Husband said he's never experienced a household where the woman couldn't watch the baby and cook/clean.

Is this as bad as I think it is? When he came home from work the baby kept roaming into area that I needed to clean. I said I think I can start dinner but can you watch him. He sulked and mumbled some stuff about how we have "that kind of household" and I asked what he meant and he said his mom, all his aunts and his grandma all were able to watch the baby and cook and clean. I thought he was much more progressive than that. It feels icky to be compared to his mother. But she was also 18 when she had him and I was 38 when I had our baby.

I feel like I suddenly do not care about this relationship at all. I would NEVER win. For the record, I did 3 loads of laundry today and washed baby bottles. I realized the house was falling behind so I sleep trained the baby last week. On my own.

I feel like he's lowkey calling me lazy?? I only just got cleared from my anemia last week, 6 months postpartum.

6 month old suddenly whimpering when breastfeeding

When I am breastfeeding him to sleep in the past 3 days he is whimpering "Mmmmm mmmMmm" in various tones with his mouth on my boob. He has a normal temperment during the day. When he puts himseld to sleep in his crib he doesnt make this noise. I've never heard him make this noise before. Is this a sign of illness? He will be 7 months old in a week.

Does anyone have a 5+ year old that does not have a tablet/personal screen device/phone?

I am just curious. When I met my stepkids, at ages 3/4, they each had a kid's tablet, which shocked me. I have a baby and am thinking about the future.

6 month old baby woke up at 4am and after change and feed slept til 8:45am. The huckleberry app is registering this as a nap. He normally wakes up 6:45am.

Normally we do 3 naps and 2 hour wake windows. He will not go down for his first nap, we have been trying since 2 hours after he woke up now its been 3 hours. He is starting to rub his face but won't sleep. Should I drop to 2 naps today? He was very active this morning so he got enough movement. Not sure what to do.
