You need to talk to him about this. So, give him some space when he comes home to unwind for like, an hour and then ask him if he can give you a break.Yes, you more than deserve a break. No one works 24hrs and that's essentially what you're doing. SAHM's do what's considered "domestic labor", it doesn't come with a paycheck, but it's still labor, meaning you deserve and need a break.
Does your significant other help out?
Let me start off when Connor was born. My husband done an amazing job taking care of him while I was still healing in the hospital. I never had to ask him to do anything other than bring Connor to me. I was amazed! But now Connor is going on 4 months and it's like my husband wants nothing to do with him or me? Should I be worried? For example: I take care of our son 24/7, while my husband works. When he gets off work in the day, shouldn't I get a break too? Mommies deserve breaks as well in my opinion. Another example: I always get up for the nightly feedings, if any. And as soon as Connor starts to get cranky he automatically hands him off to me and just plays on his phone or Xbox. I'm honestly really hurt and upset that he doesn't really want to help out. Any advice?
