Husband kicking off over bath

Because he is locking the door... which is what this whole bloody post is about, she's asking him to not lock the door so if she needs to she can come in for a wee and he doesn't need to get out of the bath to open the door.

I would just go and use the toilet or it's that's a problem, she wee, garden, beaker? Xx

If this is an ongoing bladder issue, can you get an extra toilet? I don't think he is unreasonable to want a 25 minute bath without interruption.

And she should be able to have a wee in her own home. For goodness sake how long does it take to wee so hardly disturbing his precious bath time very much.

Get a camping loo

Why would he have to get out of the bath, if all you're doing is peeing. When I was with my ex, neither of us were worried about peeing in front of each other, it's not like you're pooping and stinking out the bathroom lol

i have what they call an irritable bladder and even at worst times i can go an hour easily usually 4 hours or more
being a couple we dont lock doors why should we
as long as its not having a pooh we dont mind the other having a wee while the other is doing their shower but usually its at scheduled times like before work in the morning. hence quick wee one has a shower the other makes the bed sorts clothes etc then the other dresses while the first showers seems common sense to us

I always nip in and have a wee before my dh gets in the bath. Once, I was desperate and made him pull the shower curtain across whilst I had the wee!!! I know we’re married, but I just can’t do bodily function things in front of him! It’s just the way I am. 🤭 Nor does he do that to me while I’m in the bath!

Remind me not have a cuppa in your house 😳🤮

Can't you pee in a jug / bucket / whatever? (then empty it as soon as possible).

Your poor son. That is vile.

there's only us and our cat, and I leave the door open. :P

Off topic a bit but yes it's a right flipping pain needing the loo alot.
I have kidney disease and need to maintain hydration but I get fed up trying to find a loo. And the lack of services on the A14 (big problem) .

Jesus, what a bloody drama. You may not be consciously aware of it, but this friction has to be about something else, not the bath/toilet. You are both being unreasonable!

We have a bell. A real ding ding bell bought from a car boot. Everyone who wants peace in the bath in our - six person, one bathroom household , must sound that bell before claiming bathroom. Oh my goodness. It’s worked! Even with the most recalcitrant teens.

My kids are now adults, however as I locked the bathroom door, they certainly didn't traipse in when I was in the bath or shower. They used the downstairs loo.

All these people that can’t be disturbed whilst they are in the bath clearly don’t have kids.

They love nothing more than to traipse in and out for multiple toilet trips whilst you “relax” 🤣🤣

No help.for op but this reminds me.of mine and dh first house. 2 up 2 down with bathroom downstairs. I would light candles, bubbles, glass of wine and book to read having a soak. cheeky face round the door and dh saying he needs a poo. Every fuffing time. We laugh. 40 years later we have 4 bathrooms plus 2 .guest toilets. We often reminisce about that first house and smile. Couldn't do it now but then being young and in love......😊

Wee in his wellingtons.

They can try medications, but those medications may not work.
If a doctor just nodded, you need to insist on some treatment.

What counts as reasonably-sized? Because my childhood home is detached with four bedrooms and only one bathroom with the only toilet in there.
I do think it would have been better with a downstairs toilet and there were many arguments when we all lived at home, but that's the way it is.

Bus drivers are mainly male. They often have to go behind walls, in bushes, etc. because they usually only have access to a toilet at their depot. Pretty awkward for a semi-rural bus driver.

This.
Me too when my bathroom was being renovated for 6 weeks due to a plonker plumber. I’ve had to pee in an old washing up bowl and in the garden.
why don’t you pee in a bucket and leave it in the bedroom, preferably his side of the bed, and when he comments, say you’ve made an en-suite because you need to wee while he’s luxuriating in the bath like the house is some kind of spa retreat. I went out with a bloke who told me that he loves to have a long bath and even lights candles. I can’t tell you how turned off I was by this.

We're a very open household.

The bathroom is like crewe station whenever I'm in there.

'What possible reason....?' OP has given the reason. It matters not 2 hoots that she pays half the mortgage if the door to the loo is locked and she can't get in! Yes, you might want to argue the toss with your DP but life is too short for these arguments where perspectives are irreconcilable. Of course, they could move to a 2 loo house or divorce but I think my suggestion is a little more pragmatic.
