[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, quick follow-up.  All of these responses have been really thought provoking and helpful.  I started last week by asking for a date night and lining up child care.  DH also actually himself brought up the idea of weeding together once the baby was asleep one night.  That didn't work out so well - he still doesn't do well with doing things together-together, as in both participating in the same task and interacting during it.  But date night was really successful...not just the date itself (which wasn't particularly any thing special, just dinner, but nice) but the anticipation and intentionality of it all was good for us.  And we had sex!  Sex.  Good stuff.  And a pretty good week.  And I've been doing a bit more around the house, so that helps.

I like the idea of reading a book together and ultimately do very much want to do therapy, but I think for now I'm doing to try to build on this small success and do date night again next weekend.  Keep building the small victories of friendship time together.  And hopefully more sex, too.

Really appreciate everyone's kind and helpful perspectives and advice![/quote]

Great news!  Sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders.  Take it a day at a time for as long as you can. [/quote]
