[quote=Anonymous]Is there any chance he is depressed? I had a hard time getting a job out of grad school and was a stay at home wife for periods of time between temp jobs, and I basically did nothing. I laid on the couch and ate and slept all day. Looking bad I was probably depressed, though I didn't know it at the time. Or did the younger kid just start preschool in Jan and this is the first time in 7 years he hasn't had kid duty all day and he is temporarily worn out?

I am now a SAHM to a preschooler and a baby and I do pretty much all the domestic work, or at least as much as I can get done. DH doesn't expect anything in particular, but the point of me staying home is so we can do more fun family things when he is not working.

Definitely have a talk with DH. Explain that you are growing resentful and that can only lead to one place. It may be better for your marriage if he goes back to work full time and you hire a nanny. Hopefully the dinner thing was just a one time brain lapse and not intentional.[/quote]
