[quote=Anonymous]Don't make any big decisions in the first year. Period. I think the first step should be you talking to him, firmly and in a calm setting, then doing therapy alone to figure out what you can do to address the issue. You can't control him, only yourself. My spouse was a billion times more considerate than this but it did feel like a zero-sum game when we had a baby of "who gets to have free time." But that's not it, OP. Play it smart and you can BOTH have free time, friends and hobbies, and you can have even more of it when baby is older. If you don't work, find a job. Have an identity that isn't Mom. Join a group or meet up with friends. Find an excellent babysitter -- I found a couple on care.com (if your baby is in daycare, daycare teachers often moonlight as sitters on the side).[/quote]
