[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you the one with the tear and the bad sleeping 3 month old?  The one who likes a clean house?

I don't know why your thread disappeared but you got some good advice.  However, the advice to sleep more, figure out/cut back breastfeeding, and take care of yourself IS marriage advice.  Burning the candle at both ends trying to be super wife is going to backfire.  Getting your physical health to a good place will be the best thing you can do for your marriage and that means more sleep.  You should send your DH out with the baby every Saturday morning first thing, so you can sleep.[/quote]

OP here. I’m the first thread with the baby who is a little over 8 weeks old. We had lots of weight gain and breastfeeding issues. I think my thread might have been deleted because someone else wrote a smiling ad a couple of days after mine. [/quote]

Oh okay.  Well, I did not read your original thread, but I would suggest 1) cut yourself some slack, feeding issues are really hard.  2) Focus on getting more sleep for yourself and you will be less irritable and have more time and energy for your husband.  When my kids were little, we took turns taking them for a walk first thing in the morning while the other parent slept in. 3) sometimes in parenting you just have to ride out a rough patch.  At only 8 weeks your body is still recovering.  Soon your baby will sleep more and be more predictable.  It will work itself out in time.  Stop putting pressure on yourself to have everything in a good place already.[/quote]
