After the birth of my 2nd dd my relationship with dp has been slowly crumbling. We fight in a daily basis about who does the most, who wakes up the most, who has the most work load. If I say I'm tired he will say that he is just as tired as he worked late. It really annoys me. The age gap between my children is small, 19 months. It's been very stressful and I've suffered with bad pnd for a 2nd time. Sec is non existent because I just don't feel in the mood at all and my dp works in the evening from home, so sex and then work isn't really my idea of romance. Money is also very tight and it's really putting a strain on our relationship. I feel so angry and pissed off at him all the time. I don't know why I get so angry but I feel as though I am mum and that's it, my day is obviously fun and exciting to him and I'm always on a jolly with my friends. Which in reality isn't true. I am everyone's slave, picking up after everyone, cooking an cleaning whilst e gets to go for glamourous business lunches etc. when I say I'm at capacity he says he is too. This just irritates the hell out of me. What can I do? I don't know how to mend my relationship. There's no sex (my fault), no affection (my fault), just stress and arguments. If anyone has any advice or experience. Any words of wisdom to say things will get better.
Thanks xx
