I'm not a messy person I can't go to bed with a dirty house. Its not fair to me that I work and clean my butt off and every time I leave home, its clean when I come back its filthy, trash on the counters, diapers over the floor, baby food everywhere ect. So that's why I decided to clean so late we were all wide awake. Why not?
If you routinely put your child to bed at 4am - then cleaning until 2:30am really isn't that big of a deal. You are obviously on a different time schedule than most people.
Now I'm pissed because you guys are completely missing my point. I work all throughout and day and when I'm not working I'm tending to our daughter. When I get home the house and kitchen is a mess IM THE ONLY ONE THAT CLEANS. my daughter is 10 months she goes to bed around 4am every night. Why? That's her sleep pattern shopping at 12am is the only free time I had to go grocery shopping and the reason I cleaned so late was because I was tired of looking at a dirty house...
Sheesh you guys are missing the point I don't need advice on how I raise my child or why I choose to shop when I do... I simply ask AM I OVERREACTING for wanting some ****ing help ! And lastly I'm not going to post EVERY detail. He's a late bird he sleeps through the day and doesn't go to sleep until about 4am.
Has he always been like this--not doing his share around the house? Did you ask him to put away the groceries or wash the dishes? If you both work, why isn't this a team effort? Is this what you want to live with for the next 20 years?
Wow. That schedule sounds chaotic and exhausting. And it's reflecting on your marriage.
Pull yourselves together and get on a healthy schedule. Your baby will be a toddler in a few short months so now is the time to get in line with bedtime. Get organized. Put your foot down. Take charge of your household. Let your husband know you are serious.
If you don't take control and make some changes in your parenting lifestyle now you will pay the price for years.

Have you discussed it with him? If so, and nothing's changed, or he says it's your job, why are you still with him? How much longer do you think this can go on before either of you gives up and leaves? He's under no obligation to continue living with you. If you continue cleaning and cooking for him, though, he might, though he won't necessarily be pleasant about it. And you sometimes make more than he does? Yeah, he's got a fairly cushy deal. He'll ride that wave as long as you let him.
So, why did you guys decide to have another kid? Do you need to revisit your bc choices with your doc?

They're not married.
The kids will pay the price, too, living in a chaotic household where mom and dad don't get along. And something tells me they'll end up neglected during those very dependent years of toddlerhood. Is there going to be daycare for them, while you two work? What's the plan, there? Is there a plan? Was any of this foreseen at all, and discussed?
And just so you know - 2 kids so SO much harder than 1. So talk to your boyfriend NOW and try to work this out before your life becomes a million times crazier.
