BABYPROOFING YOUR MARRIAGE is for every father who has wondered whether his sex life is officially over, and for every mother who has secretly wished it was. It’s for every man who has wanted to shout from the rooftops, “I’m working so hard, but no matter what I do, it is never enough for my wife!”  It’s for every working mother who has ever said to herself, “I expected to have it all, but I damn sure didn’t expect to be doing it all,” and for every stay-at-home mother who now feels like the lesser partner in a former marriage of equals. It’s for anyone who has thought, “If I have to spend one more weekend with my in-laws, I’m seriously going to hurt somebody,” because their spouse doesn’t know how (or doesn’t want) to set appropriate boundaries with a grandparent who has stepped too far over the line.     

Most importantly, Cockrell, O’Neill, and Stone offer hundreds of specific – and personally tested – methods couples can use to reignite a marriage on post-baby Auto-Pilot.  From a Training Weekend for the husband who “just doesn’t get it” or views doing his fair share of the work as a favor to his wife; to a Five Minute Fix that quickly recalibrates any sexual disequilibrium; to using Get out of Jail Free Cards to allow each other some essential off-leash time (because, really, you both don’t need to share in the joys of cooking chicken nuggets every night), BABYPROOFING YOUR MARRIAGE  is brimming with common sense and easy-to-implement advice that the authors (and their husbands) learned the hard way. 

This book resounds with humor, honesty, a balanced perspective, and down-to-earth advice.  With BABYPROOFING YOUR MARRIAGE, couples just might find that despite their disagreements about who’s getting up in the middle of the night (otherwise known as Midnight Chicken), or who’s doing (or not doing) what to whom in the bedroom, or where to spend Christmas this year, it is indeed possible to create the kind of happy family life they want for themselves and their kids.
