Are you a father of a kid and do you get enough of time to spend with your wife? Here is what you can do to spend quality time with your wife.While your kids are probably the best gift that life has given you as a new dad you might find yourself struggling to find time to fulfil the demands of family life. Often the first thing to get affected is your relationship with your wife as she too will be extremely involved in donning the role of motherhood. Even though you may not realize it always it is extremely important for you to spend good quality time with your wife as this will only strengthen the bond you share as a family unit and couple. Here are some
tips to help bring the spark back in your relationship.
Go for a Date Night
Ask a baby sitter to take over for one night or ask one of your family members to look after your baby for one evening. Go out on a date with your wife just the way you used to do before marriage. Put on your best clothes, buy her flowers and take her to a really nice place for dinner. Even if you do not get the opportunity to spend a full wild party night do make sure that you get an opportunity to spend time together. So, make sure that you plan for a special date night every fortnight with your partner.
Create Some Intimacy Together
If you think that going out on a proper date is not something you can possibly do at this particular point then start off with creating some intimate space at home. Once your little baby or kid has slept off; remind yourself to take advantage of those special few hours. Stubbornly avoid rushing off to finish pending office work or simply watching T.V. Spend the time holding hands, giving each other small hugs and creating a lasting connection with each other. It is not necessary that you will make sexual contact; merely ensuring intimacy will do. Sex will follow later in a more natural way.
Write Little Notes to Each Other
When you become
new parents it will seem like that both of you do not even have time to look at each other properly. It is easy for communication to be lost between the endless sleepless nights and equally harried days. There is no better way to take time to connect to each other than resorting to the pen and paper. While e mails and instant messaging is faster and more convenient letters are more sentimental and will create a stronger emotional connect. Write little notes to your
wife talking about the emotional journey of parenthood that you have shared together and how it has made you appreciate her more. You can be sure that your wife will treasure these notes forever.
Call Her from Office
Remember the time when you were dating or had just got engaged and how frequently you used to talk on the phone. Well, after getting married and specially after having a kid, conversations between couples tend to become more and more matter of fact until the time they hardly communicate at all. Bring back the memories of old times by taking time to call your wife from office each day and then talking to her. Remember to include talking about your feelings and emotions when you talk and watch how good it makes her feel.
Surprise Her
It is no secret that women love to be surprised. Treat your wife to small surprises like a bunch of fresh flowers or her favourite gourmet ordered meal. You can also surprise her with vouchers for couples massage sessions as this is a really good way to build back intimacy into the marriage.
Get creative and think of new ways to spend quality time with your wife and keep her happy. It is very important to
have a strong relationship for married couples with kids in order to raise them in to happy individuals. So, make sure that you try your best as the happy couples raise happy children.
