What I wanted to mention was a word for new fathers actually. When we find strangers or acquaintance in the same boat it okay, but for some unknown reason when it is our wives we tend to get angry! Maybe based on pride, or some unrealistic expectations we have!
My challenge is this, when you are tired because baby has not slept, chances are so is she!
When we stressed out about the little one being sick, so is she!
I could go on with my examples: but my point is, you are in the same boat together, be aware where your feelings are coming from, most likely lack of sleep! Communicate! Don't put her in her own boat, she will just drift away! Grab a paddle (what I mean is word of God) and your lady and lead her to the shore!
One has to paddle while the other cares for the baby, it's all about teamwork and there is another very important member on the team rowing with you. If He wasn't there you would be rowing around in circles.
