My partner said he feels alone and it's like he's lost his best mate. Our son is 5 weeks old and he's a great father all round. However lately he's been quite sheltered and not himself. He's been drinking a lot more than usual about 7-12 cans most days and only feeds our son when I ask for help which to be honest I never ask him for help because he's always had a drink and don't trust him in case he has an accident.
I want to help my partner feel loved and not pushed aside but I don't know where to start. I'm always giving him a hug and the odd shoulder massage here and there and a kiss. Do I need to tell him I love him more or something why is he so sensitive all of a sudden I'm the one with baby blues o_O how can I help him?
