Who does the cleaning and cooking?

Question

If you are a two parent household and work full time  but so does your husband or boyfriend do you do all of the cleaning and cooking? If so has it left you resentful?

Answer

We both are responsible for taking care of household tasks 
I do all of the cooking and meal planning since I enjoy it but he typically does the grocery shopping. He also does the majority of cleaning. He does all the garbage and recycling. We split laundry usually. Currently I have more baby related things because I’m breastfeeding our 8 week old. 
Not resentful because I have a partner.

Answer

I've been really lucky. When my husband and I both worked we shared all duties around the house and with the kids. Since I've stayed home with the kids, I do most of it, but sometimes I get stressed, or need a break. I try to communicate that with my husband and he's always been pretty responsive. Try using I statements. I feel.... it helps! Lastly is the dishes sit for a day, let them. It's not worth the burn out. You're allowed to take a break.

Answer

While home during covid, i did most of the cooking and cleaning since I had extra time (no commute). He dies dushes and cooks on weekends. When he was at his old job and was home before me, he would cook.
I am home with out 4m old right now and still cook and clean (barely). Sometimes I wish he would do more in the evening but he gets home so late and I am greatful for the 2h he takes baby (weekends he takes her most of the day which is great).

Answer

This conversation always baffles me. My husband works full time out of the home. I work, but very flexible hours and from home. My husband does the majority of the cleaning in our home. He also cooks although I love to cook so do it more. We don’t split responsibilities we just both do whatever it is that needs doing. He’s just as capable of anything that I am.

Answer

The hubs does the cleaning, cooking, vast majority of outside work. I'm the CFO, secretary, and chief laundrician.

Answer

We both work full time, I work from home and he goes into the company 5:30-2:30.
We both cook for our family plus two other families (10 people) I do the Laundry since I work in our basement and do it while I work. 
We both clean up the house but I am more of the control freak and like having this cleaned a certain way so I do more of the deep clean of things like cleaning bathroom, toilet, counter tops and things like that. I don’t feel like I do it all even though I do more.

Answer

As far as cleaning, we’ve always split it 50/50 since day one. I’m responsible for the kitchen, living room & bedrooms and he’s responsible for the bathrooms (we have 2 & 1/2) & yard work besides the garden. When it comes to cooking, I pretty much cook 98% of the time, he can cook as well but it’s once every blue moon.

Answer

Both of us it's OUR house and home.

Answer

He is full time working and I’m SAHM. Even tho it’s “my job” he will do it as well. Majority of the time it’s me bc I want to show I’m thankful for all he does. But if I were to ask or I’m not feeling well etc he sure will cook and clean. Or if we’re both lazy he’ll order out something 😂

Answer

We practice equal distribution of household jobs. He doesn’t like to cook so I do that. I hate doing laundry and folding clothes so he does that. We split the dishes evenly. He does the yard and maintains the cars, I make sure the bills get paid and keep the budget. On the weekends we spend an hour or so doing a general pick up of the entire house together.
