The 52 Questions Before Baby Card Deck gives you a helping “hand” when thinking about having a child with questions to ask each other before a baby joins your family. In this functional deck, each card asks one or more questions about how adding to your family might affect your life.
Partners take turns asking and answering the questions they draw from the deck. Each question encourages thoughtful reflection and dialogue about a decision that will change your life in a truly profound way. Sample questions:
- If you decide to be a full-time caregiver, what value does this contribute toward the household and finances?
- In what ways are you emotionally prepared to parent?
- How might you encourage or discourage your in-laws’ participating in your parenting?
- How do you feel about ‘hand me down’ items versus new items?
