We're pretty close to 50% 50%. He does a ton of morning stuff with her, and most nights does her bath. I do the prep, laundry, nitty gritty stuff for the most part.
-
Me 80%
DH 20% -
Me: 90%
DH: 10%DH really only cares for the girls when I am at work (I work nights 2 a week). other wise its me. Even if I am just running to the store quick I take a kid or two or three:)

60/40 me/dh
-
Me: 80%
DH: 20% -
Pretty close to 50/50. Will be more like 75/25 when he goes back to working full time.
-
Depends on the day and the task. On average, I'd say 65% me and 35% DH. It doesn't help that LO prefers me for certain things so he can't really help with those or she has a fit.
-
Me: 85%
DH: 15% -
Me: 60%
DH: 40%We are pretty close to 50/50 but he refuses to feed her solids (he can't handle the smell) so that's why I"m taking the extra 10%
-
90/10 me. DH will sometimes get up with him on a weekend morning so I can sleep in, but it's rare. He's starting to get up with him more, though, because they don't see each other much during the week.
-
Me: 90%, but I'm home with him all day.
DH: 10% -
I would say 75/25 since I am on leave so with her all day.
-
95% me. I'm home with her all week and he leaves before she gets up and gets home after she's in bed. On the weekends he takes her for an hour or two on Saturday, but I still do most everything for her.
-
Right now DH is deployed. So its me 100% until Aug 2014 when he will finally be home! Seems FOREVER away!
-
I would say 90% me and 10% DH only because I am home with her all day and we EBF so I have always done every night waking and feeding.
-
I'm a SAHM and EBF so probably 90/10....
@autumn865: same!
-
Monday to Friday it's about 90-10 for me. On the weekends we are more like 60-40 for me.
-
Probably 85/15. I'm the 85%. I'm a SAHM and DH leaves before E gets up and has maybe 2 awake baby hours before bedtime. He plays with him after work but I still do a majority of the childcare things. I take all night wakings and put him down for naps, give him his bath and bottles/solids, etc. DH gives him his last bottle and puts him to bed. On the weekends he definitely helps out a lot with E but its still mostly me.
I'm the reason this Is the case. I have trouble asking for help and I'm also picky about how things are done =\
-
@Running Elley: ditto to being picky and having trouble asking for help!
-
I stay at home so that definitely tips the scales! During the week he does bath & storytime and plays when he gets home. On the weekends it is 50/50 or40/60 me/DH.. sometimes all I end up doing is nursing and handing him back over
-
Me: 90%
DH: 10% -
60/40

ohhhhh...this thread depresses me. Maybe because I have 0 energy at 28 weeks pregnancy and I can't imagine doing 80% of the work on top of working. My husband is naturally more energetic than me so I'm going to hold on to the hope that it'll be 50/50 when I'm back at work after mat leave.
Please tell me you're all on Mat leave or SAHMs?
-
Me: 90%
DH: 10%I'm currently on maternity leave and EBF. It might change when she's more mobile and eating solids.
The first couple of weeks he did all the diaper changing so it was probably 80/20 then.
-
75/25
DH is great and changes him, plays with him, and gives him his bath. But he's EBF and DH works lots of nights so I've been doing all the bedtimes and baths lately. I also usually deal with naps. We're going to sleep train soon so hopefully things will even out.
-
I'd say 50/50 when it comes to diaper changes, feedings, etc. but I do all the sterilizing of bottles and that sort of thing.
-
60 me, 40 him.
Because she's EBF, I do most of the care, but DH is awesome at picking up where he can. He also washes all of my pump parts and bottles when I am getting her ready for bed. -
Me: 90%
Him: 10% -
almost 50/50... maybe 60/40? I work MWF, and he works M-Th. He has all day Friday with J while I work, and we spend the weekends together, but I am with J T-Th. But DH does bedtime routine anyway.
-
I say
Me: 75%
DH: 25%I'm also a SAHM and days DH works it's me 100%. I'm curious what DH would answer so I'm going to ask him if I talk to him today!
-
We both work FT out of the home, I'd say I do about 75% and he does 25%. He gets her dressed and takes her to daycare but I pick her up and do all the evening routine with her. Weekends we mostly split though I do a little more of the hands on work.
-
when we're both home, 60/40. but since DH travels for work 2 nights a week, its probably more like 70/30.
-
Definitely 50/50. He's off MTW, and spends all day with him on those days and helps with bedtime and wakes up with him in the morning. He's so great with our LO.
-
at least 90/10...borderline 95/5 or nearly 100/0. i solo parent all week, if/when DH does make it home DS is already asleep. weekends he watches him when he can so i can get a break if i'm lucky.
plus i work full time.
-
90-10 (I do the 90) but that's bc I'm a sahm. On his days off though he probably does about 60.
-
Mon-Fri 80% me 20% DH as I'm a SAHM
Sat-Sun 50/50DH is very hands on but I always bathe DS as well as make/prep meals. I consider myself very lucky.
-
I'm WOHM but DH works more.
-
70/30. I'm a SAHM, so I obviously do more with her. But, DH is very, very hands on and does a lot with her in the evenings and weekends.
-
I'm glad I'm not alone! I'd say 95% me, 5% DH. It used to be 100% me but he's trying. He now takes her to daycare 2-3 times per week and will watch her for 1-2 hrs on a Sat or Sun.
We both work, but I am EBFing, so I am the only one that gets up with her at night.
