I am tired of giving him instruction on how to do everything with our child and with his lack of effort around the house. I have talked to him many times about these things, and they will change for a little bit, then go right back to where they were.

In regards to my experience, this was the source of my problem right here and mine never got better. He was content because he knew that once everything returned to 'normal' he could continue not pulling his weight around the house. And the ongoing resentment, even when I wasn't feeling it, poisoned everything in the relationship. If you are feeling unfairly burdened in the partnership, then it really needs to be addressed...he needs to realize that the stakes have changed. Marriage is an entirely new game when a child enters the picture - there are expectations, things have to get done, you have to sacrifice a lot, I'm sure you know this. Some people have trouble accepting it.
