Preparing Your Relationship for Parenthood

Before becoming parents, couples should ensure their relationship is in a strong place by defining shared values, discussing finances, and resolving significant conflicts. It is crucial to find compromise and seek couples therapy if needed. Enjoying baby-free time together, going for a babymoon, and creating a game plan for the division of household labor are essential in preparing for parenthood. Flexibility, preparedness, and taking inventory of responsibilities are key to maintaining a strong relationship during the transition to becoming parents.
