[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's most people's marriages that suck. Having kids puts an enormous strain on any relationship.[/quote] +1[/quote] This is a really good point. I think people raise a lot of good points here. It's a combination of (and I tried to list them in order): 1. Expectations (keep them low low low!) 2. How helpful is your partner? 3. Does the kid sleep through the night early on? 4. If #3 is no, then how well can you deal with sleep deprivation? Try setting an alarm every two-three hours from 10pm to 6 am, get up for at least fifteen minutes during each alarm wake, and then wake-up for good at 6am. Try it for a week and you will know the answer to this question. 5. Temperament of kid 6. How much do you value personal time? [/quote]
