The Post-Baby Conversation: What new parents need to say to each other

The post- baby conversation is a first: a relationship book for new parents. It is not a book about babies and it’s not about how to be a parent. It’s about how to be a happy couple after the arrival of children. Most couples experience relationship issues with the arrival of a new baby. A conversation about how responsibilities and the workload of a new baby will be shared, what will happen on weekends and whose job it is to cook and clean can be a source of great tension. When a modern couple become parents, both men and women develop expectations of what their partner should do and provide, often based on outdated traditional stereotypes; and many couples co-exist unhappily for years.
