Partners helping

My husband is responsible for the bins, garden & maintenance always. My jobs laundry, hoovering. Other than we just share the other jobs depending on when he’s working. However he works 3 long days a week, leaves at 6am - home at 9:30pm. On the days when he is home is always helps gets them dressed, feeding breakfast, loves taking them to the park. When he’s home bath time is his job and he puts the little one to bed too. But as I said he’s not here 3 days a week so when he is, he just wants to spend as much time as he can with them xx

I’m on maternity leave while my partner works evenings. He is still very hands on with baby (feeding, nappy changes ect) and he also helps around the house (bins, washing up, hoovering ect). No set jobs just work as a team xx

My partner works odd shifts so we have never got ourselves into a routine, because we can't. His work days are different every day and every week. Because of that I pretty much do everything. When he's home he'll take the baby and they'll play and he'll do some nappies...but honestly that's it. I also exclusively breastfeed so he can't help there lol. Housework wise he'll take the odd bin out and change the odd lightbulb. So yeah, no balance here either! But because of work not because he's not helpful. He will be looking after baby the mornings I return to work in march so we may fall into a bit more of shared responsibility then x

My partner works full time with 2 days at home. He usually only actually does stuff with baby if I ask which is frustrating but will interact with her when he sees her too. Otherwise he will do dinner at weekends or if I haven't eaten, some housework and walks dog am and pm. I feel so drained.

My husband does all the cooking and up until I was maternity did all the washing. We are fortunate to have a cleaner every other week so we just need to keep on top of the cleaning. We joke that I’m strategy and he’s implementation. My baby is EBF so he can’t help with that but he routinely takes the baby when I want to go out for an hour or two and most days he takes the baby and the dog out for a walk to give me a break
