MY husband want more suporrt during pregnancy?

At my appointments my midwife always gives my husband a chance to talk. He is a big part of this pregnancy also and besides me the most involved one.

I would suggest having your husband write down some questions that he has and letting him ask them at the next appointment.

There are a few problems with this.

Often times, women become so incredibly wrapped up in being pregnant that we forget to include others in our lives. If someone is showing you or telling you that you're neglecting your relationship with them, pay attention. I admit I am utterly consumed by the fact that I am pregnant. It's on my mind 24 hours a day, I can't recall the last time I had a thought that did not include some aspect of being pregnant. My world revolves around the little guy in my belly.

More often than not, women are on here and a million other forums complaining about how their men are so rotten. They don't care. They're so insensitive. Why can't they just understand? Why can't they just do this? Why can't they just do that? I wish I had a man who cared, I wish I could get my man to care, I wish this... I wish that.. blah blah blah. Just browse through this forum and I'm sure you'll get a picture of what I mean.

Now here you have a man who DOES care and wants to participate in your pregnancy (which is his also so there's no "Now *I* have to worry about him as well as the baby" because it takes two to tango) and you're shutting him out. He's gone as far as to COMMUNICATE this to you and you brush him off like he's just a needy puppy you don't have time for. THAT is unfair.

You need to make time for him while you can before the baby is here. Just because a man expresses an emotional need for companionship and attention from you, doesn't mean he's being a baby or a wuss or any other tag anyone else would like to put on it. It means you're shutting him out and he's letting you know. Take care of it.

It's very common for a husband to get jealous when a baby comes (or in your case before). You can still be excited, just make sure you include him. Make sure you are giving him random hugs and kisses. Ask him to help you pick out stuff for the room, etc. it's very easy to forget about everything and put all your energy into your little one. They need it and are so freaking cute!!!! Just try to find that balance, and keep doing little things to let him know you are still there for him.

How do I compromise with my husband?

Why do girls think being anorexic is pretty?

What would you name your baby girl and boy if ..?

Wow, I hate to see how he's going to act once the baby arrives. I think he should see a therapist to talk out his feelings. It seems he's used to getting all the attention all the time and is acting like a spoiled child. Good Luck.

you cant just show your husband no attention and expect him to be okay with it. if your making an effort to show attention to your husband and hes still saying he doesnt get any then i would say he needs to grow up. i go thru stages in my pregnancy wheerre ill completely ignore my fiance and his needs and he has every right to be upset.

Your husband sounds like a big baby and needs to get over himself.

(edit) I don't know...maybe it's just me...but my husband doesn't act anywhere near this way. His comes to every single doctor appt with me and is very involved with my pregnancy and is always talking about our baby boy.
