That might be enough to create that sense of intimacy again.

Yeah, that's where we get resentment building up.

you know, and blame.

And I think it's really important that this doesn't become a tit for tat.

Like, there's a lot of bargaining that happens.

Like, I had the baby last night.

You haven't had him in two nights, whatever it is, you know.

And it kind of starts to build up.

Like, you keep this kind of scorebook nearly of who's doing more.

And that just inevitably leads to emotional resentment and blame.

And

Like, if we hold on to that, OK, it might feel nice in the moment, having a go at your partner, putting the blame on somebody else.

Do you know, yeah, exactly.

Yeah, so I'm running an online webinar.

This is a free webinar for anybody who's expecting a baby or in the postpartum period, just around the changes that happen in this time and particularly around...

the impact of any kind of perinatal mood and anxiety disorder or birth trauma.

That's going to be on the 6th of May.

That's Maternal Mental Health Day.

And it's an evening session.

And you can find out more about that on my website, ancribyog.com is my email address and ancribyogpsychotherapy.ie is my website.
