Accept some help
You need to trust your friends or family if you can’t get afford a babysitter to go out on a romantic date, or a romantic long drive or a romantic walk to spend some quality time alone far from your nest without any worries, tension, baby wails etc.
Steal some quickie lone moments
Don’t expect too much. Try to be happy while watching movie sitting on couch together, or enjoying your wine together on bed. These little lovely and adorable moments are enough to keep your love alive.
Have a quickie sex
Doesn’t matters if you can’t spare your maximum time for having sex or foreplay. Just find some free time while your baby sleeps and have a quickie sex to stay physically connected.
Try to eat together
Try to eat one meal at least a day together. Because some couples end up eating while feeding their baby or while their baby sleeps. You need to stay connected with your spouse emotionally and mentally.
Go to bed together
Try to slip into the bed together. Don’t make your spouse wait for you on bed and fall asleep while you busy in trying to make your baby sleep. Adjust your timing according to your baby’s nap and go to bed together.
Reduce your baby talks
For new parents a baby is the centre of attraction and they keep talking about their baby all day. So, make out some new topics to talk about, about any love issues, or news on paper, or about friends anything to stay connected and sustain the romance.
Stop nagging
Constant nagging leads to bigger fights. Let your spouse change the diaper according to his/her style even if he/she doesn’t have much idea about it. Learn to trust your spouse.
Find out few minutes thrice a day
10 minutes together works miraculously. While your baby naps or plays with any gadget find out 10 minutes thrice a day to spend some time having your coffee, cuddle with each other, indulge in sweet quickie kisses. This could help you to enhance your marriage even after having baby.
Make a routine
This works effectively. Make your baby sleep everyday at the same time, so that you could adjust according to that and will have some private moments together. Make it a habit for your baby so that you don’t have to pay check on her.
Learn to balance your conversations
As I said, don’t spend all your time talking about your baby. Send your spouse some romantic and sweet texts to let them know that love is still in the air.
Don’t over exhaust yourself
You are a new parent, so it’s natural to be imperfect about child care. Try not to over burden yourself, ask your spouse for some help or your family members for some assistance as they are more experienced than you.
Take out some ‘ME’ time
Besides couple private moments, it is very essential to make out some me time to hang out with friends, go for shopping to give yourself a break. Giving a break more often will help you to stay relaxed and stress free.
