Men whose partners are women struggling with antenatal or postnatal depression often find themselves receiving less affection and intimacy from their partners. If symptoms of antenatal depression arise, it is recommended for fathers to provide encouragement for their partners to discuss their condition with a healthcare provider. It is also important for the father to also seek support for himself. In a research performed in Sweden observing 366,499 births, newly diagnosed paternal depression around the time of conception or during pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of preterm birth. However, a preexisting paternal depression did not show any correlation, which may be due to the mothers perception of the changes in her partners mood. See also
