A pregnant mum says she’s ‘at her wit’s end’ with her husband, who refuses to do housework, even though she works full time and he’s a stay-at-home-dad.

The 28-year-old mum-of-one, who is also pregnant, says she’s out of the house for most of the day, while her husband Jack, 33, is home with their toddler.

“Jack doesn’t do anything,” she told an online forum. “He never sets an alarm to get up with the toddler. I do. He sits in the living room until our toddler’s nap (which varies every day) then goes to the basement to play his video games. Our toddler will sleep anywhere from 2 to 3 hours.

“Then once our toddler wakes up, he gets her, makes dinner, and maybe gets one chore done around the house. Almost every day he does this. There are some days when I’m pleasantly surprised.”

The exhausted mum says she’s spoken to her husband multiple times about keeping the house clean, but he says it’s ‘not fair’ that she doesn’t have to do anything – which she says isn’t true.

“If the house is kept up on, I do dishes, laundry, and meal prep on my days off. Sometimes I’ll bake too. I’ll also be on toddler duty. However once he lets the house go, I don’t do anything other than clean the areas my toddler is in so she’s not affected by it because she deserves a clean house.

“I have (almost) gotten the house completely cleaned three times now, and he lets the house go. I’ve tried splitting chores, but again, it’s hard when I work full time and I’m out of the house the majority of the day. My job has me on my feet all day and some days are harder than others.”

The expecting mum says has previously proven to her husband that if the roles were reversed she would have the house clean ‘for him’.

“Jack claims that’s not true. He claims it’s my fault that the house is trashed because I should do more, yet I work full time because he didn’t want to work, which I supported and made more sense financially. I have also been really tired and just want to sleep due to my pregnancy, but Jack gets mad if I don’t wake up in the morning, even though I let him sleep in most mornings.”

The frustrated mum says she didn’t want to share her story online, but is at her wit’s end and needs advice.

“We literally had another fight about the house being trashed and instead of helping me clean like I asked, he’s now working in the garage. (Jack will literally find other things to do other than clean the house. For example, if there’s a task that needs to be done, he’ll take all day to do it, even if it’s an hour long job).

“So am I the a**hole for expecting my husband to clean the house? Should I be doing more?”
