Wear gloves and surgical mask. Start wearing them when your wife is asleep, and scare her with them when she wakes up. You have the perfect excuse. But it's a delicate situation, so the gloves should be kid gloves.
I wouldn't want to be married to someone that keeps me away from my child without a medical reason just so they can play power games.
His doctor says he is clear....is there any reason not to trust the doctor?
I'd want to talk to my ped, honestly. And I am not a germaphobe or a controlling narcissist. 3 months is so young and with your first, you are usually extra careful.
You and your wife, and probably the baby too, are all likely colonized with MRSA. Probably ten percent of the country is colonized with it by now! Talk to your doctor about all of you doing bactroban up the nose for a couple of weeks to try to eliminate carriage.
Fact is, if you had MRSA, everyone in the house has it on them.
She is 3 months old. My wife is extremely narcissitic and always thinks she is right, no,reason we are in marriage counseling
You picked her. You knew she was this way before you got married. And don't say you didn't realize how bad it was. That's a lie. Now that you have a kid, obviously another mistake, just resign yourself to the fact that you are stuck with the situation until your baby is grown. It is your moral responsibility to be there for your child until the age of 18. Concentrate on being a good father, as it sounds like you picked the wrong woman to go through life with. And for the love of God don't have any more kids.
Let the protectiveness for your baby and not your feelings kick in. If the situation were reversed and it was your wife who recently had MRSA, betting she would not want to take one iota of a chance that she might expose her infant to the same thing...I know I wouldn't.
