Yeah our 1 year old is now sleeping through the night. We will have random wake-ups from the 3-year-old, the baby, or the dog. Seems that most nights something will break our sleep at least once, but just very quickly and we all go back to bed. But whenever that happens we all kind of wake up, so it's not something she solely has to deal with. I will say that she was amazing dealing with all of the nighttime wake-ups the last year, which is wy I am only starting to get resentful now. I just assumed as the baby got older she would become more grateful. That has not been the case.

Maybe a spa trip, or a weekend away wouldn't hurt. Maybe a romantic getaway for you two?

Remember, you're partners first, then parents, though infants can switch that a little. Show her how much you still love her.

Yw. I'm not trying to diminish either role, but sometimes you need to recharge the love meter, and remind yourself why you're together.
