Until a decade ago, there was almost no research into men’s transition into fatherhood. But as a younger, more hands-on generation of fathers grows, “paternal postpartum depression” has become a phenomenon experienced by an estimated one in ten fathers of newborns and up to 25 percent of men with a 3-to-6-month-old baby.
“They are going through a phase their own fathers didn’t go through,” Darby Saxbe, a professor of psychology, said. “As men are becoming more involved in parenting, they’re experiencing a lot of the same risks moms have been going through.”
