Husband never helps with DD belongings when we go away/out for the day

Hi, this is probably me being over sensitive as DH has been doing my head in all day. Basically whenever we go out for the day or packing the car for a weekend away (like this evening) he will expect me to remember everything for my DD (she is 5) and never says “oh don’t forget a coat” or “i’ve put her favourite teddy in the car” etc. So then he’s moaning in the car at me to hurry up and asking me what i’m doing, getting angrier. Then I end up getting in the car or down the road and have forgotten something e.g. an umbrella and it’s meant to rain or her water bottle etc. It really winds me up. I shouted at him tonight saying to stop moaning because if he actually used his brain and started putting things in the car himself or reminding me of stuff, I might be less likely to forget. I am really not a forgetful person, I’m very organised but he has me on edge rushing and blames me if anything has been forgotten. Err she’s both of our child. Anyway AIBU to expect him to at least take some responsibility, I’m just so annoyed at him because he’s been moaning all day? We have a leak in the house since this morning after lots of house things going wrong since January, so he’s more uptight than usual and then the plumber was 45 mins late when we were waiting to leave for a weekend away. Sorry for the essay, I don’t usually post on here but have been following lots of threads recently so thought why not ask you all! :-)

He is a nob. He shouldnt be shouting at you. Ever.

Tomorrow he is responsible for getting your dd reay and you must not interfere. But also note, lots of the things you might deem to be important when leaving the hosue, really arent.
