romance

April 27, 2007 2:10am CST
I have a child 9 month old and I hardly get time for some little romance with my husbend. Very often I feel tired, I would like to make a good sleep, but I haven't the time 'cause I am full employed. Do you think this way I am loosing my husbend interest?

Talk to your husband about your feelings, he might be feeling left out and doesn't understand you are tired and have a lot on your plate. It will get easier when your child gets older. Try to make some time for him, even a few extra minutes a day helps.

If you have true love then you will never lose your husband's interest. I'm sure he realizes that with the baby and working full time and all that it is very hard for you and that you get very tired. What you need to do is try to set up a date with your husband. Perhaps send the baby to stay with Grandma and Grandpa for the weekend and have some one on one time with your husband. You don't even have to go anywhere.

I do understand your situation. Is it possible for you to ask someone else to take care of your baby when you go to work. After work, you and your husband can look after baby together. Family time is important. Let him help you to take care of baby, your relationship will get closer.

Wow, I have been there. One thing my husband and I do sometimes is take a day off together (or even just a half day). Our son would still go to daycare, we would go to lunch and a movie and then pick our son up early for some family time. You need to make time for your marriage. I know it is difficult. As I said, I have been there. I don't think you are loosing the interest of your husband, I think he may get tired of asking for your time. When my husband and I sat down to discuss our relationship, that is what he told me. I had to make time for him, and I am glad I did. Hope that helps.

I don't know how you manage a 9 month old & a full time job! I have an almost 11 month old & have vowed to be a stay at home mum so i can spend all my time with her. Do you need to work full time or could you manage part time? What do you spend your weekends doing? Maybe a relative or something could take your baby for the weekend so you & your husband can have some together time - try doing it once a month or so, that could help to keep the romance there. My partner works some weird hours & we don't get a lot of time together either but we make time for us! I have a thing about not letting my daughter stay with anyone coz everyone who would take her, live too far away & i just don't feel comfortable - hopefully you have someone who lives closer!

Hey rainbow, i understand your work and your baby are takin up all of your time, bu what about the weekends? My advice is u let somebody take of your baby for a day in the weekend and propose to your husband to go for a romantic picnick just the two of you in a park on a sunny afternoon. Good Luck Mike
