Hi ladies
My hubby and I have been married for 3 years and have a 20 month old. We are pregnant with our second child, but lately we have been fighting so much over anything and everything. I am so tired of it and I am at my wits end. I love him so much but I just don’t know what to do anymore. The arguments are always over who does more around the house and who works harder. It’s the same argument all the time. Please help me.

Good luck when we go into lockdown
Very fucking helpful
I think you need to reconnect. Find the reasons you love him and work from the ground up.
Have a chores chart if it’ll settle arguments, like week a week b type things. I’ve seen them work for my friends.
Plus, your both probably feeling stressed, you have a young child and pregnant again.
You can work through it, open more communication without arguing.
So, swap roles.
You do what he does, he does what you do.
Noone understands someone else's perception without experience.
Then, relationship counselling so the 2 of you learn to communicate properly.
I can't deal with conflict, I literally break down. That's part and parcel of growing up with unhealthy conflict in the home. Don't do that to your kids.
I work full time, study full time, run the house, do the groceries, cook all the food, organise schooling, birthdays etc and have two children that I do everything for!!! My other half is unemployed, maintains our property and cares for his elderly parents. We used to have this argument often, but I learnt to stop comparing... it doesn’t matter who does more, just making sure it’s done and your happy, is what matters.
I’m currently pregnant with number 3 and have had two of these fights recently with my partner, I really do think it’s to do with not being able to do everything you normally can do when not pregnant.
I hate my house being a mess but I just can’t do it!
They do work hard (specially if a tradie etc) but so do we (I work part time). It will be ok!
