To want to throw dirty nappies at DH?

[scentednappyhag]

Argh.

He's been signed off work for a month, and (bar xmas day and boxing day) sat on his computer for on average 10 hours a day.
We have a 14 month old DD, and on the two occasions I've asked him to watch her for an hour he's got sulky and still been playing on the pc when I've got back. He hasn't helped with any night feeds while he's been off.

Now today I'm reaching the end of my tether. He's barely said two words to me all day, DD has been a grumpy so and so and he hasn't once tried to help, got up and decided he was having a long bath an hour ago, and has just BLOODY PHONED ME from the bathroom to ask me to bring him a drink, all the while having a screaming and sticky toddler chewing my ankles.

AIBU for staring to get a bit hacked off now?

Why has he been signed off?

He hurt his back. I had sympathy at first, but he hasn't bothered with his physio appointments, and isn't following the gps advice either.

Sounds like he is one of 'those' men sorry to say!

If he wont help himself, why should you help him. Tell the lazy shit to get off his backside, and a bit of exercise might make him feel better.

Sitting at a computer for 10 hours a day is probably the root of his problems.

In that case I would be furious with him. He should be making every effort to do his physio and get better.
As for phoning you from the bath to fetch him a drink....well words fail me.
Is he always this lazy and selfish?

People have their phone in the bath?

How did he hurt his back? (Just trying to get a full and accurate picture )

Just go upstairs and drown him in his bath. What a knob.

He's always been of the mind that as I'm a SAHM at the moment, childcare and house work (except washing up, I don't want to drip feed) is my job 7 days a week, but up until this month I wouldn't have described him as selfish or lazy, just that he works all week and, while I would have appreciated more help, not doing any less than he should exactly. But now... I just can't wait for him to piss of back to work so I only have one child to run about after

Why is he taking his phone in the bath? why the secrecy?

I am a SAHWife... but at weekends we both muck in together on jobs that need doing. Over christmas he has done equal amounts of housework as he has made equal amounts of mess.

Stop running around after him, and let him do it himself. The more you do it, the more he will expect it.

I'm not concerned about having his phone in the bathroom, he plays music/games on it and I can't be trusted not to change his Facebook status to something embarrassing
He hurt it by falling down the stairs at work (possibly outed myself now).
I think you might just have a point there Squeaky. it's a bad night to be a bottle of wine in my fridge...!
