[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you and your husband don't do anything together on weekends and you both view spending time with your kid as time spent babysitting that you don't enjoy?

Can you see why this dynamic sucks and is going to make your kid feel like crap once he is old enough to understand what is going on.  How about all three of you do some stuff together as a family?  That should be the focus of your weekend...then when you each need to do something take it as it comes up.  [/quote]

This.

I'd recommend counseling but with a family therapist.

Is the "time off" spent alone or with single friends?

Do you regularly spend time with other families with young kids?

Having a child is a huge adjustment. One that often the mom is the one to mostly make. In your family it sounds like you are both resistant. Why don't you sign up for Saturday am Gymboree or Music Together and go as a family. Find some fun new ways to have fun together and meet some other families too.[/quote]
