[quote=Anonymous]OP, I’m sure you’d husband believes you get lots of time to yourself, when the toddler naps, is babysat, you can go to a gym with babysitting, and honestly a toddler should not need constant attention.

I work and bring home the toddler and while I make dinner I give DD a bowl and spoon and some dried pasta, and that entertains her for the whole time while we ‘cook’ together.

Assuming your DH is a breadwinner, even if it is a desk job it is a lot of weight on the shoulders to worry about providing for his family, and likely can’t slip away and take a nap or go to the gym like you can. He can be drained by the weekend, esp if stressed or long commute and hours every day.

Honestly, you might consider a part time job and preschool

We are an egalitarian household regarding chores, but we both work and that’s part of that arrangement. And we NEVER get time t ourselves to really relax. But we also both have relatively low stress jobs and neither is on the hook for ALL the money. [/quote]
