I worry I am turning into a Naggy wife. I am home all day. Husband gets in to hot dinner at six. I have dinner and last night I went grocery shopping. I asked him to sort the clothes.. All dry but when I got home he had taken his boxers and tshirts and the rest were left on the landing. I got home, put on the fresh linen.

He did help put away a bit of the shopping.

I do all ironing etc.. But I am stopping the ironing for him.

I honestly don't know what is fair. I am off work but baby has to be nursed all day and mil rang yesterday and doesn't drive so I called to her so there wasnt that much time left in the say.

When I go back to work I will have to do everything!! I don't want a cleaner in so do I jus suck it up. He does the night feeds, changes the bin and some nights sterilises bottles.. Is that enough?

Well.... you can go the route of quietly seething, passive aggressive, eye-rolling, snide comments and leaving washing to fester... and it ends up as big flash-point argument. Hmm Or you can be mature about it, sit down together, articulate the problem, work out some solutions between and everyone agree to stick to it.
