The struggle is real. My kid is now 4 but my wife and I still pass him back and forth like a hot potato sometimes and we both feel a guilty sense of not getting enough me time, or together time for that matter. We have an older child too and it does get easier as they grow more independent and want their own space. Sounds like you two are figuring it out. I think the key is staying friends through it all and knowing you're in it together. Good luck!
It’s hard! So many relationships to maintain - as a whole family, as a couple, with each kid, not to mention with yourself. It’s been helpful to remember that in this season, some things may fall by the wayside, but things will shift again at some point.
