Co-parenting/I feel too controlling

First of all, this is your first child together and as a couple things can be better uneven/stressful at first. It takes a little to adjust to a new baby. When my husband and my son arrived we seemed to fight alot more in the first month or so than in our previous marriage without kids. It was a big adjustment as we both realized we had, at times, conflicting parenting ideas.

Remember you guys are a team. You need to work together. Be thankful you have a man that is wanting to be active in your family's life. Maybe sit down and talk about who does what and how. If you have something particular that is very important to you- like feeding- let him know. Maybe you could shut yourself in a room, just your baby and you...it could be some good bonding time without your boyfriend. Also understand that he is learning too and wants to be involved. Don't be too selfish. You created this life together and he should have a say in how things happen too.

Remember that the first month or two is an adjustment for EVERYONE! :)
