I am feeling very unsure about something, I have a pile of ironing on the kitchen table which I planned to do last night after my toddler went to bed. I do not iron when he is around as he is always pulling and pushing me and I worry about an accident. He is your typical toddler, interested in everything and does not always respond to 'no'. Anyway last night I was too exhausted to do the ironing and planned to do it today.
This morning I went upstairs to have a shower and left my husband watching our son. When I came back down my husband was doing the ironing and my toddler was beside him playing with his cars. I was really upset that my husband was ironing with my toddler so close. He said he was being careful and watching but I know how quickly and easily accidents can happen. He was annoyed and said he felt like he couldn't do anything right. I know I should have been grateful that he was ironing but I was just so upset that he was doing it with our toddler running round beside him.
I feel really upset now and worried that I overreacted. What do you think?
