[quote=Anonymous]For me, the year both my babies were 1 were the hardest on my marriage. Some of that was PPD but also it’s a hard transition for your family. You sound like you’re hyper focused on your baby right now and don’t have emotional energy for your husband. You mention that he sucks at dealing with the baby and sucks with the house. Those are things that can be addressed. He probably needs to become confident in caring for your child. If you are that baby focused, you are probably not letting him find his own way. My recommendation, from experience, is to set a standing activity for yourself whether it be an exercise class on Saturday morning for a couple hours or a standing lunch date with friends. And then leave him with the baby. He needs to learn how to parent. As for the house, either be very specific about what you need in ways that are realistic for your family’s lifestyle or outsource house stuff. I never had a cleaning service until my first daughter was 6 months old and I went back to work. DH and I were arguing often about the house being a wreck, and when it was clean, that came at the expense of spending time together after a long day. Getting cleaners didn’t totally fix the issue but it did help. [/quote]
