There's nothing like having a baby to totally upend your relationship. What do you do when you're sleep-deprived, lost in a sea of nappies and bottles, and the one person you used to turn to suddenly has other things on their mind.

I was told that after having kids, the sex would dry up. What I wasn't ready for was how much more would change about my relationship. So how do we maintain a healthy relationship with our partners through all the madness of raising a baby?

This episode we talk to:

· Archie Thompson

· Elly Taylor

· Sam Perry

· Tom & Rachel

· Archie Thompson

· Dr Bronwyn Leigh
