Me and my partner (26f) have just had our second child. The firstborn is not my biological but is my son none the less. My partner has mental health issues anyway but since birth my partner has spiraled even more so. Is there anyone here who has any advice and guidance on how to navigate this as it is getting to a point our relationship has come into question. What can I do to aid her more and how could I navigate this in a way where she doesn’t feel like I’m trying to attack her for her mental health but to help her. Me and the newborn are currently spending nights away to try and help her manage and I am currently primary parent. Any help will be appreciated.

@Burneraccount12how is she now? Does her GO know and her HV? It sounds as though she needs support from professionals as well as the support that you are providing.
