I am writing to ask if you can help me to persuade my husband to do less around the house. I am worried that he is going to make himself ill from exhaustion. Also, and it is hard for me to say this to him without being hurtful, I married him for his fun personality not his work ethic and I fear I am losing him to domestic drudgery. I want an equal partner, not a slave.

We have a toddler and a baby, born few months ago. During the pregnancy, I was quite tired and run down and my darling, supportive husband started to do more and more around the house and with our son (and despite a full-time, responsible job, he has always done more than his fair share of housework). I am now breastfeeding the baby, which is tough because he barely stops feeding and won't really nap anywhere except in my arms.

So this leaves my husband doing the shopping, tidying, washing and cooking. He gets up at 6am every morning to get our toddler ready for nursery, with a packed lunch, and he drops him off before he can get himself off to work. Meanwhile, I just sit around feeding the baby!

I feel permanently guilty and as if the only way I will get my husband to do less is if I do more. The thing is that I can walk away from mess and he can't.

I hugely appreciate him helping, but, beyond the basics, would rather see him sleeping or even cuddling me on the sofa rather than trying to be on top of everything. I love my husband – he is truly the sweetest, most loving, most wonderful lover and father, but I find myself resenting the fact that I barely see his fun side these days because he is so tired that he is essentially ill – and I can't help thinking it is at least partly self-inflicted

Pray for him to learn how to take rest

You are dam lucky having a miracle like him

Hold him tight and treat him well

When you stop him today and tomorrow when you are in this situation he fail to do the chores then he becomes a bad husband.

Appreciate the gift of God in the husband he has given you then once in a while when you feel he is over working himself call and tell him you would finish it so that he can relax and encourage this attitude in him because you force him to loose it, he may be unwilling to pick it up again
May ur home continually radiate joy and I believe when he sees you are strong enough to effectively handle the chores he would gladly and willingly step down

Firstly, thank your star you have such a wonderful caring, bla bla bla husband...because a huaband of such is very difficult to come by.
Secondly, dont try to discuss this with any of your friends if you dont want to share your husband or even loose him totally to someone else
Thirdly, for the fact that you breasfeed the baby most times and the baby wont retire to any other person's hand doesnt mean you cant put the back to bed while sleeping, and of course take up the resposibility of doing the chores so that your husband can stayoff the chores so that he doesn't look worn out of chores atall time if you really want the funny side of your husband again.

Do the house hold chores before your husband does them.

That's a lovely husband you have.
If I may ask you, you kwn ur man better, has he been doing this before you guys got married or his behavior just suddenly change ?
Pple like him don't like seeing dirty & can't stay in dis-organize environment. Just try to always cushion him.
I have seen few men like him, when you look deep down family history you will be amazed that it boils down to good parental up bring. From expirence.

Before I got to where you mentioned it, I already knew the possible cause of his action. YOU COULD WALK AWAY FROM MESS BUT HE CAN'T. All need to do now is try to understand him and in your own part, always tell him to his face that you appreciate what he is doing and assure him that you are going to relief him of all that as soon as possible. If you are missing the fun part of him, let him know of it and you guys can even schedule time for taken care of the house together while catching the the fun as well. It will only require adjustment in your previous time arrangement. Eg you guys can agree to do d house work when the kids are sleeping.

How about you stop being lazy and get stuff done around the house.

You resent him for not wanting to live in filth.
