Mu husband is having a really hard time accepting that our lives are going to be very very different from here on in and although he loves our daughter very much, he often gets frustrated with her and complains about how we are never going to have time for ourselves again. Anyone have any practical advise on how to make him feel better?

set aside a date night once a week or even once a month that is just for the two of you this way he can see that he will still get together time with you. Either leave the child with a sitter or a relative you need to work even harder on a marriage once there are children.

Life wont be very very different, it will be the same...just add in less sleep and a baby. You can still make time for yourselves, have grandma watch baby while you two go to a movie, dinner, or just for a walk every so often. If you don't make time to re-kindle your relationship, it gets strained and less communication happens.
