[quote=Anonymous]Who in their right mind thinks about divorce with a 5-week-old?  You need each other right now.  You need to be focusing on the baby and not threatening divorce over whether or not he did the dishes.  You're probably sleep-deprived and hormonal as well, and who knows maybe even a little post-partum, so this is not the time to even bring up the D-word.

Almost everyone fights about this stuff.  Having a baby is like becoming a coworker instead of a partner, but none of us chose our partners based on a job interview.  So now you need to figure out how to be coworkers, and it's not always going to be about what you want.  These years are tough, and nothing is going to make them easier.  Until about 6 months, you'll be battling sleep deprivation and to be honest, neither one of you will be entirely able to think rationally.  So eliminate the D-word from your vocabulary for at least that long.  I mean really, why take marriage vows if you're going to bolt the first time one of you feels they are doing too much around the house.  That's normal.  Chill and maybe talk to someone instead of taking this out on your relationship.  [/quote]
