I had a baby a few days ago. DPs way of helping is to do all the housework, even though I would rather he helped with looking after other toddler dc and making dinner etc and leave the housework but he has issues around. This which we have addressed before and I thought were resolved. Nothing can be let go so I don't feel I can relax, no eating biscuits on the sofa because of crumbs, teacup to be washed up straight away, I am knackered and just wAnt to lie down!
Today I did baby's first bath, I told dp 20 mins beforehand as he asked to be told, called him as I got started, p didn't come to see because he was cleaning lampshades and didn't want to stop before he had done all the rooms so he missed it.
I feel like checking into a hotel with baby and dc1 to get out of the way and let him clean without us making a mess.
Am I being hormonal or would this get to anyone else?
