You love your baby. But you miss her. 
 
The early days of parenting are all-consuming — feedings, diapers, routines, repeat. And somewhere in the haze, you realize: your partner is still here… but it feels like she’s drifted. You feel it in the silence, in the shorter conversations, in the look that used to linger. This guide is for the dads who feel left out. The ones quietly wondering if they’re still wanted. If it’s normal to feel this lonely. If there’s a way back.
