OP:
I come home at 9 from work sometime and the baby has been in bed since 730.

He relaxes from 730-1030 every night maybe other than to take out the trash / wash his dishes.

I come home and need to clean up after the baby and cook for the next day.

He does 10% of that.

This is crazy.  He does the pick up, playing with the child, feeding the child, bath and bedtime routine all on his own while working full time.  Yet you think you should come home from work and have zero household responsibilities?  How on earth is that equitable?  You are both parents.  You are both working.  [/quote]

THIS. He’s probably exhausted after a working a full day, having to switch gears immediately to all the hands on caretaking, and according to OP he’s doing the morning drop offs, etc. Grow up, OP.  Chasing a tired toddler (and they are almost always cranky and exhausted after daycare) after a full day is taxing and often frustrating. So there are some dishes in the sink and toys on the floor? Get over yourself. You are clearly so uninvolved with the daily management of this child that you don’t actually know what goes into daily caretaking. I would say the same thing if this were a man posting to complaining about his wife.[/quote]

You sound ridiculous OP, like you are expecting a stepford wife type clean house and hone-cooked meal when you get home each day. You don't have a SAHP! You sound very full of yourself. Yep kids change your life and career too.[/quote]
