Part of this story
The Partner Shift
→You used to be partners. Now you're co-workers on no sleep. The scorekeeping starts without anyone noticing, the snapping gets worse, and the repair feels impossible when you're both running on empty.
Part of the quest
Just Became a Parent
→Nobody tells you that becoming a parent also means becoming a stranger to your own life. Your identity shifts overnight. Your relationship changes in ways you didn't expect. And everyone has advice except the one person who could actually help: someone who admits they don't know what they're doing either. This quest puts you in the raw early days — the sleep deprivation, the identity crisis, the relationship strain — and teaches you to navigate them without losing yourself or each other.

Who changed the last diaper? Who got up more? The silent accounting has begun. You and your partner used to finish each other's sentences — now you're negotiating shifts like exhausted diplomats.
You didn't mean to say it like that. But you're running on three hours of sleep and they just criticized how you held the bottle. The fight that follows isn't really about the bottle.
The old model of your relationship doesn't fit anymore. You need a new one — built for interrupted sleep, shifting roles, and the strange new tenderness of watching someone you love become a parent too.
