I am on my 4th baby and my dh had been the same every time, he loses interest and gets fed up with me going on about precnancy things.  He told me the other week he is fed up with me telling him I am one more week pregnant every week.  After the first few times of feeling the baby kick he soon lost interest in feeling it.  I think it is not nearly as an amazing experience to them as they are not the one carrying the baby round 24 - 7 for 9 months.  It is something they can forget about while they are at work etc not like us who think about it all day.  So just because he is not taking as much interest as you would like does not mean he doesn't care.  He will once the baby is born you can't ignore it then but even still it is mummys job most of the time... Hope you see what I mean

Aw...I think I know how u feel, I felt like that loads earlier on n ended up making myself miserable feeling like I was doing this on my own.  I agree though I think sometimes if its the 1st it just isnt the same as its not happening to them, its my 1st too, my partner got excited over my 1st scan but thats been about it!  Suppose its happening to us and our bodies so its on our minds all the time?

U should definatly speak 2yr partner about it though, maybe if he realised how u were feeling he could explain why he's not shown that much interest?

I think its partly hormones aswell though! Well for me anyway!  Ur definatly not alone, it is really nice 2have other people to talk 2about this kinda thing : )

hi, im 17 weeks and this is also my 1st baby, I know exactly what you mean about your partner mine is the same, gets excited about scans and comes wth me to all appoinement but other than that you wouldnt know he knew i was pregnant. it is hard coz i love talking about the baby and what will it be like when she/he is here, but my partner doesnt get invloved much i think it is purly coz its so hard for them to get the head round it as they dont get symptoms etc and cant really feel the kicks etc til late on. i know its not coz he doesnt want me or the baby as its something we have wanted for sometime and he wants nothing more than me and our babies. I bet your fella feels the same chick so please try not to worry about things like that .x

sorry ur being neglected abit hun. i think it can be hard for men to be involved as they dont have much to do until baby is born. i have felt abit on my own. hubby doesnt really ask if ok or about baby but he did get exited about scan and hearing hb on doppler. it probably doesnt seem very real for him either if it his first baby. im sure he will be very happy when baby is here its just the waiting and men dont really pay much attention they are in their own little world. thank god for bounty

Hi im just wondering if anyone feels the same as i do??? im 16+5 and this is my first child and im scared as well as exited and im still wid my partner but the past couple of weeks i just feel like he dosent care any more like he dosnt wnt to be around me and that he dosnt want to know about the baby, but i dont know if its my hormones or if he is maybe goin off me??
