hubby acts like I'm not even pregnant

edited February 2011 in Pregnant
He never touches my stomach or talks about it unless he is talking about the boy names he wants. The baby has been kicking for a month and he hasn't felt it. If my back hurts or I feel sick he seems like he never notices and never asks me how the baby and I are doing. And if I have had a bad day or am emotional it all gets turned on me and he gets mad.

  • I'm so sorry to hear that! Have u tried talking to him about it? My hubby was like that with our 2nd child and I talked to him about it and he started paying more attention!
  • I'm sorryyyy I wish sometimes man can be pergo! Maybe I should change and be alil nice to my hubby. I wish you the best of luck ! %%-
  • @mommy_of_4 I tell him all the time and he gets mad. He likes like I'm trying to be an attention hog which I'm not at all. When I talk about the baby he says nothing or changes the conversation. This is our second and he was sorta like this the first time but not half as bad. And the more I do talk to him he says the more he doesn't wanna do it because he feels like I'm making him But I'm not at all.
    @havingthethird1 I really do wish men could know what its like.
    I just don't know what I'm going to do for 19 more weeks. I'm so unhappy.
  • I wish there was something else I could tell u. *hugs* hopefully it will get better!
  • @mommy_of_4 thank you a lot. I just need to vent. I have no one to talk to about it. I hope it gets better too. I know when the baby is here he will be a great dad but until then he has me totally stressed and angry.
  • That's exactly how my husband is and its our first :'(
  • @bwhite55019 it really sucks. I feel so alone. And it makes me mad at him always.

  • Try takin him to ultrasound
  • @excited25 he comes to all the appts but never talks about them or anything.
    @simplyraven22406 I just feel so alone in my pregnancy I wish it was more enjoyable. But at least I know when the baby is here he will be happy.
  • @due_in_july I'm sorryyyy I'm lucky now but I know how you feel my hubby was like that with my second child. I had to talk to him about it ! Wish you luck hun!

  • My boyfriend thinks I should still be able to do everything I did before I got preggo and when I was complaining one day about being preggo, he said "don't get lazy on me already" lol. He's starting to get better now that I'm further along but he does the same thing and flips it around on me when I get emotional, he gets mad at me :( its hard dealing with men like this :(
  • @havingthethird1 thank you.
    @simplyraven22406 I'm twenty weeks. He just says he would rather the baby to be here than in my stomach.
    @Heatherlynn I hate it
  • @HeatherLynn even if I get mad and say sorry right after he gets mad all day.
  • I have talked to several mommies and daddies to be who didn't get excited until the very end of their pregnancies out of fear that something would go wrong. Maybe it's a defense mechanism, to not get to invested.
  • @slr02 that's a good idea. I hadn't even thought of it that way. I'm already in my second trimester so I'm past the scary part although something can still happen its less likely now but that does make sense.

  • @simplyraven22406 I tell my hubby that the can hear him now and he should talk to it and he said it hears him talkin to me. I guess he doesn't understand the difference. Lol
  • when I used to complain to him he would say "its ur fault, u wanted this so now u got to suffer" agh that pissed me off!!
  • Him being worried makes sense to me, especially if he's acting "tough" & he keeps saying that he can't wait until the baby arrives. Its actually kind of sweet in a completely illogical testosterone driven kind of way. ;)
  • @allie8955 I get that all the time. Although we both wanted it I guess I just wanted it more
    @kriss82001 Yea I can there can be some positive in it.
