[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes after the baby it is hard to motivate to have sex with DH. You are tired and there is a lot to do and if your hormones aren't into it, DH's demands can feel like one more chore on the list. Once you are, um, recovered enough, make an effort even when you are not feeling it. You usually get into it once you start and it helps DH feel like he's not just at the bottom of the list after laundry and botlle washing.
Don't over spend. 
If you honestly find that DH is not helping around the house as much as you need him to, don't feel bad about hiring in occasional help to get things knocked back into manageable shape. Even if you are not the type to hire in cleaners or a maid every week, a temporary or sometimes arrangement can really cut down on resentment, not to mention improve household sanitation while you get much needed rest. Same goes for yardwork or babysitters, and it doesn't have to be a long term thing. I tell my husband, I value you, and I am not going to get divorced over a late phone bill or a pile of unfolded towels.
