Lauren Gilbert's Reviews > And Baby Makes Three: The Six-Step Plan for Preserving Marital Intimacy and Rekindling Romance After Baby Arrives

This book contains some good info that I think will be helpful to most readers. The exercises and the research conclusions are very interesting to me. However, most of the research is outdated (the edition I had was from 2001, I believe). Some of the advice is just so glaringly sexist and obnoxious. Furthermore, the style in the book is very disjointed. I know there are two authors, but there were at least three written voice styles. The parts expounding research read like they were from a whole other book, while the anecdotal stories to support the point of the chapter were kind of poetic and lofty, in a corny way. Then there were the exercises, which are just lists usually.

I read this book on recommendation by people on Reddit. I'd say you can skip this book in favor of some more up to date book on parenting and parental relationships. I don't know of one, but I will be keeping my eye out. Lmk if you have a rec.
