We brought LO home Monday and have been getting settled in. We shared the news that he was out of NICU with our family and close friends and oh man did the advice start pouring in.

I've just said that we're great, very busy when asked how we are doing, hoping that they'd understand I wasn't up for a long chat. I've had four people tell me to make DH help.

My DH has been pretty phenomenal, for the record. He's fed, diapered, and snuggled LO, he's made bottles, washed bottles, helped me get LO to breast, he's kept up the yard, done laundry and dishes... And he's working 5 hours a day because his boss is a piece of shit.

I'm not quite sure what else he could possibly do to help out and it pisses me off that people assume he's not helping.

I'd love to tell them to keep their stupid comments to themselves, but that makes me sound like a jerk. I've just said that DH has been wonderful and supportive but the assumption that he'd be anything but just irritates me.
