Kelli, i can understand your situation, it does happen when a new member arrives in the family and it is difficult for parents to adjust. It is also possible that he requires more of your attention and you are 24x7 busy with the baby...men are like that..though they may not say but they need the attention. I have been reading your posts and have realized that Caitlin has been having sleep issues too. Though i am yet to have my baby, hope you dont mind a few words from me. It might help. It will be better if you put Caitlin on a structured routine so that you get time for yourself too when she sleeps. Time for yourself is very important...she also needs a calm environment at this stage, so be careful that there is not much of noise and stimulus for her. Once the baby is under your control then other things will soon fall into place. You require a baby sitter full time for some days if possible. And when Caitlin's routine falls into place you can manage it on your own. Good luck and keep us posted. It is very easy to get married but difficult to stay married. Both partners have to work on it.
