my hubby helped out until I was back on my feet which was great there are still things I can`t do like make the bed, washing, and vacuuming which he does. Things like picking up dishes that are his, stuff like that I do for him but I refuse to put away washing or pick it up after him and pick up his work stuff or do any paper work in our house. I also don`t feed our dog, walk the dog, mow the lawn or take out the rubbish. So for us it works both ways 50/50. (somethings when we get sick of doing the same things we change)

I pick up continuously after my hubby, I often call him my 4th child. But I am a SAHM and he does work 6days a week 12hr shifts so that I can be a SAHM so I can`t complain too much. Also after 8yrs together I knew what he was like when we met, and trying to teach that old dog new tricks is not too easy.

I agree with Kater-- He is out breaking his back for our family. The Least I can do is make sur that the house is clean. DOn`t get me wrong, he will and DOES things around the house. He will do the dishes, he will do a load of clothes (I never ask him) He is great. (now if I could get him to change dirty diapers without asking!!) lol :o)

He does it all on his own but it wasn`t always that way. Instead of nagging, to make a point I only picked up after myself and did MY dishes and laundry. When he got the idea that if he wanted clean underwear he`d have to do laundry, I never had a problem again. We since, are a team doing all of the chores as needed without either of us having more to do then the other.

I`m SOO obsessed with having the house clean and perfect so I do much of the cleaning up, however he cleans the carpets and will help me do the more intense cleaning of bathrooms and dusting. I do feel like I am constantly picking up though but it`s my own fault for an empty cup on the counter annoying me!! I`m crazy, I thought the craziness would end after I had the baby but he`s almost 11 weeks and I`m still crazy about having the house perfect!

I`m not a mom yet, but I generally do the housework. It makes sense, though, because my husband works full time, and I work EXTREMELY part time. I am currently basically a housewife, so I should contribute to our household in SOME way, I figure. :)

Rarely have to nag ~ he does it ~ after almost 15 years of marriage and 3 kids he knows that being a SAHM is a job too, just like his and being a parent is also 50/50. And how is it fair I have to `work` 24/7 and he wokrs only 40 hours. We both have out momments but for the most part we both do things together ~ we both do laundry, washdishes, vaccuum cook etc etc. There was a time it wasnt that way but it was ruining our marriage so things changed.
