Texts supplied to mobile phones of partners of new mothers with SMI may increase partners' support. The texts in this study were acceptable to partners and were reported to enhance a partner's focus on the mother's needs, raise the partner's awareness of the infant's needs, and support the partner's confidence and competence in infant care.
