I am feeling so down just now.
My partner and I have a little girl who is 19 months. She has additional needs which has meant I wasn't able to return to work. My husband works from home and works long hours.
Due to her needs I am unable to get much housework/general cleaning stuff or actually anything much at all done while I look after her and my husband says that he feels "trapped" with her at the weekends while I "disappear" ..this Is the time I use to go and do washings, housework etc. Despite this barely scratching the surface of what needs done at home.
He thinks his weekend should be time to relax!
I don't know what to do to try and make things fair. I am with her mon-fri from 8-8 really. I keep breaking down in tears 😭 it's a constant argument about how I have one job ( our daughter) and be has his job but then has a second job in our daughter.
. sorry, this is all a bit jumbled.

You need to split the housework with DH. It shouldn’t be taking all weekend to do the housework.

Things like washing you should be able to get done with her during the week.
