In your opinion did having your first bring you and your husband closer? - for instance my husband and I were together for years and lived together for years before we actually got married, but something about being married just brought us closer . ... curious if you felt this with your first child?
No. I'd say our relationship stayed the same. We are close, but still have disagreements. I'd say we have a healthy relationship, but I don't feel closer to DH just because of DS (or DD coming). I do like watching him be a father though!

I felt it brought us closer together. In the beginning we were both more stressed and could easily get mad at each other. We got through it and I feel like we are stronger because of our child. It felt like we were tested and in the end I think we bot
I would say it brought us closer in some ways and farther apart in other ways. We definitely have a deeper bond in general now that we are parents to Zoe. Sharing love on that deep of a level with a little person has made us feel a lot more connected and

I'm a FTM, but being pregnant and planning for our LO to arrive has already made us closer together. We talk more, dream more, and adore each other in the new roles we are planning to take on. We are more of a team than we have ever been. I can only

No. We lived together before we got married too, and I didn't feel like marriage changed our relationship at all either. If anything, having kids is a huge stress on our relationship.
