Have 3 dds youngest just started reception.
Two youngest have a small amount of additional needs which results in some medical appointments and slightly more assistance with personal care. I deal with the appointments and most of the care.
Working dh has a regular office jobs which pays all the bills.
I work freelance and work variable hours. Normally between 1 and 16 per week. Although 16hours is only really pre Christmas. Rest of the year lots less. I also study about 5 hours per week.
So due to my limited hours I pretty much do everything at home. Dh will look after the kids if I am physically working away from home. But rarely picks up the slack if I am doing admin or work prep. Obviously I do more of this when Dd3 is at school but there are times when I can't.
Yesterday was a case in point. I was out for 6 hours at an event. He had the kids whilst Was out and took one to an activity but that was it.
So today I did some admin, shopping, laundry etc whilst he did one activity for an hour with Dd2.
So during the week I do get free time during the day but evenings and weekends are full on. I am out every venting taking kids to activities etc although dh will do them if I am at work. Won't put the kids to bed though or wash up.
So I guess I am feeling overwhelmed as it's a busy period.
So should he step up more or should I take the hit as I work less at other times.
