However  when you settle in your new routine, there are ways that you and your partner can find closeness and intimacy.

Ways to make time  for your partner after childbirth

Go on a real date : Arrange for a baby sitter. You can  get help from family or friends or hire a baby sitter. You can simply go for a walk, movies or dinner.

Be creative :There are so many creative ways to have fun. For examples you can grab lunch once a week or commute to work together. These are ways to help you stay close. You can also send your partner love note to let them know how much you love them.

Play games : Games are a great way to laugh and have fun. You can also do crossword or Sudoku puzzle as you snuggle in the couch.

Make a date night at home : When your baby sleeps  at night, you can use  the opportunity  to snuggle on the couch and watch TV or just relax. Spending a few minutes together will make a huge difference.

Make weekends fun : Pack the baby’s diaper bag or back pack and enjoy weekend fun activities such as going to the mall, parks and outdoors activities. These  are all baby friendly.
