Download or read book A Practical Guide for Prospective Parents to Get Prepared for the Birth of the Baby and the New Family written by Andrea Ross and published by Andrea Ross. This book was released on with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parenting is a joint venture that requires communication, understanding, love, and a willingness to compromise. Couples who do not develop these attitudes and skills before the birth of their children cannot believe that they will assimilate them overnight once the first baby is born. Andrea Ross will help you and your spouse figure out how to deal with common problems and how to keep your marriage strong after children arrive. The first few months of marriage are necessary for both of you to adjust. Lifestyles, tastes, quirks, and idiosyncrasies need to be accommodated in order to make living together possible. It's not necessarily an easy process, but at least it's possible to dedicate yourself exclusively to the other person, fine-tuning the relationship. But even if the marriage is already reasonably consolidated, when the first child arrives, it seems that the couple has to start from scratch again. New roles and new priorities are a tough test for the strength of the relationship. Understandably, the attention of both parties turns to the baby, and gradually one no longer pays attention to the other. How can someone so special bring so many challenges to the marital relationship? Andrea Ross knows the difficulties and is willing to help you reinvent your marriage so that all can enjoy the joy of being part of a family.
