    You should hire a cook and teach her to cook according to your tastes. And also keep a full time helper for your baby.

    "My husband prepares me breakfast everyday and give to me..he was very nice and caring..now as baby is small she is not able to get sleep ..and night my husband looks after her. "

    He is doing his part after his daytime job. You are lucky to have a supporting husband. If you check other posts here, you will find complaints on h, not doing anything.

    "he also says that he will cook ..but wat will I answer my parents"
    If he is ready to cook what's the problem, he can cook. Encourage him so that his complaints on food will end. May be your parents and you can take rest. Its quite normal to long for food we are used to. Your h is preparing bf, taking care of baby and supporting you in other ways. He is only asking food of his preference. You can tell him, you understand, thanks for his support and tell him, he can cook his favourites on Saturday or sunday( a few times oer week not all days) , you will supoort him and not easy on working days as you also very busy.

    If not, hire helps for cooking or other duties. Looks like you are exhausted, quite normal postpartum situation. Avoid over thinking, take it easy.

    I dont undestand why you are so sad? Overthinking due to postpartum depression, if any? Takecare

    Now again he strtd with cooking one.
    .how if he is gng on gng gng like this..surely i can't cook bcz i wake up late as v both sleep late due to baby who sleeps at 1 am only..so i wake up dress up and he leaves me to ofce ..i do this only..in this how can he expect his mom's food from my aged mom she is 70 plus now...
    I am a human..and so iam eating watever they cook..bcz am depending on dem ..i can't put a meal plan or rules to cook bcz of der age..cooking itself is plus for me..

    You cannot expect your mom to do all the cooking at her age. It looks like your husband is frustrated in general with staying in your parents home. Can you move to a separate house nearby?
    As for the food, ask him to make a list of all the dishes he wants to eat and engage a cook for the time being.
    His complaining about food seems to be a symptom of some other dissatisfaction. Perhaps seeing your mom is making him miss his mother even more. You can try gently talking to him and ask him what he feels would be a good solution.

    I do not see anything wrong with your Spouse. I see you acting like a victim more than him. he is doing his duty as a spouse taking care of you in some ways, helping his child and working .

    What is wrong in expecting good tasty food if he likes. what is wrong in he seeing his parents also. you should both live alone and rotate your in laws.

    as DDream madam, said you could have Post partum depression . Diagnose that and take help.

    your family is your spouse and child. your parents and his parents are extended family . understand that . from what i see , your dh is supportive. It is big deal for men too to live in in laws house.

    Why don't you shift near by to your parents? Your husband doesn't like mom's cooking, your dad doesn't like husband cooking so why not separate house near by. Hire a cook and ask your husband to teach her. Also in the weekends once you have caught some sleep, cook in bulk as per your husband's taste
    Elderly parents cannot take care of kids independently. Hire a care taker and ask your parents to monitor. If money is not an issue, stay at home maid can be looked at. Initial two years of kids life everyone in the family lose sleep. Most of the problems will be solved if people are well rested.

    Madam..telling is easy dat spouse is supportive means is it great that a man is taking care of baby...how is that it's only a mother shud take care of baby .even they need a baby ...even am a human..i also get frustrated..but daily complaining wats happening at home is too much. Ya staying at my parents house may be it is pricking him..but if i see for his mind ..i think only about my baby now .i dnt want my baby to be jailed in a independent house...i want her to stay with grandparents..siblings..if my hubby changes his attitude everything will settle .his expectations are more .even in this generation..expecting all these ..daily he complains that a my elder sister daughte pulled her hand...they keep small objects near her and forget..it's our duty to remove all that wen v see ..he is doing work from home..and about rotations between inlaws .my mil expired ..so he is missing his mom andher food . She makes tasty food an dhe is habituated...earlier v w er alone .he was happy with my cooking. Weras i cook by watching YouTube .now he wantedly making thses scenes of not liking food and all..
