Hi ladies, I'd really like your opinion because I'm losing sight of the situation. My husband and I have an 8-month-old son. My husband works full-time Monday to Friday, and I work 24 hours spread over three days, Thursday to Sunday. In those 8 months, he has never woken up at night; she wakes up at least twice a night to feed. Between 7:00 and 8:00, she wants to get up. This also falls only on me. He sleeps through until usually 1:00 PM on weekends. After his workday, he lies on the couch until he can sleep. So I'm the one who cooks, does the housework, and takes care of all the solid food and breastfeeding, bath time, and cleaning. Now I'm really exhausted and begging him to help me out by taking care of the baby one night a week. Every week I hear no. He argues that I only work three days and he works five. Are there other women in this situation who can give me tips on how to handle it better and distribute everything more fairly? Love,
