[quote=Anonymous]Children are expensive and time-consuming and they often come with lots of stress and lost sleep for the first year. They also introduce a huge new category where you need to agree (parenting style). The final cherry on top if that they typically come with a huge drop in your sex life, often starting during pregnancy and then during the postpartum period and sometimes even longer if you breastfeed and your drive takes a hit. This means that you have more things to fight about (shared responsibilities, parenting choices and money) and fewer ways to reconnect (sex, time together) and everyone is just more tired and stressed and therefore less patient and considerate. If there are any faults in the marriage, having a child reveals them. Get thee into therapy. Together if possible, alone if you must. This doesn't have to be the end of your marriage, but the longer you stay in this rut, the harder it will be to dig your way out.[/quote]
