Babyproof Your Marriage- Julia Kantor, LMFT The key to staying connected with your partner after having a baby is to first recognize how much is at stake for your baby’s development. You are your child’s first model of love and relationship, influencing their future choices. These suggestions are good for you AND the baby! =) – Carve out at least 15 minutes daily to just talk, and be curious about each other’s experience – Prioritize regular date nights to connect outside of your roles as mom and dad – Make room for cuddling and show affection in hellos and goodbyes, research indicates this helps couples maintain connection.
