They care about you and your baby's well being, but may not always know how to help you. Don't be afraid to tell them what you want or need. Dads get stressed, too. They may be worried about family finances, changing relationships, and many other things. Take time to talk about what's going on.
Dads also can help in special ways.
Your partner can help you stay calm and relaxed by being aware of the changes you are going through and offering to rub your back or help with the housework, or by just making an extra effort to keep the lines of communication open when things get tense.
