Dose your partner help without having to be asked

I'm so exhausted having to ask for help once he sees that I'm struggling and doesn't bother to help out. Currently going through a sleep regression and on top of that refusing feeds and getting teeth. He makes me feel guilty once I ask him for help, like I have inconvenienced him.

I think a man that can watch his partner go through struggle, stress and pain without doing anything to make it better is… idk. Without trying to talk too much about a relationship I don’t know, people naturally would want to help/take care of even make it easier for the person they love

Mine never does and it pisses me tf off!

During the week when he can’t see me in person till later, I’ll send texts ranting about how much of a hard time I’m having and he’ll come home and take over for me and give me a break. On weekends, when we actually see each other more than a couple hours at night, he will instantly notice a mood switch and help

My husband participates in childcare and domestic labour. These are both of our responsibilities. I will just say, without judgement or negativity, please stop framing it as "helping", it's not. It's being a grown-up and responsible, respectful partner.
