework is exhausting. Having a lazy fianc???? is exhausting. Hmmmmm. Sorry, this has turned into a moan.
Is it too much to be getting him to do more? He works 9 hour days usually, so works hard. He does LO's bath time and puts her to bed. But thats about it.
