Week 6 was about early marriage and baby blues. I think the thing I liked most about this week was what we learned about the baby blues. I think it is pretty commonly thought that after a baby is born, couples will be more happy. In fact, studies show that when children are born, their martial satisfaction goes down when children are born. This actually makes sense, when a child in born less time can be spent with each other. The plus side to this is when the children leave. When kids leave the martial satisfaction increase dramatically. It quickly becomes higher then where it was at first. That isn't to say that we should have kids just to increase out satisfaction, however it is pretty awesome. Unfortunately most people divorce when they start having kids, when the satisfaction is going down, or right when all the kids move out. If people would only hold on longer, their relationship would most likely get better then they have ever experienced.
