Partner doesn't understand my postnatal anxiety — feeling alone

Posted Apr 15, 2026

My husband thinks I'm overreacting. He says 'the baby is fine, you're fine, stop worrying.' But I compulsively check if she's breathing. I can't sleep even when she sleeps. I know these are symptoms of something real but I don't know how to make him understand without making it a fight.
