My parter is a good dad but sometimes very frustrating. He doesn't understand that being a mum can be difficult. My daughter is 5 months and at a stage of getting bored easily making it increasingly difficult to do house work. On those tough days he has come home asking "what have you done all day?" patronisingly. Somehow I always manage to make him fresh home made meals daily and yet if he doesn't have any lunch at work and I ask why, it's because I haven't made any for him. Why do I have to? Because "I work". I breastfeed and asked theoretically if I switched to formula would you help with night feeds. "Only on Friday and Saturday".
What really annoys me is at one point before our daughter I was working (always have until LO) and he was unemployed and I still manage to do more now with a baby than he ever did!
Anyone else's fella the same? I'm sure he thinks I sit around with my feet up drinking tea all day!
