My husband and I have always been very close. We get along very well and never fight. We really do have a perfect relationship.
Since having our baby girl all my energy goes to her. She is exclusively breastfed and feeds about every 2 hours.
My husband feels like I don't love him anymore. When she cries he can't sooth her she just wants me. I've told him this is normal but it doesn't matter. He feels left out and like I don't think he can take care of our daughter.
I don't know what to do! I love my husband so much and want to help him. Any suggestions?

Every guy kinda feels like that At first . My bf was also feeling like that! Because I breastfed and he felt useless . When my son soils cry he only wanted me! But with time they get to do more things .

probably not one of your options but did u try pumping and putting it in a bottle and let him try and feed her during a feeding time? he might feel a little better or have him change her diapers lol 😂

I agree with @mrs_velez . If you want to include him, allow him to feed the baby using a bottle. I know some people are worried about nipple confusion, etc but from my experience, my son never was more interested in a bottle than my breast. Also consider letting him do more skin to skin with the baby when baby is awake. I hope this helps.

Thanx ladies! I will try letting him feed her more and doing skin to skin. It's a whole new life with a a baby. It'll just take time to adjust ❤️

I was gonna say, tell him to take his shirt off and skin to skin. Some babies don't have nipple confusion, and you maybe lucky too. My daughter can do a bottle, breast, or pacifier. Just have him burp baby and all. I said her, and I can't remember if you said him or her. Lol sorry.
