[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me guess, you're a SAHM and DH is a high earner[/quote]

OP here: nope! I earn at least $10K more than he does with more almost guaranteed promotion potential in the coming year. We are going tobbe splitting paid parental leave almost equally. He is really awesome as an almost equally involved parent. I mean we have a sort of division of labor right now with him taking care of the older kids more and me focusing on BFing baby/healing myself as I literally gave birth a week ago. I don't know any other more capable and involved father. He takes the kids out every single day to a different playground/park. He cares about their health and safety so much.

And, I have known this a while but didn't mention in my post: you may notice DH's criticisms/harshness to me pretty much always revolves around the kids' health and safety. It's just often so seemingly overboard. Like you need to trust me that my 3rd time around breastfeeding successfully I am not endangering or harming the child by watching a show while holding/BFing him. He's just so hyper protective once again probably due to his childhood trauma and wanting to protect his dear kids.

Unfortunately then that turns to blaming/attacking me [/quote]
