Hi

My husband and i had an argument the other night. I asked him for some help around the house. Ok he occasionally cooks dinner but thats it. Since I've been on Mat leave (my daughter now 10.5 months) the responsibility has fallen on me.

While he loves his daughter immensely his way of dealing with things is to go to the bedroom and shut the door. Did the same when she was newborn and it really hurt and still does. I know he is being a neanderthal pig but I don't really know what to do about it.

The only reason I asked for his help is because Bubba has been having difficulty going to sleep .. every sleep day and night. Its obvious that she is very tired but the only way I can help her to nod off is by walking in the pram three times a day. So after about 3 weeks of this I asked for his assistance to which he said no. I only asked because I had reached breaking point and needed help. He said that my life is easy and that plenty of women do it. He also says that I should go to work and try it ... I have always worked except for now ..because I had a baby. And I am going back to work in Jan.

What do you think?
