My daughter is 5 months old and my husband has not bonded with her at all. After six years of marriage, he feels like our relationship is gone because of the baby. He tells me he's not ready to be a father, and he seems very depressed. I've told him he needs to get help or I'll leave. What else can I do? Please help.

You can meet a psychologist if talks and discussions between your husband and you haven't helped him. I guess, we always know and discuss postpartum depression in women, but hardly think that men (though they don't deliver physically) can also suffer from it. I think, your husband is feeling quite burdened mentally with the birth of the child thinking that he has now got a huge responsibility to fill as a father. Probably, when you concieved, and carried the baby, he did not feel that because he couldn't see the baby. He did not know but may be was not ready for this new role. I suggest, you should see a counsellor or a psychologist who can ease out his fears, and show him the brighter side. I know it must be tough for you to see your husband attitude and not feeling any attachment for the baby but I think all you need is give him little time.
