Before I had my daughter, I had all the nursery items stocked, we had taken all the newborn classes at the hospital, we had a freezer full of meals ready to go. I had done everything I could think of to prepare for bringing our baby home, yet I still had this general sense of “we have no idea what we are getting ourselves into”. People always say “It changes EVERYthing” and for us, there was a lot of truth to that statement! After the high of the first few days and sleepless nights, the dishes and the laundry piled up, the fatigue set in and our patience started to shorten.
As a couple, you are probably struggling with feeling like you can’t do anything right in the eyes of your partner and you just want to know that you are good enough. You might feel so buried in resentments and disappointment that the tension in your house is almost tangible and it takes a huge effort to ask even simple questions in a civil tone. Or dealing with extended family, you might be feeling completely disrespected when they act as if they should have full access to your little one whether or not it actually works for you, or even your baby’s new schedule.
I understand these struggles, I have lived them too.
