My wife has many of the same issues. She is not postpartum with a new baby, however. She is 50. She does not speak any significant amount of English yet, and at least you seem to be reasonably fluent (I am reasonably fluent in Russian, so that is our common language). My wife has a Ukrainian driver's license, but is afraid to drive here in Texas. Worse, she is used to living in a city environment, and my home is on the distant fringe of suburbia. Between language, location, and not driving she is essentially a prisoner when I am not home. And she is not alone in feeling as she does. She is not my first Ukrainian wife, and over the last 30 years I have known several women, both in the US and in Ukraine who were not happy living in the US. Probably 60% were not happy here. Many of those even left and went back home to Ukraine. Some were US citizens, some threw away the Green Card, did not want to even come back for a visit, and it was not about their partner, it was just that they didn't like living in the US. We have my wife's Green Card interview in a few weeks, and I anticipate that after that, she will go home for a couple of months. I don't think she really wants to spend more than half of her time in the US looking forward. I am semi-retired, so I can spend some of that time in Ukraine with her. I am a retired Army Colonel, have lived all over the world since I was a child, and am comfortable in many places. Some of the discomfort in living out of your native country is related to when you began to travel. The earlier it begins the easier it is to live somewhere else. The later you begin, the more difficult it becomes.
