My partner was exactly the same. I gave it about two weeks to set in before I sat him down (in the car on the way to dinner) and told him exactly how I felt. I started crying, he started crying. I straight out said that if it was causing us this much stress than we should not keep it (my best friend is older and struggling to fall pregnant) and it was at hearing this that he realised that he couldn't just give it away knowing it's his. He admitted he was scared, I told him I was too.16 weeks later, he's more excited and doesn't refer to our little man as "it" anymore.Give it time before you make any big decisions. You might make irreparable damage by just leaving to your mums. Just hold tight, let him digest the news and if in a couple of weeks it's still like this, you can leave for your mums really knowing you've tried.
Support
Since I found out my boyfriend refuses to talk about the baby. I am still early in the first trimester, but my mom is supportive if I move back in to her house from my boyfriends parents. He won't tell them because he thinks we will get kicked out. I don't want to lose him or the baby, but I need the support. What do I do? Everytime I try and talk to him I just start crying and he gets mad and thinks I'm breaking up with him....
