So yes, I am a woman who is a mother and who is wife too. But if you ask me if I love my kids more or my husband more, I would say I love my husband and kids equally. But as I had this marriage first and then my kids, my marriage is my first priority. My husband is my priority and I am a Mommy who thinks my husband comes first!
You can judge me, judging is easy but hold on a second, read this post till end and trust me you will agree to what I am saying. So, don’t stop, keep reading ?
So, as I just said I prioritize my marriage, I don’t mean I will let my kids starve. I will not let my kids wander in the streets while taking care of my husband. I will not let my kids get sick while covering my husband with a blanket when is not feeling well.
I just mean that I don’t let my husband feel he is not given enough attention like my kids get. I am all day with my kids and baby and my husband isn’t home. But when he comes back home in the evening, I make sure I give all my attention to him. We need this marriage to be good if we want our kids happy. Don’t you agree?
Happy marriage means happy kids. Agreed?
We co-sleep some nights. You know why? I get those extra cuddles from my husband when my baby isnt letting me go. We sleep together. I sleep in the middle so we can still sleep together. That also doesn’t mean I am saying don’t sleep train your baby. Do it. But don’t be so harsh with kids and routines that you forget about your marriage, your husband.
It is not that hard prioritizing your marriage if you try to do it. Kids grow up, all kids grow up believe me. But this time with your husband won’t come back. Don’t let this time weaken your bonding. Kids are a bonding but having kids don’t mean you have to distance yourself from your husband.
I am sure you all love your husbands so why stop taking care of him after having a baby. Give him more reasons to love you, respect you and praise you. Marriage is always the priority and that never means NOT taking care of kids.
