To be fuming with DH?

[bibbetybobbetybooo]

I'm so angry - resisting the urge to go mental at him.

Basically - baby didn't really sleep at all last night and I've been up since 6.30am with all the children.

DH slept in until after 1pm when I had to go and actually wake him up.

This morning I've looked after the children, fed them, done all the washing/sorting/tidying. Batch-cooked a shitload of stuff and taken them to various different activities. One has GCSE coursework and was getting massively stressed out. So that was fun.

So, when I suggested that I felt tired I didn't expect a load of abuse. A load of 'you've done nothing, you're lazy, you don't even work' type of abuse.

I had a nap for 2 hrs (because I was so exhausted) and left him to it. Apparently that's me being massively selfish and I need to get a grip.

I'm not happy.

Why not leave him to deal with it all, take a few days away at friends/parents/hotel and let him work out just how lazy you are when he has to cope with everything.

But, and I'm sorry if this is hurtful, he is never going to suddenly get it and say 'darling, I have been an unreasonable wretch, put your feet up while I hoover' he sounds far too selfish and self absorbed to think of anyone else. He is an awful example for your DC and sounds rather Unpleasant to be around.
