[quote=Anonymous]Number 1 was so hard for us. It was a huge adjustment. We had literally never argued before in 5 years of marriage and 2 years of dating, and we argued all the time after baby. It was tough. And he was also a very difficult baby (much better now as a 5 year old). So number 2, in comparison, was much easier even though she was also not an easy baby. But we knew what we were doing as parents, we weren't afraid we were going to break her, we knew that the awful sleep issues would eventually end (sadly much later than with our first kid!), etc. So there was no negative impact on our marriage. In fact, if anything it was a positive, because we'd gone through secondary infertility and I had a rough pregnancy so once she was here, that huge source of stress was lifted.[/quote]
