I have gotten used to sleeping in 2 hour segments instead of full on 8 to 9 hours of sleep. I nap when he naps and when we both are up, we do things together. Having a baby changes the way you live, but it doesn't change what you like to do for fun...you just have to be more creative in still being able to do the fun things that you liked to do before kids. My mother offered to babysit while we go to Vegas and we have a cousin and my husband's coworkers wife offered to babysit anytime we need one.
A baby will let you know what he/she needs and that he/she needs it now...you won't have time to think about what has changed because your focus will be on keeping the baby's belly full and butt clean.
