Does your husband help with house chores?

Right now I have a newborn, so he does everything. Dishes, cooking, mopping, sweeping, pet care, takes out the garbage. He even folds my laundry and puts it away.

He does help sometimes with laundry and hovering, he takes out the garbage everyday .He works and I take care of 80percent of chores. I don’t pay any bills

He does his laundry, sometimes helps with the babies laundry. Cooks 50% of the time, does the tidy, dishes, and trash most evenings, and helps with the night time routine, and very occasionally will vacuum or mop.

At the moment I do everything while he works except for what I call "blue jobs". He takes the bins out, mows the grass, builds the furniture, fixes things etc. About to have our first baby any day now and things will probably change. During his paternity leave he'll be doing the cooking and cleaning and then when he goes back to work things will probably change depending on how much I can get done during the day with the baby. Hoping I'll still be able to do most of the chores but I know my husband will help out if I need it

Im a sahm so most of the cleaning is done when he gets home but he helps me with whatever needs to be done at the end of the night weather it be sweeping mopping washing dishes laundry etc he doesn't do certain chores we just work together and do what needs to be done

He does bins and cooks dinner (but that’s because he actually finds it de stresses him after work 🤣🙈) everything is normally done before he gets home from work so he can just relax and frees up the weekend for family time

I do about 80% of the cleaning. He sometimes does the dishes, always takes out the trash, and will switch/take out the laundry. I always have to ask for those things to be done though 🙄

I’m sahm so it’s already done. He will help in the evening with bath time for our toddler but the rest he doesn’t have to worry about🤷🏼‍♀️ if he makes mess/cooks he tidies after himself and that’s good enough for me

I wash the laundry, he helps fold and hang. I cook and he gathers trash while I put up the dishes. We clean the bedroom together and he always makes the bed. Other than that living room/restrooms I clean myself while he is at work or on the weekends when he can watch the baby while I do it. And the only reason I clean those 2 alone is because I’m very specific 🤣 at first he wouldn’t lift a finger, but I made it very clear I would not be a single mom while sleeping next to a man, and he saw the error in his ways.

My husband will tidy rooms (fold blankets and put away toys) and he will help with laundry. There’s the occasional vacuuming but I do the rest. It isn’t a whole lot but considering he is technically disabled I definitely appreciate what he can do lol

Almost anything and everything except cooking. Because he doesn’t know how to cook( or I don’t like whatever he cooks😝)
Dishes, cleaning, taking out garbage, laundry sometimes. He is working and pays all the bills and I am looking out after baby. But he does help in everything I ask for.

I usually handle everything except repairing things, maintenance stuff like changing a.c.filter and adding salt to the soft water system ect. He also does the weed eating but I handle the other yard work. On weekend he helps cook meals and tidy up as needed

Yes he does. Wash the bathroom and toilet, help with our baby, do the dishes and laundry, hoover the rug, cook occasionally, take out the garbage sometimes

His expected household responsibilities are hand washing whatever can’t go in the dishwasher & taking out the trash and recycling.

Currently on day 5 of staring at a sink full of things that need to be washed. & yesterday I made sure the trash and recycling were put out cause this morning was pick up day.

He has recently however helped me move multiple shelves around to different rooms in the house so I could organize things better.

On weekdays he works 14 hour days so it’s rare but weekends he cooks all the meals and helps with clean up and of course yard work

I do everything to do with the house. Cleaning, cooking, stocking, shopping. Everything with the baby. I pick up after him constantly, he doesn't do anything. Not even basic "I see that needs to go in the bin, I'll put it in the bin". No he'll walk past it til I do it 🫠

He does the trash and big outdoor projects plus any remodeling or things I request me built (which is often lol). He works a ton though so I am incredibly grateful for what he does. I do all the regular cleaning, laundry, cooking, gardening, and homeschooling.

My husband does whatever needs to be done. I’m pregnant and home all the time so I take care of most housework but if I forget something or miss something or like he needs a bowl and sees the dishes are clean or he needs a certain piece of clothing washed he’ll just unload the dishwasher or start some laundry. He wakes up for work and gets ready, he walks the dogs and feeds the animals, when baby comes he’ll likely do her morning routine to spend some time with her before work, I wake up and make the bed, make his lunch and unload the dishwasher. When he’s gone I deep clean one room in the house a day and tidy up anything out of place, I take care of the animals while he’s at work and get dinner ready before he’s home. He scoops the litter box. Stuff like that. We don’t have a set chore list or anything like certain things aren’t my tasks or his. If it needs to get done we get it done. So greatful for a man like him when so many seem to be so shit.

This is an issue at my house. I do most of the work but I don’t find it fair and we definitely argue about it… or atleast I argue my point and he gets annoyed ughh 🙄😩

Oh also I’m not a sahm though I just realized the group title 😬

Laundry, mowing the lawn, the car maintenance, take out the trash from inside and the scheduled trash pick up. Household duties I didn’t get to do and ask him to finish it.

