re: Anyone else had this problem after first child born?

---

A.) Help out a bit more around the house. B.) Set up a date night every week or two, complete with baby sitter. The first few might not last that long as she will be a bit wary of being away from her baby. However, as you do more of these, the times will lengthen. When you have her to yourself, make her feel like the most important person in the world. C.) If the above don't work, she may need to see the doc.

These are all good ideas.



OP....didn't read all the responses...but does she ever get time for just herself?


Maybe offer to take the baby and insist she go out for some time to herself. Get one of her friends to take her shopping or to lunch or for mani/pedis together. Let her have some time to feel like a woman again, instead of just a mom.
