After the birth of our daughter, Tilly, my husband Jake’s lack of support left me struggling alone. He dismissed my requests for help, citing his short paternity leave, while I was exhausted from sleepless nights with the baby.
On Tilly’s one-month birthday, during a family celebration, Jake complained about how tired he was despite not helping. Overwhelmed, I decided to leave and go to my mom’s, but just as I was packing, my in-laws arrived with a surprise: a professional nanny they hired to help with the baby and teach Jake how to care for her. This intervention marked a turning point, leading to a much-needed change in our marriage.
