The study was to determine the relationship between the husband's support and the psychological adaptation process of postpartum mothers at the Denpasar Hospital in Bali. This research is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach, a sampling method with total sampling within the number of samples is 50 people. The results showed that most of the postpartum mothers who receive good husband support (N=22; 38.8%) experienced a safe and smooth taking-in phase (N=14; 13.6%). Postpartum mothers who received less husband support (N=9; 20%) experienced a phase of taking in postpartum blues in as many as 3 people.
