The non-birthing partner can suffer from postpartum depression as well. I’m sorry your wife suffered from that too. And yes, impacts on the birthing partner’s body is very real, but again, the original commenter was speaking about roles in parenthood, which both partners can take the same responsibilities. If you don’t believe me about hormones to make the non-birthing partner lactate, let me help you with that.
