So me and my daughters dad split back in November. I’m 5 1/2 months pregnant with our second child. And he barely ask about this baby. But whenever I’m talking to friends/family they say he’s excited. We do an arrangement with our daughter every other week.. when she’s with him, he calls everyday. When she’s with me he still calls everyday. Idk why he isn’t asking about this baby though..... he’s very involved with Kennedi. Has anyone ever dealt with this?

@iheartyvettee I bet it will be okay. Honestly, if you guys aren't together it probably makes it harder to be like how was your obgyn appt, or can I feel the baby kick? He might just not want to cross a line or make you uncomfortable.
@mct, I hope it changes once he sees the baby because I’m wondering if he doesn’t care about this baby because we aren’t together anymore.
I'm not going to lie, my husband isn't good at being a dad to the unborn baby. I don't really blame him. Work doesn't give him enough vacation to come to appt or ultrasounds. He has felt the baby kick but I think it is weird for him. Some men just do better at showing up once they arrive. From the second DD was born he showed up for everything. Every midnight feeding, took off when she was admitted to the nicu. He doesn't care what is going on at work if she is in trouble he is going to be there. I'm pregnant with a baby boy this time and he seems to just have trouble knowing what it looks like to be a dad before baby arrives, but once the baby shows up he is the best Dad ever.
@luceromommy, maybe that’s it. He is a great dad.
Most dads don't get the full "omg it's another one of my kids" until they are born. Since baby isn't in their tummy. Maybe it's like outta sight outta mind even more so since he's not there. I'm sure he'll be there once baby is here. Sounds like a good dad
@mct, yeah maybe you’re right. I get that completely. Thank you!
