does it mean he doesn't care?

It sounds like you have post partum depression. Your b/f should be helping, by all means! The fact that he isn't does not mean that he does not care, it is probably that he is really scared and has no confidence that he can take care of the baby! You need to get a babysitter. You and your b/f go out ( even if you just go to the park) you need to tell him how you feel and then enjoy the time you have just you and him. Do not feel guilty about doing this. It took me 4 kids to get over it and enjoy myself w/o them but YOU deserve it. You carried this baby for 9 months and you will take care of it for the rest of your life! Tell him that you cannot do this by yourself and if he cannot handle the baby yet then he needs to start doing the laundry, dinner, and all of the clean up! It is only fair that he pitches in. After a few days of doing all of that I guarantee he will be more willing to help out! Good Luck, and trust me it gets easier!

My husband and I went through something like that when our daughter was born. I seemed to be doing everything unless I specifically told him to do things. I was getting angrier and more frustrated by the day so I finally confronted him about it. Turns out, it wasn't that he didn't want to help, he admitted that he was just really unsure of how to help (he literally had no experience with babies). I changed the way I approached things with him, coaching him on things he was unsure of instead of getting mad. Here we are 4 months later and he is now the professional daddy! Try talking to your boyfriend, letting him know how you are feeling. That's the first step to solving the problem. Good luck to you.

How much did you talk about having this baby while you were pregnant? Maybe he's never wanted to be a dad because he doesn't like children. Maybe he's thinking that you're the one that knows what to do so you can do it. He could try harder. What does your boyfriend do all day? Is he just living off of you as if he were still a child himself and doesn't see any need to be responsible for anything but his own basic needs? You say you don't want to lose him but he doesn't sound like much to fight for. Think it over.

You need to sit him down and ask those exact questions to him. THat baby has 2 parents and thats how many should be raising him. I think ( i dont know him of course) thats it sounds like he doesnt care. If he cared dont you think he would want to be involved? and know everything he does ect? You need to talk to him and tell him to pull his finger out. This is not your fault. you sound like you are doing your bit now i think he needs to start doing his bit. This will get harder for you to once you resume work. Is he working? If not he definaelt yshould be dong somwthing. Just talk to him and do it quick cause you will quickly get frustrated being and single mum knowing you dont have to be....

when the child isvery young they tend to shy away because they afraid they will make a mistake and cause harm to the baby, give him time he will soten up.

well congrats on the new baby. you need to talk to him.

one on one and just tell him how you feel, don't get angry

just talk . good luck. he may just be a little scared too.

tell him that u had one baby not two, and make him jump on the ball.
