Dear mummies and daddies, my husband is not bonding well with the LO and he has become frustrated and showing signs of violence and abuse (not to me or the LO but still concern). I think he is suffering from PND. Anyone daddies here have similar experience and can recommend any solution or pyschiatrist? I've called KKH PND support group but they only counsel mothers. TIA.

Is he having stresses at work? Try to talk more to your husband and concern about him. Sometimes when the baby has come into the family, mummy tends to neglect husband as too occupied with the baby. Try to raise your concern over his acts and ways of handling baby. I believe no parent will harm their own little child. Maybe what he needs is a stress management help.
