men 🙃

Is it so wrong for me to ASSUME (I know.. that’s my issue) that my husband can actually do something to help out without being prompted?

I’m so frustrated! I’ve had a conversation with him nearly every night this week. I went back to work, I’m doing every chore in the house (except taking the trash out it’s literally his ONE job) while taking care of the baby full time (he holds him when I ask him to), breast feeding all night long, and pumping constant to keep up with my stash that baby is going through at day care.

My husband feels like he’s doing plenty around the house simply because he does what I need to when I ask. My annoyance with this is, I feel like I shouldn’t have to constantly ask! Shouldn’t he see that things need done? I got home lat tonight with the baby and I had freshly folded laundry in the living room that needed put away, dog toys needed picked up, I already complained to him about how bad the vacuum needs run, and when I walk in the house, nothing is done and he’s sitting on his butt playing a video game. 😤 I could have SCREAMED.

To top it off, we are getting ready for bed and he tells me the humidifier needs cleaned so I say okay (assuming he’s going to do it.) he comes back in shortly after and lays down to go to sleep. (I’m nursing at this point) asks me to bring something to him when I’m done. I go out to get it AND THE HUMIDIFIER IS SITTING ON THE COUNTER UNTOUCHED AND NOT CLEANED. and now he’s peacefully sleeping away, and will be until the morning.

Thank you for reading this far. I’m just at a loss. I don’t feel like I should have to constantly ask him to do things when it’s blatantly obvious that it needs done. I’m annoyed because he gets plenty of sleep and I work just as much as him and I feel like so much is falling in me. I can’t Gabe ANOTHER CONBERSATION ABOUT THIS OR OUU
