Hi all

I love my DH don't get me wrong but I feel so underappreciated? Im not sure if my idea of what a man should do if he respects you or appreciate what you do is right....

Today I have done almost everything I usually do. Get DD (8) and DS(20Months) up fed washed dressed, cleaned house done my errands, got on top of the mountains of washing that seem to just magically appear here overnight! I'm pretty sure there is someone living here I haven't met yet the amount I have seriously.
Done my daily errands, registedered his business cooked tea. ( Spaghetti Bolognese) which he complained about and left, said his usual no effort involved and that it wasn't good enough, so after asking what DH wanted to eat, I was met with well what is there, I rounded a list off and nothing tickled his fancy. To then sit for the next hour asking me what's for his tea 👿👿👿👿👿👿 meanwhile I've bathed DS, got him ready for bed, DH is at this point sat on his bloody phone browsing FB telling me he's looking for potential jobs.

The next thing I'm being told how I never do anything to facilitate ease in his day or to help him. I am up and on the sofa for around 4am everynight with DS he won't sleep through unless we're in the front room on the sofa even at weekends DH doesn't get up with him, he will vac up occasionally but I don't ask for help with jobs. I'm so tired I can't think straight,
he works hard I know he does I appreciate all he does, I am a sahm I also had a chemical pregnancy last week, tested positive on Thursday AF turned up today 😭 I am on POP he didn't even get up to hug me or say I'm sorry your going through this or it's okay I love you. Instead back to browsing on FB ☹️☹️

Am I expecting to much? When I broach the subject all I hear is well your "just a stay at home mum" don't I do enough to warrant a break to? Aibu???????

Why do you love him? What joy does he bring to your life? That is no way to live, and what it is teaching your children about love and relationships? Do you want this for them?

Please don't put up with this any longer. You deserve so much better and are worth so much more than this. I really think you should Ltb! But if you won't then just stop doing it all for him. You are not his slave!
