Hi ladies! I'm new at this and this is my first post! My name is Carolyn and I'll be 20 weeks on Friday. Not sure what we're having yet. Also have a 7 yr old stepdaughter. I was actually wondering if anyone had any trouble with their spouse seeming not into it and how to not stress over it. Hope to meet some new friends here. Be nice to have someone in the same boat lol.
yeah mine wanted a boy too..sounds like our men are long lost brothers lol @cimarie1314
@_akgirl, I hope that's part of it. He's just so back and forth with it. Hoping it's just cuz he's nervous or something. @meganeileen6 sorry to hear about your loss it's such a difficult thing to go through took me a while to come back. I completely get where you're coming from I'm 20 weeks now and waiting to see his level of excitement change however we just found out it's a girl and he really wanted a boy :/ @mommy3 I hope he comes around support is so important. Helps to have someone to talk to even though all we want is our guy to be there for us.
@cimarie1314, Yes I'm not working at the moment either so it would be nice to be there for one another in this troubled time
@_akgirl, I totally get what you're saying but my situation is a tad bit different. See my bf isn't the father of my child. It was only a few weeks after we started dating that I found out and sense telling him things have gone south for us. I just hope he comes around and be there when this baby is born cuz he obviously isn't going anywhere
@cimarie1314, @meganeileen6 @mommy3 my bf was like that. so was my cousin, according to his wife. she said something that helped me deal with it. because it's not "real" for them yet. They're not the ones growing this blessing. they don't feel all the kicks or hiccups. it's not going to be real until baby is in their arms. i know that was true with my bf. he freaked out when we found out and the first two weeks home. the rest was just whatever
yes we dont want to seem like a burden to them. We lost a baby in October but im 24 weeks now...he should know this little girl stuck. i dont want to have to wait until shes born for him to be excited.
@_akgirl, thank you! I did not know that. @meganeileen6 that's very similar to what I'm dealing with. This is my first post miscarriage and will be my only so I'm trying to make this as special as I can and he seems bothered by anything to do with it. I almost wanna quit even involving him. @mommy3 it's def upsetting I'm trying not to let it get to me too bad I just don't understand how they could not care or at least seem like it. If anyone needs to vent it out I'm available as I don't work right now I know talking sometimes helps.
Welcome to the app and I think you will like it. But in response to your post, I'm definitely dealing with that problem with my boyfriend. He doesn't show any interest or support what so ever and it's starting to depress me. I'm 6 months
welcome! im not quite sure how to explain it..but i feel my husband isnt into our pregnancy much either..i have people at work ask me about the baby and rub my belly more than he does and hes the one that i want to actually touch my bump! when shes moving i feel like im annoying him to try to feel her..😐
welcome!! hope you love this app. i do. it's a great community. also, unlike Facebook, you have to tag people when you reply or they won't see it.
Thank you dee! I'm sorry to hear that I couldn't imagine how you must have felt. Mines hasn't said or done that says he's excited but I just feel like I'm doing it alone. He makes it seem like a hassle more than anything.
but thank you ❤ i still get the emails from when i registered on a pregnancy app with that pregnancy...id be 39 weeks now. its crazy.
