[quote=Anonymous]Get really good at saying you're sorry. Man, some of the stuff I pulled back in the early days embarass me today. There are times you might, in a moment of sleep-deprived passion, yell, cry, scream, and the like. Thank goodness my husband was rational (mostly) and good at pushing back (sometimes) and was open to calm, mutual discussion, problem solving, and airing of grievances. He's a good man. And get yourself a village. Friends of yours who are great parents, your own parents (if they were great), can all give good advice and provide a variety of excellent models for how to be in love with each other and your kids, and get through to the other side. But seriously: fighting fair, apologizing, and making up are excellent skills to have when you're parents. Because I'll bet you're not going to agree on everything -- even important things. So there will be conflict.[/quote]
