I wouldn’t call it “taking the load,” it’s just him being a parent

Yesss I spent most of the afternoon and evening in bed today whilst my husband took my toddler to the in laws so I can rest. I am 24 weeks pregnant and tireddddd asf

Absolutely yes. Even if im not burnt out he will still take her

He does his part so I don't get to be burned out. I mean, why does a men and father should be waiting for his wife to be completely down to do his part? Not normal to me.

He takes her out regularly as it is, if he knows I’m burnt out or overwhelmed he’ll take her out and then do bath and bed ✨

Yes but I’m horrible at asking for help & prefer to do things myself until I end up feeling burnt out.
I’m working on it. 🙃

I’d have to actually ask. I had my first lay in in over a year this morning, and my husband has done nothing but moan about how tired he is all day. That’s my every day babes 😂

Took 2 years but yes eventually

Only if I ask

I say “come get your kid” lol. Usually he can tell when I’m getting overwhelmed but if he doesn’t that’s when I say that and he does w no issues or push back
