[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. We have made it a priority to put our marriage first. We have a 4-month-old baby and are going to trying for a second child soon by the first year. We don't neglect him, but we have done things to benefit our marriage - early bedtime, a schedule, sleeping in his own crib, etc. We are all to spend 1-2 hours together most nights and we do a date night every week. We only go probably 2-3 times a month, but we do a date night in with some take out, wine, and a movie. We have sex most nights or every other day. If sex isn't on the table, I almost always give him oral sex. I think it helps that he is a 50/50 partner in parenting and running the household. [/quote] You are the unicorn Mommy. [/quote] I’m another mom who parents like this. Child in the nursery from a young age (8 weeks?), quit breastfeeding somewhat early, never miss baby’s nap, sleep trained, weekly date night. I make sure to leave the house enough that it forces him to do 50/50. [/quote] I'm another. And my twins are 6. They slept in their cribs in their room at 4 weeks and they slept from 7-7 at 12 weeks. Not by magic, but by some work (although no crying it out). My husband and I model a healthy relationship because kids see and hear everything. My friends who are in bad relationships are in denial, I think. You should hear the things their kids say when they're out of their parents' earshot.[/quote]
