My husband - I am just scared to lose him forever.?
My husband's family will not like us to get separated, netiher mine. Especially when I am pregnant and everyone is so excited about the baby. Why myhusband is the only one who feels different. I know what you all saying, I think that too that I should move on with my life where I don't need to feel like this. My husband is not physically abusive to me but yes he gives me lots of strain mentally. When we are happy, we are genuinely happy but then there comes a day where he will totally forget that I am his wife and he should respect me. In my last 2 posts, I told you about our situation and I know leaving him won't be easy. I married him love, He is a good guy, he is doc with very busy schedule, he is nice to me when he is nice to me but when he is mean, he leaves no stone unturned to hurt me. I know he is stubborn and has lots of ego, saying sorry is biggest deal for him. But is it so easy for guys to let go their pergnant wives. Don't they feel bad?
I am so confused in my head. I have spoken to him to no avail. I just don't want our marriage to end like this especially when i have baby coming in our lives. Do men really don't feel anything for thier unborn children?

OK I don't know much of your situation, but It sounds like he might be scared of being a father. He should put his family (you and the baby) first over the rest of his family. Sometimes they have to go through this to realize what is important. Your hormones can also be playing with you, meaning might be making it worse then it is. You could be taking everything to serious which causes you to be emotional. Please don't take offense to that, as women we all do that. Your situation reminds me of my sister-in-law when she got pregnant her husband wasn't around he would go out all the time and was hardly home. It was very hard for him to accept that she was pregnant and would hurt her and not do what she wanted only what he wanted. It didn't get much easier after the baby was born, it took him about a year to actually start being really good with the baby and wife thing. She too had the same problem all her family lives in another country and she doesn't have anyone here except for him and his family. She was also going to leave him during her pregnancy but she stuck it out and is still sticking it out.
I don't know if you can wait or not but try and see if he starts to respect you and the baby, if not then I would leave and go home to your family. Good Luck!!

You should stay - for better, for worse. I think your giving up too easily since this is common in marriages. Communication is the key. You need to be straight up with your husband "Honey, I'm feeling very unloved and need more support for you because I'm going through a hard time.." My husband & I went through the SAME thing when I was pregnant 7 months ago and it will get harder once the baby comes because your going to be drained from lack of sleep. We are still having some problems but not as bad because it is a HUGE adjustment. Ask him if something is bothing him at work. Get him to talk about his feelings. Go to counseling if need be. Look at coping.org There are tools to help you if you want try self-help. Good luck!

Don't wait for the baby to be born like someone suggested to make your decision. Go with your heart and try talking to him about how you feel and what your thinking now, why let things linger and build? It is not healthy to be that stressed out during a pregnancy and if he loves you and this child he will want whats best for the both of you. Maybe some time apart could help clear both heads but don't make a decision until you've had a chance to discuss it together. Either way you will both be connected for life now and as new parents you will need to now make a decision that is best for your child.

In my experience, the mom generally has more of an upper hand in keeping the children. As I was told when I wanted to go after custody of my daughter, "If the mom is not Physically abusing her nor on drugs, then you really have very little chance of getting custody". My lawyer told me that I could spend $10,000 and still not get her. As long as you are a good mother to your children, they should be yours. Don't quote me on this for your area, but that is the way it is here. You might find a lawyer that will give you a consultation for little or no money. That would help you decide which way to go on this one. Good luck. I hope everything works out well for you.

It sounds to me that your blaming yourself. Just because you are pregnant don't mean you keep a man. I'm pretty sure your child Will be raised the right and proper way. Both parents living in the house don't make the children. Long as the child has both parents when they need them everything will be OK. Most kids that grow up in a 2 parent home has issues that's when they blow up schools.
Just give it some thought.
I will rather live single happy then together miserable

He's probably stressing over becoming a father. Wait til the little bundle of joy comes out, and he will relax a bit. Plus don't forget, your hormones are all out of whack, so don't be to hard on him.

you could just be having issues with horomones making things seem more extreme when he upsets you
wait till after you have the baby and see how it is then
if he's still mean then you can leave
