Am I a horrible wife ?

When we first met my husband was a stocky well built man which I love, but has gained weight over the years and looks so different. I have gained and lost weight due to pregnancies and he never has once commented on it and would always say he loves me regardless of size etc but I knew for myself and health that I would be losing the baby weight again. I like to stay active but he is too tired after work to go for a walk or swim which I get. I cook healthy meals. Do I just accept it’s the way he is now? I

Thinking about separation from husband.

Hi, so my son has just turned 1. He’s our only child. I’m really starting to think about separating from my husband. For context I had a really bad pregnancy with lots of complications, I’m suffering and in therapy for birth trauma as we speak.

I’m absolutely loving being a mum and despite the trauma and bad pregnancy I am the happiest and fulfilled I’ve ever been.

However my husband gives me no support. I hate to use the word but he is lazy. This isn’t about the mental load fully it’s just general help. He will watch me struggle and sigh and huff when I ask for help. Everytime I ask for some help/ something to be done I’m accused of micro managing him. I’ve tried to explain post partum issues ie hair loss (which got me down for a long time) and he just said “it’ll grow back”

He is the most amazing dad he is so fun and “hands on” but as a husband I’m
Not sure I can do this anymore. The days where it’s just me and my son it feels so much easier. I feel like I have 2 children sometimes with my husband and he just doesn’t understand.

I’ve spoken to my mum and his mum who I am very close with and she says that’s just him. He’s always been relaxed and a bit lazy. But now we have a child I’m carrying everything. Every day he forgets to brush our child’s teeth. It’s not a massive thing but every day I say please remember to brush his teeth and sometimes honestly it feels like he forgets on purpose 😭

I’ve tried to talk honestly and he just turns it to me being a bitch and not understand post partum. Ive sent him NHS articles about birth trauma etc and he just doesn’t take anything on board.

I’ve suggested trying therapy together but he doesn’t think we need it. He says I have high standards he can’t meet. Which isn’t true. I’m so relaxed and long as our toilets are clean I’m so easy going with housework. He just doesn’t support ME.

Just looking for a bit of advice because it’s bringing me down so much just now.
