Husband sulking if i ask for help with DC

My husband rolls his eyes and sighs loudly if i ask him to help, but luckily he still helps

Yesterday he was in the shower at 7pm after coming from his bike ride and toddler was crying for food

So i told DH that dinner was ready and if he could please take it out of the oven and put it in our toddler's plate as i was breastfeeding our newborn

I cant open the oven with a newborn latched on (baby is very colicky and when he latches on it s often after an hour of crying his heart out)

If i ask DH why is he sulking, he says that I am only asking him to help because i am just jealous of him having a moment for himself (bike ride + shower)

He works 5 days a week and would like to relax a bit. I m on maternity leave this year.

AIBU?

As there is less stigma with divorce, women are now able to earn their own money without society judging them and more acknowledgment of abuse, women are no longer forced to endure horrible relationships and are in a better position to leave and support their children on their own.

Whereas before, if a women wanted to leave a relationship, they would have had no money to go anywhere, zero support from the authorities, possibly little support from their families, could have lost their children and the judgement from those around them.

This is not true in all cases, obviously, but imagine how many women would have left their relationships if they had been able to.
