[quote=Anonymous]OP. I hear sirens. You are bean counting and it's going to screw your marriage up big time. As someone who's been there, done that, you have to bite a bullet and give your spouse space to decompress -- although come to think of it, the man basically wakes up before 5 a.m. every day, works 12 hours and helps you at home, and takes up a good amount of his non-working time participating in child rearing, so I don't see a problem as much as I see someone who is just over their heads, needs a break, and might need to look at another option beyond being home full time. Being a SAHP is hard. But working is harder and having to keep the family financially afloat is harder, and you are lucky but just don't see it likely because you are stuck in your head about how hard everything is (note to self -- it isn't).

OP you need to find a job. I mean that. Put that kid in a home daycare and go back to work. Because the choice to stay home is just that -- a choice. And it's a choice that comes with a lack of free time when your kids are awake (hence the naps).

I am more worried about your inability to deal with a toddler gym class. You might want to go to the doctor because there may be something more serious at play there. GL[/quote]
