I Heard Our Baby Crying While I Was in the Shower And My Wife Was Watching TV – When I Entered His Room, I Screamed in Shock

My mother-in-law called a few days later. “It’s not you or the baby,” she said. “It’s depression.”

I was shocked. I hadn’t realized how deeply my wife was struggling with the pressures of motherhood. But now, she had agreed to therapy, and she needed my support.

Over time, my wife began to heal. Small changes—she started painting again, and our bond with our son grew stronger. One evening, she apologized, her voice trembling. “I didn’t realize how bad things had gotten,” she said. “I was lost.”

Slowly, we started rebuilding. It wasn’t easy, but together, we’re mending our family.
