I don't know how to find time for my husband, I am taking care of a two year old, working, and doing college... My two year old is always there and we never have any alone time together... this is really starting to upest me and I think its effecting our marriage. :confused:

You get a sitter every now and then and go out, time together normally just does not happen but has to be planned.

I would get a babysitter if I could afford one, we are on a very tight budget because I am going to college and he is working a part time job because that's all he can find in this little town. Plus to be honest I don't want to leave him with a babysitter, because this world isn't safe anymore for kids. I don't want to regret leaving him with a babysitter for a night out with my husband, if that means he will be neglected or hurt.

This is how me and my husband were, we have 2 teenage boys.They are in everything we do, they are always there (it is like they are 4 years old) but we made up a date night. Where no matter what we went out and just had "our" time. We told the boys and they understood. Just get a family member or a baby sitter one night a week (doesn't even have to be on Friday or Saturday night) and go out. Have a great night and it will help! It helped our marriage out greatly!!

Hope this works for you!

I would try to get a sitter for a few hours. If you cannot afford one right now, then maybe rent a good movie that you BOTH have been wanting to watch, put the little one to bed, make a bowl of popcorn, and enjoy the movie. Time spent with your spouse doesn't have to involve a lot of money, just being able to spend that "quality time" together makes a world of difference. This may sound weird, but I am in a newer marriage, and with me came my daughter who is now 11 years old. My daughter, my hubby and I spend quality family time together watching movies and eating popcorn. That too is when we "air" out any indifferences (good or bad) we might have. Keep an open line of communication with your hubby.

Do your parents live close to you?if yes,maybe sometimes you can ask them to take care of your baby for a few hours,or if your best friends are free and you trust them, you can ask them for a help too!sure that person must love child and be with patience! That is important! It is also important that be open to your hubby,talk with him,try to find a way out with him! I think that will be good for your marriage as well! Good luck to you and your baby!
