Separated, new baby, but still hopeful

[newmama]

WH just texted to me to ask if his sister and stepdad were visiting today (I didn't tell him they weren't yet). He said "Hope S won't be too worn out" when I replied simply with "No they aren't" he replied "That's probably for the best anyway so you two can rest."


I take it there isn't anything people feel like commenting on but will someone please humor me and make a guess as to why WH is so nervous now about me talking to his stepdad?
