Here is how my relationships changed...

DH and I don't have nearly as much alone time as we use to before baby. Our intimate relationship is very different too. But we enjoy the time that we have and we find great joy in spending time with our son. Our baby-free friends are still in our lives, but our time together is not the same.  (jem0622)

I read once that when a woman gets pregnant, she is joining a "club" of some sort. This is so true! I feel an instant bond with other mothers. If I am out with DS and we see another baby, it is so easy to stop and chat. What an amazing club!  (kristin.g)

My DH and I are growing closer now that we have a baby in our family. However, to me, my body has a different meaning that it ever did before. I now feel that I am an extra special person and that I'm blessed to be able to breastfeed our DS and honestly I'm not very interested in sex these days.   (mj68)

My relationship with DH changed only becoming deeper as I watched him with his children. I rarely saw him so gentle and loving as he is when holding his children. It's a side you'll LOVE! My relationship changed with my friends most of all. The ones with kids (especially the same ages as any or all of mine) get a lot of my attention, and my friends with no kids mostly get left by the wayside. I made a lot of new friends with kids at the park, playgroup, doctor's office and at prenatal classes (childbirth and aquafit).   (_karen)

At 1st it was rough for me and my boyfriend because neither of us were getting enough sleep and we were both grouchy but after our daughter started sleeping our relationship went back to normal.  (heidi_hibbit)

DH is good most of the time, you have to be patient with them, because they now have to share their wife or SO with another being, and they do get jealous.  I love my DH so much more because he is willing to help out by changing diapers, feeding, etc.   (ruth_73)

We have a deeper love and appreciation for one another. Our relationship has changed, but was not destroyed, is different, but is stronger. We also simply don't have as much time for one another, because there is another person to be considered, where before there was none. We have new titles now; where before we alone were husband and wife, we have now added Mommy and Daddy.  (jacobsmomee)
