[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all are headed for some really bumpy times ahead in your marriage if you can’t manage a 10 week old with one parent on leave and the other working a normal (for DC )work week. Sleep when the baby sleeps and do your chores like loading a dishwasher whenever. This is so not worth arguing about with a newborn baby in the house. [b]I kinda hate to say but mothering is not entirely fair or equitable. You as the mother will be tasked with the lion’s share of the work regarding the children and home.[/b][/quote] That may be empirically true, but it's not fair. OP should *absolutely* argue about it, or take whatever steps she needs to project herself. She shouldn't just give in. That means - quit pumping, ignore the dishes, ignore her DH harping about the dishes. PS some people can't just "sleep when the baby sleeps." Doesn't work for many of us, physiologically. [/quote]
