Need to control my anger

Since dd was born 18 months ago, DH and I have had some rocky times, I find him very difficult to live with now we have a child and I sometimes find myself losing my rag very quickly with him.

He has OCD which drives me up the wall, he never listens if I ask him to do something (change bin or whatever) it's always 'I'll do it later' when I'm already trying to cook or sort DD. The thing that worries me most though is I don't trust him to be capable of looking after dd alone, that sound so awful but today he was supposed to be watching her while I cooked and I walked in to find her chewing a battery and he hadn't noticed! There have been a few instances like this, the problem I have is a completely lose my temper with him which I know is wrong. I shout and get so wound up because he doesn't ever learn, I need to deal with this better and especially stop yelling in front of daughter.

Any advice welcome and thanks for reading

How does his OCD manifest itself ?

If your daughter has been chewing a battery you need to get her urgent medical attention

The battery wasn't leaking or corroded at all.

He has to do everything in threes, 3 kisses, 3 twists on the milk bottle lid etc etc, he can't stand clutter is constantly faffing around behind me and dd straightening things and hanging stuff up, can't leave the house with checking taps, plugs, windows etc. It's totally exhausting living with him and it bother me that sometimes he must do something to satisfy his OCD urge than do something more important like strap dd in car or whatever

Thst sounds exhausting. And incompatible with safeguarding your dd.
