no helper, no help too. when I gave birth to my 2nd baby, my 1st born is 2 years old, and I didn't engage Confinement Nanny. Husband took 1 month PM leave instead of 2 weeks paternity leave. He sent my elder boy to Childcare at 7am when he's out for work. He reached home around 2 pm and started preparing dinner and picking up my boy at 430pm. we share the workload together After my husband's one month PM leave, I handle everything myself, including pick up my boy from Childcare it's not easy but manageable

My husband is so scared to let go of the helper because he doesn’t want to lose his freedom. He’s the type who spends atleast 3 nights outside with his friends until late night, and he is get angsty at the thought of coming back home to having housework to help out with. He wants to keep the helper but I don’t want the helper anymore . I’ve made up my mind. Now I feel like he keeps picking on my cleaning , and the way I’m taking care of my toddler ever since I told him I’m planning to get rid of the helper. Sigh so it’s making me doubt myself
