My partner an I have a baby together. We were happy and free, before, now all we do is speak badly to each other and  have no time for each other. We just argue most of the time.

---------------------------Miss Emily's advice---------------------

 

This is not uncommon when a baby comes into the household. New parents get frustrated, easily, from lack of sleep, and the time consuming nature of having a baby. But you should sit down with him and have a heart-to-heart talk with the goal to problem solve. Right now, your baby comes first, and he (or she) does not deserve to hear snipping, and discord in the background when he did not ask to be born. As parents, you should now become responsible adults. Take shifts where you can nap, and do not hesitate to get a qualified sitter to let you and your partner have some quality time together outside the home. If the snipping persists, you and he aren't setting your priorities straight. Maturity tells you to weather this without thinking that your free, and happy lifestyle, before the baby, has now been curtailed. You don't live under a rock, and both of you had to know that your lives would be altered to accommodate a new family member.
