To want my family to shut up?

I'm not well and have gone back to bed at DH s insistence. But I haven't been able to get any sleep because he's making no effort to keep quiet. Noise really carries in our house, so it's not entirely his fault - but SIL has popped over for a visit, so the kids are all excited, DS1 is shouting at the top of his lungs, one of DS2s noisy toys keeps going off, and at no point have I heard DH say anything about keeping the noise down. I don't want complete silence, just a little bit quieter - like normal speaking voices and toys that don't play annoying tunes over and over.

When he's ill I make a real effort to keep everyone quiet so he can rest. AIBU to expect the same?

He is an arse.

But remember to hold the grudge for when he is next ill. .

My exh made a big deal about getting up with the dc on a Sat so I could lie in. .
Then he sent then to play in their bedrooms - upstairs next to ours!!
