Feel alone

I feel as though I'm the only one excited about this baby.. it's like no one takes the situation seriously.. everytime I talk about doctors appointments or things to get the baby they kind of advoid it and I have no clue what to do.. I'm 16 weeks and I found out at 6 I thought that would have gave them enough time to adjust.. it gave me enough time. Now all I can do is think about this baby and I feel so alone. My boyfriend acts like I'm not even pregnant which irritates me. :(

I wouldn't worry too much about this yet, for most men the reality of the situation doesn't sink in until they actually hold their baby. The further along you go and the more you start to show, when he can feel and see your baby kick he will probably start getting as excited as you.

Hang in the girl. My husband didn't really register my pregnancy until my belly was popping way out. And his whole demeanor flipped when he felt the kicks for the first time. They don't get the experience we do with carrying the baby so I think they're attachments just take more time hoping for the best for u and ur lil blessing (:

stay strong momma boyfriends are bad about that kind of thing. babies are horrifying to them. I know he may seem like he's being an *** by ignoring it or not putting much thought into it but it's natural. he'll warm up eventually. but for most the reality of it doesn't kick in till after the birth. your not alone cx it's just hormones they'll drive you crazy

I'm only 18 and yes of course it wasn't planned but the situation could have been way worse. A baby is a blessing. I've suffer from a great lost 3 years ago. My brother died at the age 18 and I feel as though God gave me this baby not to replace him but just because he knows the struggles we've faced
