I totally relate to this as my partner is like a tornado of mess haha there’s less to do when he’s not here but luckily he’s a good laugh so keeps us entertained 😅
Very relatable! My husband was home over Christmas, I constantly remind myself that the house things don’t matter too much. That our presence and being together around our little boy is what matters most. I can get back on top the house whilst he’s back at work. I’m naturally a tidier, he’s naturally a creator of carnage.
I can totally relate to Courtney! Love my husband to pieces, and he tries to help, but my God, why does he need 4 wooden spoons and a million pans to make spag bol! 😵💫 rather make it myself but he wants to help! 😅🙈
Was ranting about this as well yesterday. He didn't think to do baby a bottle as I didn't 'tell ' him to, while I popped out. He's good at doing anything i ask, and is a great dad, but honestly! I'm going back to work in Feb, and have said I can't do all the thinking when I'm working full time in a stressful role
@Rachel urgh mines the same. We have a rule now where you do the washing up if you cook. Coz I clean up as I go along anyway and that way it doesn’t stress me out when he uses 1000 dishes, pans and utensils to peel a banana 🤣😭
@Rachel hahaha oh my god why do they need every single utensil for the most basic of meals. And then leave every cupboard and drawer open 😂😂
I feel like this at times too. Everyone says the first year after having a baby is the hardest on relationships. I have found that I have to ask him what I need him to help me with specifically for anything to be done. Very annoying but it is just what we need for our communication. Sometimes there is a middle ground you have to reach which might seem crazy when they are being what just seems stupid, but you have to think is it a worthy sacrifice for the love you share with them x
