I have recently had a baby (nearly 4 weeks). He has major heart defects so we were in hospital for the first three weeks while he had open heart surgery and recovered. He’s doing very well but the stress has really came between me and my partner. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on how to keep our relationship together? Or just put the spark back in? I love him more than anything and he’s been amazing through all of this, I really don’t want this to be the end. Thank you.
Be patient and communicate… love one another. Let him know how you feel. He is probably emotionally drained and stressed just like you are.
Be understanding with him and make sure you are communicating. It takes time. My daughter had a brain surgery at 5 months and the stress of that drove me through the walls honestly same with my husband. But talking and making maybe a stay at home movie night or dinner could help
I’m praying for you, only Jesus can heal.
Steak and a bj… men really are simple creatures.
Sit down and talk. Im sure hes scared to. You two need to communicate and snuggle.
Dont forget date night just the 2 of you. Most relationships die from neglet
Tell him to put his big boy pants on and be a flippin MAN!! That is his son as well!! Y’all should really pray together and be grateful that your baby and you are still here ALIVE!! He needs to grow up and get over himself!!! Pray for God’s guidance not to smother him in his sleep bc you have enough on your plate!!! You need to worry about your baby not his baby ass
Mine would rather have bj then talk …
Praying …for you …and your family
Soon these hard time will pass…
talk thats it y’all have to talk
Sick kids will either make or break a relationship. Everyone must do whatever it takes to get baby through this. Now that baby is doing better, make time for you two. Even if its dinner at home with candles and a little human touch. Celebrate that baby made it. You made it. Now enjoy baby, keep date night going weekly or monthly. God has blessed You.
You’ve both been through a very stressful time.Give it more time.praying for all of you
I can relate different situation same kind of stress and strain on me and my husband. Take time for just the 2 of you to reconnect even if it is just dinner and a movie with cuddles at home while baby is asleep. Try talking with your husband and working out a plan together to get back on track as a couple and as new parents. Praying for your baby and your family.
