That's awesome. Something that popped into my head just now for the first time: do you ever worry you'll raise like, a murderer or something? Is that even something that's on a parent's radar? It's ridiculous to think about but like damn it's possible.

Not a murderer lol but I do think about how to make sure she doesnt grow up to be too spoiled or entitled. Both my husband and I grew up from very humble means while she will have a lot more than we ever did. I want to be sure she will appreciate what she has.

I think most people don't have access to good family leave to be able to adjust

Oh definitely. I grateful to have 6 months off and my husband works from home. But I also have friends in Canada who had a year off work and still told me how difficult to expect it all to be.

lmao no. Stay in the game longer then talk

Like I said, Im no expert. But everyone told me the first few weeks to 3 months were the absolute hardest and it just hasnt been that bad for us. Just wanted to share a little positivity because I feel its like when people review a business, you only hear about the complaints.

I feel like this is what makes the difference. Of course if the two parents try to follow the same sleep schedule, the baby will interrupt and cause tension/drama/stress. But if you decide "Alright, you need to sleep during these 8 hours, I'll sleep during these other 8, so we don't have to decide who gets up to help the baby" it goes so much smoother.

Yeah that has been huge for us. My husband sleeps in the guest bedroom too so we dont wake each other.
