Parent Question: How do you guys work as a team when it comes to your kids?
Who works? Clean chores? Cook? Puts baby to sleep? Or is it usually equal work?

We both work just he works out of the house. I try to have the house clean when he gets home and a plan for dinner. Most nights he cooks, I get homework and baths done. If I cook he does bath. I do bedtime with baby he handles the older 2.
@twinpower_94 yes I get up in the middle of the night with the baby. My husband works with power I'm not willing to risk his life by being tired because he wakes up with the kids.
We both work. On weeknights I will cook bc I get home first but then he will clean up after dinner. I do bath time and he does bedtime. It’s pretty equal for the most part. I do more on the weekends like laundry and grocery shopping.
I'm a stay at home mom so I do pretty much all the home work and my husband is kind of self employed so some days he's home all day and some days he's working but when it comes to cleaning if I ever ask him he would happily chip in quickly sweeping or dishes if I need him to. I cook. I put the baby to sleep but sometimes he does bedtime routine for our older 2 which is nice for him and them. We have a really nice routine that works well for us as of now. It'll be interesting to see how it changes when baby comes in February. But we will get into a routine then too 🙂 the main importance is communication.
@twinpower_94 when they were real little it was a lot of the same honestly. He would cook sometimes but for the most part I did the house work
I’m a stay at home mom . I try my best to clean as much as I can . I mostly have dinner prep and when it come time for cooking it’s who ever gets to it first . Mostly I start than have to feed the baby so he finish . And bed time I do one girl he does the other
My husband works from home. The kids clean. I don’t. I cook generally. The kids put themselves to sleep.
I stay home. Hubs works. I do majority of the cleaning but he pitches it when I get overwhelmed. He also does the yard work.
When it comes to the kid I mostly take care of her during the week and weekends he helps with bedtime, dinner or whatever.
We split household work, and we split bedtime, switching who does which kid each night
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
How many days do you have left ?!?
How many days until you're done work- if you're still working ?!
I really don't understand the judgment between being a working mom or a stay at home mom. If you need to work, work. If not, don't. No need to degrade other women for doing the opposite of you. 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
We are having a debate at work....
Should you pick up hitchhikers?
How many of you ladies work??
Before covid I worked part time and hubby worked 50+ hours a week.
Since covid my job is closed down so I am home more, but I also am homeschooling my 2 nephews as well as my daughter. Thankfully hubby is still working.
But whenever hubby is home he helps around the house and with our daughter or our nephews. He does any chores I haven't been able to get to or just gives me a break.
I would say I've always been the primary caregiver for our daughter because I'm home more, but hubby definitely isn't a slouch and participates in any housework or childcare when he's home. But his main duties are mopping the kitchen floor and folding the laundry because those are the chores I hate doing the most.
