I'm glad to hear your getting better and you had some very good things to say.

I can remember when I had my first child and feeling so angry and resentful at my husband because he mysteriously disappeared frequently. This led to many, many terrible arguments.
Looking back, I spent more time wondering where my husband was then on taking care of myself or even thinking of myself and my well-being.
If I had an opportunity to do it all over again, I would have stopped my continual nagging and criticism of all the things my husband was not doing or in my opinion, doing incorrectly. Instead, I wish I had gotten busy and found a group of other new moms so that I had an outlet and met some new friends.
Once you accept that you have absolutely no power over anyone but yourself and you take action towards self-care, I can absolutely guarantee that you will feel immensely better about yourself.
30 day guarantee: Make your home a pleasant place without arguing or criticizing and, get outside with your new baby everyday, and research a new mom's group in your area. Get your hair done, nails/pedicare. Wear clothing that you feel is attractive. If you feel like blowing up, simply don't. Go out for a walk or a ride in the car. No one can make up happy - it's your challenge to find a life worth liviing.
You can do it! Laurie
