My husband has been trying to focus on his health lately but I’m starting to resent him for it and I feel terrible that I do. But he sleeps in every morning while I get up at the butt crack of dawn with the kids. He wakes up and immediately goes to work, gets off work, goes to the gym for an hour every single day, comes home and plays with the kids until I finish making dinner so normally between 30min-1hr. Then he goes on a walk for almost another hour while I put the kids to bed, clean up dinner dishes etc. I go to bed at 9:30 because I’m pregnant and exhausted and he stays up till 11ish every night so he gets some “alone time”. And I feel like I hardly see him but when I say anything about him spending so much time working out he tells me it’s for his health and that it shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve also suggested that he maybe restructure his day and go to the gym before work since he doesn’t work till 8:30 and has the freedom to make his schedule if he wants to. But he gets upset and says he “doesn’t like to lift before work”. So I feel like he’s prioritizing himself over me and the kids and feel like we hardly see him over something that could easily be changed. AITA for feeling this way?

So he does zero childcare or helping round the house? And you’re pregnant too?? What the actual F. No you ARENT the A hole clearly he needs to change his schedule. He needs to help in the morning, why is that just your responsibility? Tell him to gym at lunch (what my hubby does) walk after kids in bed. Take turns doing bedtime.
Honestly I’m shocked at how little he does.
