Just moved house, seven months pregnant with no 2 and a wilful 5 year old to contend with, I am off work at the moment but I have pretty much unpacked the whole house myself, repainted three and a bit rooms and worked hard to find/get things we need to make it our home. I have the start of SPD and had a sinus headache for a week. Why do I get 'you should rest more' and 'well I'll do more' when if I ask I get 'i haven't stopped'.

Things I have done today
Hoovered
Made non stop meals and snacks
Done the washing
Done homework with DD
Put away washing
Put away toys
Cleaned non stop
Prepped dinner
Prepped healthy snacks for DH

The 'haven't stopped since I got in' list
Dh nipped to shop (something he needed)
Half heartedly listened DD while she ate her food, focusing on newspaper/holidays for next year
Got washing in (I asked)
Put a box in the garage and put joint in the oven

The final straw was me getting something else to put in garage while it was open. I don't even get how this is a hardship??

Actions are speaking volumes above words at the moment!!

I don't think I Abu to storm upstairs and have a good cry!!!!

Why haven't you slapped him upside his head yet?! Tell him to get off his ass, be a man, and DO something. You poor thing.

Simple ... stop doing everything. Why are you cleaning non stop and making snacks for him?

monkeysee100 · 22/08/2017 20:04

I feel compelled to clean especially at the moment. It's an older house than we had and I find it hard to make it look really tidy for some reason. It's just not 'mine' yet.

The snacks, I was trying to support his diet. Surprise for after work
