Husband

So my LG is nearly 5 months old, my partner was amazing when she was first born but as soon as he went back to work he just stopped doing anything. He does awkward shifts like 9-5.30 or 11-7.30 or 12-8.30 and has a very physical job but I handle everything at home, I feed our daughter, change her bum, bathe her, get her down to sleep, play with her, get up with her in the night and early morning, I cook and clean up after us both, handle all the appointments etc and barely have time to shower or have time to myself, the moment she goes down to sleep I go to sleep too because I’m shattered and want to get as much sleep as I can, now my husband gets up in the morning and spends half an hour on the toilet, he then gets home from work and spends an hour in there on the toilet and showering then gets into bed has a cuddle with her and then passes her back to me, he very rarely feeds her or changes her, never gets up with her early in the morning, also just falls asleep on his days off and still doesn’t help with her, I’m just getting so fed up of being the default parent and him knowing there’s a safety net there, oh and then on top of that he expects me to still want to have sex, like what time do I have to even think about being intimate 😭🤦🏻‍♀️ anyone else have any advice or in a similar situation? I love him and he absolutely adores out daughter but I just think he knows I’ll do everything so he doesn’t bother (he also has ADHD)
