My husband is a very shy guy and we hardly talk at home. However, her has a lot to talk to on the phone with his parents and other friends. What could be the reason for his aloofness?

Hi dear, I feel most of us wives and moms go through this phase at some point of time in our lives. But the good thing is, you can try and work on it and probably things will be fine. You said your husband is a shy man, but otherwise finds it easy to talk to his parents and friends. Maybe it is because you both are busy in your roles and are not able to spend time with each other? Do you think you are too tired and occupied with your role as a mom? If it helps, you can try and initiate conversation each day with your husband. Once he is home, ask him how his day was and what he did, and if there was anything interesting that happened. Tell him about anything interesting that happened with you, something you read or saw, or anything that could start conversation. Maybe you both could go out on a dinner sometime and just talk about each other, without discussing the baby? Or else, make one night a week just a couple night, when you will not discuss about the baby for a set time, but just talk about yourselves. Try and see, I think it could help :)
