Options missing in the question:
a. relatives and friends visiting for hours on end
b. the baby’s interruption of their sleeping
c. how difficult it is to go places
d. hard to express themselves sexually
Answer:
A is correct: relatives and friends visiting for hours on end. The visit to family and friends doesn't make the parents concerned because their visit is for a short time. This factor can not sustain for long.
Explanation:
According to the developmental scientists, the transition to parenthood is a major transition in one's life. Parenthood changes everything such as emotions, behaviors, relationships, identities, etc. Likewise, constant demands of a new baby and sleeplessness cause hormonal changes.
Why other options are most relevant are due to following reasons:
B. It's hard to take enough sleep for new parents because the baby awakes up in short intervals(after every one or two hours) for milk. Sleeplessness makes new parents difficult to make their nerves strong to handle the transition.
C. Traveling with a newborn is not easy because their eating and sleeping routines can be disturbed. They cannot take proper sleep and start crying during traveling. A diaper change in a strange place is also a difficult task for many mothers (parents).
D. Sometimes parents have difficulty finding time for each other. They cannot express their love to each other as they should. This is because caring for a newborn takes all of their time. It is also because they have all of their attention to baby than each other. They are concerned about this one too.
