[quote=Anonymous]Hr really needs to go work at the library or something.  Better for both of you.  He won't be interrupted, you won't resent his unhelpful presence or have to be quiet and have him commit to a set time of day with baby to give you a break.

Make sure you are getting good medical care to rule out issues.  Go out every day.  Shower before your DH starts working and get dressed and ready for day.  Go out after morning nap - look at animals at the pet store, go to a Gymboree type class, find a stroller striders class, go to the mall, walk outside and narrate the walk giving your DD leaves and pine cones to touch along the way, visit a little pumpkin patch, go ride a baby swing at the park..,

Come home for afternoon nap - will she nap if you hold her? My two kids only took long naps while held or in a swing until they were 9 months old.  I would rock in the glider while they fell asleep and then nap myself.

After nap, tummy time, play with toys, dance to kid music, have a bath, go for a stroller walk.

Then maybe DH comes home and takes over for an hour while you relax.  Then baby to bed.[/quote]
