***Pregnant Rant** Is it wrong for me to be upset that Gia's dad hasn't bought anything for her? I mean he works we don't live together because I don't want to. This is his first kid . He only gave me $150 to help with the baby shower after I asked which I felt I shouldn't have had to do since he could not Attend due to working out of town . Then early March I asked him to get the stroller n car seat and April rolled around so I bought it myself. He has money he makes sure he stays draped in the best of clothes. We went to dinner a few weeks ago and he shows me a new American Express card and discover credit card. And I thought to myself but yo ass didn't get your baby a car seat, it's like he will take me out to eat and spend $200 bucks but won't go get stuff for the baby I don't get it which is why we don't live together because of behavior I saw in regards to running a household that I didn't agree with when he would spend long periods at my house. Then yesterday he sent me pix of some mittens, a pack of onsies n receiving blankets and a box of 150 diapers. He only purchased those things after I went off and said baby will be here in 12 days and you ain't bought so much as a onsie. This is my second child, I get no help from her dad and I have spent over a grand on this baby already. I feel like he should see I'm hardworking, I take care of my daughter on my own he knows my struggle with her dad you would think he would try to make sure to do his part to make it a little easier on me this time around.I just don't think he gets it. He sees me preparing and he's never even asked what she needs we are not teens so I don't feel I should have to tell him. For him to not do it on his own makes me feel like he's not even happy about the baby. I've developed such resentment for him in these last months of pregnancy. It's to the point I told him don't call or come I'll call when I'm in labor cuz I feel I'm doing it alone anyway.

It's his first child so maybe too hard on him instead ask him can we go shopping for the baby instead of just assuming he should know what to do. If he forgets just remind him

hopefully he will change for the better once the baby comes. Its unfortunate that he couldn't help a little more with the preparation though.

men are just weird...I've always tried to figure out what my boyfriend thinks about. We have been going through the same issue...I've spent more on our child than he has as well. It's like it doesn't even bother him...I've think he should be doing as much as me if not more because this is also his first child and my second. I definitely don't think your wrong for feeling the way you do because he should be putting a little more effort. Just keep doing what you've been doing.

Stop asking his ass for stuff . His priorities are clearly not his kid . You shouldn't have to ask a grown man to take care of his kid . He's already showing you his colors . Do what you have to do to take care of your lil girl . Don't even depend on him and if you have too . Put that ass on child support .

@elenaj that's the thing I don't really I kept waiting n it's worse because we are supposed to be in a relationship we aren't separated but I feel like it's all fun and games until it's required to do real man shit then he act like he deaf dumb and blind. I can take care of her financially without him but I shouldn't have to and he is showing me that I need to just put him on paper. I mean I don't have the luxury to wait til she get here to take action so first kid or not neither should he. I hope seeing her will turn the light on but I can't wait around for that I thought once he seen my big ol belly the light would come on or once he felt a kick but still nothing I know guys process things diff and have stress n baby worries too but damn if not for me n my friends n Fam it seems our baby would have had nothing smh

You know how he's not stressed out about the baby ? If he was he wouldn't be flossin credit cards and fresh clothes . I know he was like this before you got pregnant as well . He's showing you his true colors . Do yourself a favor and don't stress and do what you have to do as a woman . He not worried about you or that baby .

@sunshinelovesu, you're right I'be tried that I was like I want to go this weekend n get baby stuff he said she had lots of stuff I'm getting carried away. Maybe I should worded it like you just said but sheesh. I'm not one to ask a man for anything esp to help take care of his kid so a flaw I have is if I do ask I'm only doing it once and if you don't rejoin then eventually I'm going off on you which may not be the best way to do things. I swear I've been patient seeing as how he has no kids and ain't been around babies. Like that

@queenof2 I hope he does because I'm literally at my wits end. I really am to the point I don't think I want to continue a relationship his lack of action in helping prepare for this baby makes me feel like maybe he don't think it's his because for everything we talked about n as long as we been together the way he's heen this whole pregnancy is so not how I thought he would be. He been saying he wanted a baby since we first met but the way he acted since I was like 4months you would think that was never the case smh
