Finding Time for Housework!

I have the worst time finding time to do housework! My husband gets furious with me for not having everything kept neat and I hate that. I love having a clean house but my 11wk old daughter is a full time job! She acts like she has to be held all the time! I put her down but I can't listen to her scream for more than 10 or 15 minutes at a time.

He gets angry because he comes home and cares for her and I try to com to my office to work at my job that will be earning money as soon as I get my writing numbers. I have to learn about what i'm selling or I can't sell it! I try to get things cleaned up but then I have to cook and he doesn't want to help clean up after dinner. I'm TIRED! I don't sleep well at night because of the baby, and after cooking, trying to deal with a cranky baby and whatnot I'm exhausted and he seems to think that him coming home to care for her for 2 hours is going to make my life easier!
:( :( :( I just want to cry!

Hi Gidget! I know how you feel...high need babies can be frustrating and difficult! Carter may seem like an angel, but that is touch and go and when he was young he hated to be on his own (which he considered to be any time he wasn't in my arms). I will be praying for you and your family!

Have you tried a wrap sling for her? I have a Moby wrap and a Sleep Wrap that I use with Carter on needy days and it helps me get stuff done and keeps him happy.

If you ever need to talk to someone I am here :). I know we don't know each other very well, but I am where you are and I know it can be frustrating.
