Answer 1

Wow, crazy house huh? A dog, your best friend's daughter, and a newborn? Crazy is as crazy does.

Answer 2

WOW.....I feel for you and the baby!!!! What the heck is wrong with your wife??? Maybe she is going through some type of postpartum depression or something. I dont know i have four children and we once had a cat , a beautiful full blooded persian, but once we bought the baby home from the hospital the cat did not take to the baby to well so i gave her to a friend of mine. The cat actually hissed at my baby girl and i was like oh no cat you gotta go. It really hurt my heart because my cat was with my 2 years before i had my baby , but my baby girl was my LIFE, My cat was given to a very close friend of mine, but they moved away and i havent seen it in a long time. Now my daughter is ten and for some reason,never even knowing what happened with the cat, she is very afraid of cats...isnt that crazy!! Try to sit down with you wife and tell her how you feel about this and what you feel the outcome may be.......then maybe she will WAKE up and realize , hey ,my husband is serious about this!!! You never know ,talking sometimes does alot of good, she may end up, i hope so for you anyway, to be one of the best mothers a child could ask for ....Good luck to you hun and i hope it all works out for the best....A child is way more important than the family pet!1 If she does not listen to you than you need to go forth with what is best for the baby.. You sound like a wonderful father and from the sounds of it i dont think that even if you do take the baby that you would ever stop her from seeing the child , just go with your heart!!!

Answer 3

First you need to address the situation with your wife. It seems as though the timing of the dog may not have been right. Dogs are like a child, the need the attention and food and other needs. Or, however, your wife could be hiding behind the dog if some reason she did not want the baby. The best advice for you is talk to your wife!! Explain your concern. Don't give up yet.

Answer 4

This is a serious situation and I'm glad you asked it.It sounds as if your wife has post-partum depression - a serious condition which affects 1 out of every 8 new mothers. It sounds as if your wife feels more in control taking care of the dog than she does the new baby. Mothers who experience postpartum depression often are too ashamed to admit it because we all expect new parents to be extremely excited about the new baby. Talk to your wife. Ask her how she is feeling about the new baby. Be extremely supportive. Ask her if there is anything extra you can do to help her around the house and in other areas. If your wife doesn't want to talk about how she's feeling with you, you may want to call up her doctor and suggest that the next time she's in at the office, that the doctor talks about it with her. Good luck and I'm wishing you and your wife the best.

Answer 5

may be she is obsessed with the new dog.it might last for sometime(a month or so) and then she might get bored of taking care of the dog(just give her some time).if she doesn't realize what her daughter is missing-sit down with her and talk about how u both feel about the situation.to talk openly is the best way to see from others point of view.good luck!

Answer 6

I would talk to her about it... bring it to her attention and ask her side of the story and reasons why she would be not caring for your daughter...

maybe she just hasnt spent enough time bonding with the baby so she doesnt feel attached to it.. so maybe if she did she would show the baby more love and support

Answer 7

I say opt for it. carry out somewhat learn in the previous you go and be sure the position you're going does good artwork, it really is the biggest ingredient. so a techniques as understanding, you may basically pick to attend 2 weeks till the tat heals. it truly is no longer good to sweat or get it extremely moist even as it truly is healing. yet you may not could be nerve-racking about it stretching.

Answer 8

It may be a sign of postpartum depression. You may want to consult your baby doctor about this. I would say don't let your wife know that your asking the doctor until you hear what he has to say. There are a lot of woman that go through that and that's what it sounds like to me but like I said talk to you doctor about it that's what they are there for. Good luck with everything

Answer 9

Answer 10

make an appointment with a mental health agency. This behavior is not normal It may be some type of post par-tom depression. It could be a very problem since babies need to bond with their mothers and fathers alike.
