I totally relate to your post. I think the most stressful part of those first 3 months home was trying to manage my husband's behavior toward our children and his disillusions about life with our children. I felt that I had to be completely positive and always "on" and it was exhausting. By the 3rd month I was a zombie.
He had such unrealistic expectations even after all the information I had shared with him. Luckily, I had good resources and was pretty well prepared.

The other thing for us was that we were all so sick those first 3 months. Just one flu after the next. It was impossible to gain any momentum.
