Well said Cass, LJ (I like that, my DD is LJ) it does sound like he is being a bit sulky, guys get PND too my DH did. He needs to suck it up and help you out more, as my DH says "happy wife, happy life" and someone said last week "we are on the same team" in other words instead of getting p***** off with each other, work together as a team. Communication is key, you need to let each other know how you are feeling rather than bottling it up. Feel free to vent any time, we understand.

Jandals- re: poo on carpet, my DH is a carpet cleaner so I will ask him tonight. I agree baby wipes are great. Some meal/snack ideas: Freeze soup into 250ml tubs. Nuts, sticks of vegies & hommus, yoghurt, fruit and my fav - thin rice cake with thin layer of jam and cottage cheese, my take on cheese cake.
