my lukewarm husband

[ph1207]

All I've been doing since I found out I'm pregnant is reading and learning as much as I can about every little detail I can find. I'm just very excited.  And this was a planned pregnancy so my husband should be excited but it seems like it's the last thing on his mind. I've asked him to read so he can understand my exhaustion or mood swings or anything that's going on but he has no interest. I'm so emotional right now and he's disappointed me. Is this normal.

Thanks ladies! I guess I just feel a bit guilty about my fatigue and mood swings because I assume he thinks I'm just acting like a big baby. If I felt that he knew to expect these things then I wouldn't feel so bad about it. BUT I will just focus on my health and not worry too much about what anyone else is thinking :-)

Think it's a man thing all together as my man is the same, he doesn't seem to understand my emotions and moodyness and that i need support. I don't feel he's excited either. Hopefully it'll all change when the baby is here and i hope it improve for you too.

I am right there with you. In all of our pregnancies I have wanted my hubby to be more involved and to want to know how I am feeling and why, but he just has never really had an interest. Once baby gets here he is always so happy and into being a father's butwhile iI am pregnant it seems like he could care less. I also think it has a lot to do with him being a Police Officer and is always working that when he is home he is busy with our other 2 children and making sure everyone is happy. Hang in there hun, men don't really realize that these things mean so much to us. Good luck and god bless

Well my husband doesn't like reading so I knew before hand he wouldn't do anything like that. But he comes to all the appointments, helps out where he can, and has picked up extra hours at work so I can buy whatever I want for a baby. So try and focus on all the other things instead of him not wanting to learn about pregnancy and what your body is going threw.
