McGill University employees have proven that depression is associated with pregnancy and childbirth, it also happens in men.
The study involved 662 men who became fathers. Scientists have observed their condition throughout the year and a half. Volunteers interviewed about their emotional state, physical activity levels, quality of sleep, financial position, etc., when their wives were in the third trimester of pregnancy. Symptoms of depression were identified in 13.3 percent of men.
Experts note that the risk of developing depression, while significantly dependent on whether young father spill. If the number of hours of sleep was significantly lower than normal, the likelihood of depression increased significantly.
If your husband is able to calm dialogue, talk to him, explain that you understand how difficult it, remind them that you and this role is new, and you are also hard to get used to it. Tell him how you appreciate his concern and understanding, it is now. How valuable all that for you, what it does for your family. Explain that your life together is now difficult period to go you can just together.
Try to figure out what's bothering your spouse, gives him confidence that he had to deal with everything, he's the best dad in the world. Men need to feel important. And strange as it may sound, but the best tool in overcoming depression, is your baby. Leave alone dad with a child, it is suggested that some duties will be to do it - for example, bathe crumbs. You have to promise that you will be somewhere nearby and always tell me how to get out of a situation.
Often tell his wife about how you spent the day, which made the new baby is waiting for daddy to work. Try not to complain about all the time you are tired of this pope will be worse to move closer to the baby, time to him so hard. It is better to tell the Pope how fun to watch and participate in the development of the child. Another important tip: Often mothers gladly identify themselves with the child and often used the pronoun "we."
We walked, we played, we slept, ate, etc. A Pope discharged extraneous "you." All it hears your husband, he sees it as would be put aside, even though we used to - it was just you and him. Try to make sure that, as you say, unite husband and child, herself and her husband. We - this is you, dad and baby, it's your little family.
