SAHM and partner debate

My partner is exactly the same! They don’t understand one bit. My partners job has a time limit. Our job as a mum is a 24 hour thing. They would have an absolute shock if they had to it. He always says it’s easy yet he only experiences it with me there to help on a weekend. Not alone 5 days a week x
Does he do any full shifts with the baby and house? E.g. Saturday morning wake up until lunch/nap? Or even a whole day?
I would say you do it then and leave some jobs for him to do and go out for a few hours.
@Zara yeah we take it in turns getting up in the morning with him on a weekend but I think not matter what he’d still say it’s easy just to make me feel bad x
@Jo I’ve done this before and no matter what he still says it’s easy bcos he just loves to wind me up
You are a team and he shouldn't be making you feel like this. Have you had a serious conversation about this.
If he thinks that, I would just put my baby in nursery and find a job and split the childcare and housework equally. This is why i could never be a stay at home mum. God forbit if something were to happen to your partner or something happened to the relationship, you know you have st to fall back on.
