Lay ins

Hi all. I’ve written on here with a similar issue before I think. I’m pleased to say many of our relationship issues have very much Started to resolve themselves so things are looking up. However we still have this age old problem of DH sense of entitlement when it comes to relaxing and lay ins. We both work full time and he has a physically demanding job and brings in most of the money so he feels he should get away with cleaning and general running of the house and getting up in the night with DS and the early mornings. To the point where he leaves draws open, rubbish on the floor, washing sprawled around the house. Never does any chores. He does more now with DS in terms of bedtime routine and a few bits but I still feel it’s not enough. We both have long days at work both up at 6am and even though DS is 3 he isn’t a great sleeper so I’m very often up throughout the night. I do the getting ready in the morning, the nursery drop off and pick ups DH only really has to think about him self. I do all the cooking etc. I thought I’d at least deserve one lay in at a weekend and he can do the one morning. But no. He thinks he should get to play PlayStation after work and weekends, he deserves the lay in more than me etc. it feels like living with a teenager sometimes. Am I being unreasonable to want a bit more help? TYIA
