You had a baby… and suddenly everything in your relationship feels harder. Here’s what’s really going on.

In this episode of Let’s Thrive Postpartum, therapist and founder of Balance With Brittany, Brittany Wilson, LPC, joins Kelly Siebold to unpack the five most common (and least talked about) relationship struggles after baby—and how to navigate them without losing yourself or your connection.

Whether you're quietly building resentment, fighting about sleep, or feeling like intimacy has disappeared, this episode offers real validation and practical tools you can use right now.

You’ll hear:

• The root cause behind most partner resentment (and how to fix it)
• How to communicate when everything feels fragile
• What to do when intimacy feels out of reach
• Why your roles feel so unbalanced and how to reset
• How to talk about money without it turning into a fight

If things feel heavier in your relationship since baby arrived, you’re not broken, and you’re not alone. This episode will help you feel seen and supported, with gentle strategies to reconnect as a team.
