I've had a lot of success in this area, but it's a trade off. The person who is not in charge has to keep their mouth shut and opinions to themselves. DH is in charge of dinner 2 nights great. Whatever he produces, you eat, and tell him it was great. He doesn't produce anything? You make yourself and egg white omelette and keep going. DH A takes the baby to daycare? You let him leave the house without the bottles. When the daycare calls, you give them DH's phone number.  What you don't do is fuss at DH when he gets home.  And it works in reverse. If you are in charge of setting up the nursery, he can't decide that he doesn't like the glider.

Of course there are many things you can do as a team.  But as kids enter the picture, there is an inevitable divide and conquer. If you insist on being a control freak and having it just so, then it's only fair to do it all yourself.

There will be some slipups at first. And some things will not be done to your standards. But you would be amazed at what grownup men can do if you back off and don't Monday Morning Quarterback. [/quote]
