Love story of a baby’s parents
Parenting is a tough job. It not only drains you physically, but also puts your relationship with your partner to a test. When you are busy handling bawls, throw-ups and dirty diapers, you are left with little patience to pick up the wet towel your darling husband left on the bed as usual. It is tough on the new fathers too. They find it difficult to handle a hormonal, tired and frustrated wife and a frighteningly tiny baby who cries for unknown reasons. This is when your love is tested. My darling daughter, baby S, as I usually refer her as, was an insomniac. For the initial six months, she…
