my husband thinks that he can take care of our daughter better. he suggested a feeding schedule, which i tried to follow, and then we ended up fighting. in the end, i told him that he will be the one to take care of our daughter if he thinks he can do better. now i can work. but my heart bleeds. i feel sympathy for our daughter because i know that although my husband loves her so much, he does not really know doing things like preparing food, and a host of other stuff for the baby. well, i am so angry now. grrrr...the baby is with him. poor baby. she heard us screaming and she cried.

it's always stressful to look after a little baby. it's natural that tensions rise in matters such as feeding. what's important to put aside all your differences and think of the baby's welfare first. you can try your hubby's method for a while, but if looks like it's not working then you should take charge. after all it's your daughter too.

well, mothers has always this special care to our kids. I hope I can work also but everytime, I would think of leaving my kid with nanny the whole day, my heart really is in pain. Mothers and baby has this special connection that we tend to want to be together always. and I also believe in you that although, fathers loves the kids, they are not well equip to handle every details of the babies' needs and tantrums. Explain to the baby that what he heard is something that married couples argue but you still love each other. babies are smart, they absorb whatever we explain to them. their brains absorbs it unconsciously. Good luck to your new job then
