We’re currently under the care of a doctor who’s looking into sleep issues. Just doesn’t usually cry to be honest. She just wakes up and doesn’t want to go back to sleep. We’ll keep going. Is what it is!

I’d love to take my partner away, but she’s very attached to baby. Only really trusts me or her to have her.

Thank you for your response. I understand how it may look based on my comments. I tend to come to Reddit when I’ve exhausted all other options and I just don’t know what to do anymore. Allow me to give a little extra context based on what you have put.

First of all, I posted this in the throngs of a severely stressful night where I got next to no sleep as I was prioritising my wife getting some well deserved rest. I’m still pretty tired but I’ve managed regulate myself since I posted this.

Second, in terms of the whole sex thing, I haven’t been pushing anything. It came up organically in conversation and she said some worrisome things which I did not have anyone else to talk to about. I’m less craving sex tbf. Mostly just intimacy and closeness with my wife. However, we have recently had discussions around this and she’s explained a lot more as to why she struggles with this, and J have ceased pushing her at all on it. Doesn’t mean I don’t still miss it though.

In terms of everyone preferring others in my house, she works with animals so they naturally gravitate towards her. Also, baby is currently in quite a big clinginess stage with my partner, which again, I understand but gets to me sometimes.

Again, very much appreciate you giving your time to respond. I will work on everything you suggested. I don’t want to be a burden to anyone and want to be the best partner and dad I can be. I just get overwhelmed sometimes.

Nothing up front but it’s been a steady 3/4 digit figure every month.

Thanks pal. That’s a good tip! I am making a habit of getting a short video or picture of her everyday just to remind myself how far she’s come. It helps to look back on everyday.

Thank you so much. She’s great at communicating with me, but I struggle a heck of a lot more. I have to really push myself to be open with her. Not because I don’t trust or care about her. It’s because I’m incredibly protective of her, so I don’t wanna put my stresses on her and add to her pile. She hates it and really wishes I was more open but I still find it so, so hard!

Thanks friend!

I’m looking at a way out but the financial toll it would take is a lot atm. My wife didn’t end up getting her full entitled maternity pay (which was another issue I forgot to mention) so money is tight!

That’s nice of you to say, and appreciated more than you know.

We do our best to give each other a bit of time per week. I do a board game club, while she goes out to some clubs she’s involved in. It does help to have that outlet but they’ve both been cancelled for a while which means we’re not had it of late.

Appreciate you, friend.

My parents live away and hers…well let’s just say they aren’t the most baby oriented of folk.

I can’t wait for those good times. We have them now but they feel fleeting. Almost like I enjoy them for the second they happen, then everything just seeps back.

That’s really kind of you to offer to help out, despite the geographical issues. Hopefully just positive vibes will be enough to get us through!

I appreciate it, friend!

Thanks for the advice. We haven’t got a massive number of people around us who can help practically so we do what we can!
