Your not alone..... my husband is a seasonal worker so and except from doing.the school pickups ,getting him to empty the bin is a mission
You should join the national women's strike day on 24th June
100% not alone. I am also feeling the strain. If I ever bring it up he just says his job is hard so he needs to sit and relax. Leaving me to do everything. He will even go for a lay down in the middle of the day because he’s tired (after 12 hours of night sleep) while I’ve been up 6 times in the night with our LO. I go back to work in June and if it doesn’t change then I’m not sure I can carry on with him. It’s horrible to think about tbh but if I already feel like a single parent, why not be one 🤷♀️
Sadly, this a problem for a lot of women. Things got better for us over the years and it took a lot of work and arguments. Something I did at the very beginning was getting my husband his own laundry basket (I share mine with the kids) and I would not touch his, I cooked for kids and myself (things he wouldn’t eat like salads and veggies) and when we had separate bathrooms I would not clean in his. I think that helped with him starting to do things for himself. We never resolved the issue of cleaning but we got a cleaner in the end, of course I do more in the week. He has his own jobs like doing weekly shopping, looking after both of our cars, picking kids up from school. We take in turns getting kids ready for bed, taking them to parties or taking time off work during school holidays. It is hard when the kids are small, don’t give up try working things out with him
It’s so hard isn’t it?! We both work Monday-Friday and I feel like I do everything too. We’ve had conversations and it’s still the same, I’m honestly at the point of leaving. I’ve had enough! He lived alone for a few years before I moved in with him so it’s not like he can’t do housework, he just seems to choose not to. And doesn’t take any initiative with changing or feeding the baby, it’s on me to do it or ask him to 😒
