Partner not interested or its just me ?

Question

Does anyone else feel like their partner isn't intresetd in baby/pregnancy?  Everytime I tell my partner about baby Dr app etc I feel like he dosnt car ....or is it just me thinking that ?

Answer

My SO is exciting as much as you would think, he doesn't rub my belly or talk about the baby. He's basically waiting until we find out what we're having and then he'll connect through saying the name and whatnot. So I'm not concerned with bonding at this point.

Answer

I care definitely more them my other half I do read more then him but I know he love me and  the little baby and is probably more difficult for him to understand how I feel sometimes. I'm having a good time , no sickness or anything like that so he's probably thinking I'm dealing with a pragnancy fine, but I have got my moments when I'm not myself. 
I do talk to his mom and then she's telling him it's normal that I'm "funny" sometimes . He care about me and both waiting for 20week scan so we know what we having:)

Answer

I definitely think it's a lot harder for them to connect at this point. Especially if they can't feel kicks or anything. I think we have a huge advantage with that being the one that carries the baby. My husband goes to all my appointments and rubs my belly a lot but when I say stuff like oh baby has been hyper today or something he kinda just smiles and goes on about his business. I want someone to be able to ramble about it with but I understand they don't really GET what it's like so that probably sucks for them I'm sure.

Answer

My husband is interesting about it. He doesn't really touch my belly. I think he's still getting used to the idea of a baby being in there. I think once he feels the baby kick he will start to become for engaged. He's wierd about sex too. It makes him feel wierd to have sex cuz he thinks the baby knows we're doing it lol.

Answer

I get irritated at my fiancé for the same thing. He's only rubbed my belly like twice, and I guess because we've had a miscarriage before he doesn't want us using the baby's name at all before he's born. He also said he won't feel like we're really going to have this baby until birth...it's like he's so afraid of losing it he refuses to connect. 
I understand his worry, but then it makes ME worry and feel like I'm in this alone.

Answer

My husband said it really hasn't hit him yet so that's why he doesn't act so thrilled.... you're not the only one! It drives me crazy! Like we're having a baby... I'm way to excited.

Answer

My hubby got more interested after he came with me to my 17 week ultrasound and got to see baby and hear the heartbeat! I don't think it was real to him before that.

That same day he picked up a book for newbie dads! I love that he's been reading and stopping to discuss things and ask me questions.. Makes me feel like he's so much more involved now. ❤️

Answer

I just think of it like sometimes no one is going to be as excited and as engaged as you because you're the only one physically (and I'm sure more emotionally) going through it! I feel the same way but I just try not to worry about little thing too much because I know I'm excited for my baby no matter who else is :)
