What are some ways to prepare your relationship for the arrival of a child?

Cupid’s Advice:

Deciding you want to have a baby is only the first step of a long journey. Getting ready for the arrival of new baby can be stressful and challenging, but it can also be a lot of fun. Cupid has some advice on ways to prepare your relationship for the arrival of a child:

1. Discuss the raising of your child: Once you start this conversation know that there will be some disagreements. No couple agrees on everything all the time. Having a child can be stressful. Once you have a child things will change, but make it easier by talking about how you plan to raise the child beforehand and set up all necessary ground rules in terms of your parenting standards. Couples who communicate have an easier time trusting their partner and have a better chance at keeping their bond strong.

2. Be prepared to compromise: You both probably have different opinions on how to raise your child, but you have to be willing to sacrifice and compromise to make things work. You will also have to compromise in terms of work and other daily activities. Plan before the arrival of your child what you’re going to do about work, child doctor appointments, baby errands etc. Keep what is best for the child in mind while you do your decision making.

3. Remember you are in this together: Realizing you are not alone is important. If you are both there for each other and support one another it will benefit your relationship. Your relationship will never be the same after you have kids, but keep in mind you aren’t the only couple who have gone through hard times. However, if you stick together you can overcome any challenges that comes your way and most important of all remember that you love one another.
