Honestly, nothing gets the Oxytocin flowing more than me seeing him kissing, cuddling and bonding with our son.
In that moment everything as is should be. I feel secure, safe and loved - I feel nurtured.
My hubby makes me a coffee every morning. When I bf DS2 he asks if I want a drink of water. He puts the girls to bed everynight so I can put DS to bed. He supports me by doing little things like cleaning out my car and putting fuel in for me (hard with 5 kids), he sweeps the floor everyday and takes DS2 when I just need a shower. He appreciates my need for time out and will often suggest going out with DS2 (fully bf so we're a package atm) and he will stay home with the big kids. I'm lucky my DHs idea of time out is being home to play video games or watch movies while the kids sleep, I'm social and he's not![]()
Right now I'm not exactly a "new" mum, but when I get home from work and see DH and DD have tidied the play area and he's done the dishes I feel a big rush of love for them both, it's so much easier to relax.
When DD was small DH could easily tell by the tone of my texts how my day had been. He'd come home, make sure she'd been fed then get me into the shower and bed. That always fixed everything, and even now he knows when I'm sleep deprived and just takes over so I can get some extra rest.

"I don't know how you do it"
They're my faves. And new pyjamas. Getting new pyjamas s like an encouragement to spend more time in them. Failing that "you look great in those pyjamas"
