[quote=Anonymous]I don't have advice, but maybe I define mental load differently. I think by asking him to do XYZ I am already doing the mental work of thinking about the things that need to get done. Example, last week we went on a trip. I SAH so usually I pack for DH, baby, and me. It takes a lot of planning and thinking. Leading up to our trip I was very busy, so I asked him to take over packing, I had already done about 60% of it. It wasn't as much help as I wanted because I had to tell him exactly all the things we still needed to pack (I had told him what was packed too (sometimes more than once) and also where to find them...
