Usage of "the wife" when talking about a spouse
I see that quite often on Reddit, no idea if it's common anywhere else or not. A man is explaining something that happens in his life and he refers to his spouse as "the wife", for instance "I did that and then the wife said". When I read that, it automatically comes out as really pejorative, am I right or wrong in my assumption ? In French I've never heard it used that way and it would sound awful and demeaning but that kind of expressions and usages are often hard to directly translate.
"What next?" Why don't people use "is" here?

What sentence do you think is written correctly?
1. It is me who am wrong. 2. It is I who am wrong. 3. It is me who is wrong. 4. It is I who is wrong. In my opinion, I think 2, 3 and 4 are all correct, but 2 will be the most formal and archaic, 3 will be the most casual and 4 will be used in a formal context nowadays. It is just my speculation, how about you? Thank you very much!
Do you native English speakers use the word feed to refer to breastfeeding' in everyday speech?
For instance would a mom say "I'm feeding the baby" in place of "I'm breastfeeding" in everyday speech? I know the dictionary meaning of the word 'feed', but I was wondering whether it was used by native English speakers to refer to breastfeeding as well in everyday conversation. Your responses are very much appreciated. Thank you!
