8 months pregnant and my husband said this 😰 what would you do?

Question

The other day my husband and I were having a talk and being very honest with each other and how we are feeling emotionally because I told him he seemed like he might be a little depressed recently. He confessed that he has had thoughts about if he really wants a child. 
Maybe this is normal for a guy that has a baby due in 4 weeks but I am completely heartbroken I don’t know how to go on. We have been married for over a year and together for 4 years. We were always on board with kids and I didn’t have to twist his arm to try to conceive. I just feel so blindsided. He says he has sacrificed so much for the pregnancy but couldn’t explain what he has sacrificed besides going to appointments with me. 
I just want to cry 💔

Answer

He is probably getting nervous when the baby comes he is going to be so in love give him some time baby will be the best thing that ever happened to him and congratulations

Answer

Sounds like he’s just nervous about the transition from freedom to fatherhood. It’s a BIG life event. 
I felt this way before both my babies even though they were very very much wanted and planned. There’s just that thought in the back of my head “oh no, am I ready for this?” 
I don’t think you need to be heartbroken or sad by his statement. Just give reassurance that he’ll be a great dad and everything will be okay.

Answer

I know it hurts, but honestly, he's probably just really scared. Becoming a dad and realizing you're responsible for taking care of a completely defenseless baby can be overwhelming, even when it's wanted. My husband loves our son SO much, but he really about had a nervous breakdown when he was born. At least he's trying to be honest and communicate with you about how he's feeling. You guys need to be able to talk to each other, adapting to life as new parents with a newborn is HARD and you're going to need to be able to lean on each other. Try to cut him some slack, I know I needed my husband to cut me some more than once in the thick of life with a newborn.

Answer

Its normal. Alot of us have these thoughts. I went back and forth so many times before my pregnancies and even after having kids. Just give him a chance. Once he sees the baby he will love it so much.

Answer

I think hes just nervous.

Answer

Everyone has thoughts. I wouldnt worry about it unless he was asking you to do something to terminate your pregnancy. He will come around. :)

Answer

Oh sweetheart, he is just scare of the unknown! Remember that you are the one who feels the little baby and he doesn't. My husband was the same and in the labour day he was sooo pale and scare but once our baby was born, he was a different person! At first he never wanted to be alone with the baby, not because he didn't want to, he was scare to hurt him! I know you are more sensitive now but don't overthink this as this can stress you & him more. You'll see his change once he see the baba

Answer

Aww don’t worry bringing a child in this world is a huge life child experience he will. Be very excited just watch and see congratulations send baby dust
