[quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t matter what we think is reasonable, what matters is what you and your husband think is reasonable. In your case, I would say something like “hey babe, I know babies are a ton of work and you don’t always have time to wash all the bottles during the day, but coming home from work and having a whole bunch more stuff to do while you chill out with your book is making me feel [...however it’s making you feel — like you’re not a team?]. I’d like us to handle this differently.” And then listen. Be open to his suggestions as long as they accomplish your goal (feeling supported and like you guys are in this together), even if they’re not how you’d prefer it to be handled. [/quote]
