Postpartum depression is horrific. It takes what is supposed to be one of life’s greatest joys and smothers it in misery. Being partnered to someone going through PPD is its own nightmare. We can easily find ourselves resenting our partner, feeling angry and even regretting having a child. Unfortunately, our natural responses to such a painful situation often make it worse.
Fortunately, there are a number of concrete steps you can take that will greatly alleviate the depression and even support you to be a stronger, better equipped family in the long run. In next week’s workshop, I will share these steps. If you have any questions or comments, please share them below and I will try to incorporate them into the workshop.
See you next week!
Hi Jenna.
Great to connect. I’d love to spread the word as much as possible. I’ll send you an email.

Hi, Julian! My name is Jenna Hatfield and I’m the Online and Awareness & Engagement Manager for Postpartum Progress. We have a whole bunch of information on dads, ppd, and other issues, though this one is from/by our founder’s husband, Frank. http://www.postpartumprogress.com/for-the-dads-why-you-need-support-through-her-postpartum-depression-too — If you want to talk more, I’d love to do so.
