[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks, all. You are making me think of things that I haven't considered (noise level, in-laws being disturbed, etc.) Unfortunately DH just isn't equipped to handle making the basement comfortable himself (he doesn't know the first thing about mattresses or bedding), so I will have to just suck it up and do the work. :roll: [/quote] your husband is a grown man. He can go to the store. He can learn. If you do this, he does something for you. As the PPs said, don't be a martyr. More generally, if your husband accepts work, he does it. Don't ignore this. When your kid is born you'll think you're better than your husband at all sorts of things. You'll probably be right, too. But if you want him to pitch in, he needs to learn. LEt him learn to start stepping up so we don't see you back on this board in 6 months talking about how your husband doesn't do anything with the baby. That is all. [/quote]
