[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are stressed, hormonal and don't have the benefit of years and years of experience and perspective to decide what is important and what is just "noise". As a mom of two now teens, I can tell you, that dad doing S2S is part of the "noise". So is the nursery, baby book, registry, and whatever else you are upset about right now. In the grand scheme of things, it does not matter.

I agree with a PP that having a conversation with your DH about how you are hoping that he will be a more active participant in your parenting journey going forward is a good idea, but as far as what is a realistic expectation for things that would truly require his participation vs. what is "noise", you may want to find a couple of good friends with some experience and perspective, and run these by them if you are uncertain. It is really hard to see the forest for the trees when you are so deep in the trenches, hormonal, sleep deprived, etc.

Good luck and try to relax and enjoy your baby! Things will fall into place eventually, and you guys will get into a parenting groove pretty naturally if you just give it some time and patience. [/quote]