I do most of the cleaning, but if I’m not feeling well or I’m tired or I just plain didn’t feel like doing it that way day he will clean. Nine times out of 10 he’s taking out the trash. My kids are a mess so the living room gets sweept like five times a day and he usually does the last little bit of cleanup after they go to bed. He knows that I don’t like doing dishes, even if it’s just rinsing off the plate and putting it into the dishwasher so he does the dishes about twice a week. Household chores are like 70/30.🤷‍♀️

No he doesn’t “help” we both share the responsibility of taking care of our home. The misconception of “help” implies it’s still women’s responsibility & men just “help” when really it is ALSO men’s responsibility TOO. Sending love💞

my husband cooks, i wash dishes. he does laundry, i fold when dry. we both keep the room clean as it is our temple. He works and runs out trash cause he’s the man of the house. I take care of the bathroom because i enjoy changing curtains and decor. I agree it shouldn’t be a “help” thing, we are adults and these things would need to be done with or without each other.

I said he doesn’t help… but he has got a little better recently- wash the plates once a day- won’t dry or put away even if there is some dry on the rack he will add on top 😖 and he will take out the bins if I ask him too- that’s it.
He does always bath the baby and brush his teeth before bed and naps if he’s home.
I’m drowning at home with all the housework with a baby a teen a lazy husband and two fuzzy cats…
Baby is also into everything and nearly walking and I can’t leave him for a second to vacuum or cook as he’s a bit of a monkey and chases me around

We live in an apartment not a house, but he does dishes, cat litter, and trash.

And when he’s home he will take baby while I cook or he will cook while I have the baby so I don’t have to do both. He also washes bottles and handles all diaper changes and feeds when he’s home to let me breathe.

I’m on mat so I do whatever I mange to do if I have the time, usually the laundry +folding, tidy up, hoover the carpet and cook dinner when husband is at home (don’t cook with the baby) My husband makes breakfast, washes sterilise bottles and pumps in the morning and evening, cleans the kitchen, washes dishes and so on. Whatever I need help with he will do no questions asked.

He doesn’t consistently help because I *usually* have it pretty alright on my own but sometimes things pile up quicker than usual or something happens that needs my attention more and I ask for help. He will generally help with whatever I ask whenever but I usually only ask him to do a load of dishes, or clean up after I cook, take the garbage out and rarely I’ll ask him to switch or throw in laundry.

Cooking is mainly me. But he’ll stack dishes wipe counters take the bins out, weeds, mows the grass, laundry. It’s just the cooking is me 90% of the time except we eat out on weekends so no cooking there and not many dishes to be stacked. But days that I’m sick or just about to go out and I cbf cooking he will cook or order he gives me grace when I don’t.

My husband takes part in everything I do: cooking, dishes, cleaning, laundry, yard work, everything!

He does garbage and bathrooms (3). I do laundry for everyone. Everything else is dependent on who does nighttime routine.

I do the inside chores and he does the outside chores is basically how we have it split up. So me (laundry, cleaning, weekly cooking). Him (trash, lawn maintenance). He cooks on the weekends usually, mainly because he’ll smoke something or grill (he is also a better cook 🤣). But he works late during the week so it’s easier for me to just have dinner ready. He’ll also help clean the bathroom or something if we need it. There isn’t a hard line per se, he’ll help me with indoor chores if I needed it, but most of that stuff I can get done with the baby during the week. Hope that helps!

He occasionally attempts them, with limited success. For us, it is better when we have the time to focus on our individual strengths.

He does pretty much everything that needs to be done in the house, there’s not many things that just I do or just he does, except I won’t do the garbage or the garden, those are just him jobs lol

I do everything and if I need help I have to ask as he’s not the type to jump in and do what needs to be done. I love him but he’s not super observant of household chores. He usually cooks breakfast and will occasionally wash the dishes and he does his own laundry but I usually fold it. He works 6 days a week a lot so I try to just get it all done myself 😊

My husband works two jobs and im a sahm i homeschool our kids. He still helps with absolutely everything and anything. Truly blessed mama

Cooking , cleaning the kitchen , cleaning the living room, vacuuming , mopping , takes out the trash. The only thing he doesn’t do is laundry unless I ask for help .

Yes, but I had specifically tell him these were his chores. Otherwise, I don't think he would do them. He takes out trash and cleans the toilet and the sink. Does the dishes every other week and will wash/dry clothes of asked. Will make the kids snacks but I also asked him to take on that job.

It bothers me that I had/have to ask but it is what it is.

barely takes out the trash. he doesn't notice anything on his own, if he does, he just ignores until i ask i guess. he will help kinda if i ask.
