Publisher's summary

Less sleep, stressful life changes, and even postpartum depression are things most new parents know are possible when baby comes home.

Sudden relationship and personal challenges might come as a big surprise though! Navigating life as a family can be harder than expected. Between unwanted parenting advice and no time for self-care, good communication with your partner can come to a standstill. Your once-steady partner suddenly feels like part of the problem.

Licensed marriage and family therapist Catherine O’Brien and her husband lay out the communication skills and relationship strategies that new moms and dads need during baby’s first year and beyond. Navigate through difficult circumstances like overcoming a hard pregnancy with step-by-step help. With this uplifting guide of advice, you’ll transform into a couple who works together to be the best caregivers for your baby.

Discover secrets to success, including:

  • Exactly what to say when you just want some time to yourself, because self-care is a must for a caregiver.
  • How to bring the passion and sex (fireworks included!) back into your relationship after baby comes.
  • Master tips to create an all-encompassing schedule for you, newborn care, and dating—yes, dates!
  • How to stop keeping score and work on your new normal together.
  • Three questions to ask yourself and your partner daily to ensure you’re on the same team and bonding with your child.

Even couples who have the “best marriage ever” can’t come home from the hospital and expect to become perfect parents. You need training. You need discipline. And you need a guide on how to keep building happy, healthy relationships full of love and respect.

Effective communication, self-care, and Happy with Baby. When partners become parents, these are the tools they’ll need.
