[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I have an agreement that we NEVER talk negatively about each other to other people. It never solves anything and just causes more problems. Regardless of whether or not it's true, airing dirty laundry is not good for a marriage. Would he be open to a discussion on keeping these things to yourselves?

As far as the newborn/work around the house- we had the same problem. DH was unhappy I wasn't getting more done; until he watched DC for a day and realized how hard it is. Our baby never napped. Ever. She just wanted constant food and entertainment. At this point it's just about survival and enjoying the happy moments when they come. You're not going to look back on this time 30 years from now and be proud of how clean you kept the house.

Could you possibly get a day off? Stock up on breast milk or formula and leave the baby with your husband for a few hours? Getting away for awhile did wonders for me.

Do what you can and take it easy on yourself. Extra stress can put you at an increased risk of PPD. Also, I know the above poster meant well, but please don't nap with your newborn, that can be extremely dangerous. [/quote]
