So I went for my first prenatal checkup with my husband and I could of killed him!!! He did not want to be there, he kept making mean comments, does not want to be in the room when I deliever... and says he's not excited about this. I thought if he heard the heart beat it would help, but I don't think it did. Are all men like this... or do they change over the 9 months??? It's hard to be excited when he's not! ↓

| No, my husband thought it was cool to see the heart beat and he surprised me about being so excited our third time around. ↑ |

| Im so sorry your hubby is being that way...My husband loves to be with me at all of my appts and gets pist if he can't be there...He gets soo happy when we have u/s ..he thinks its amazing..Sooo I have no idea what you are experiencing but I think it maybe would help if you told him how you feel and that its hurts your feelings..good luck ↑ |

| Well, at the beginning, Mark was a little freaked out, even though he wanted the baby. He didn't want to believe we were actually going to have a baby, and to start preparing for him till I was 20-weeks, just incase I lost him. But he went with me to every single antenatal appointment I had, was sitting beside me through every blood test, ultrasound, Internal examination, etc etc etc the entire 9 months, he was by my side the whole way through my Induction, my labour, and he watched our baby come out of me. So, no, it isn't normal. He should be excited! A lot of men will never have the honour to be fathers. ↑ |

| hi blondiess4u, my partner wasnt as x cited as me tru out t pregnancy, i was asking hm 2 read books and just generally gt involved he had no interest really, he did go 2 the apps, and showed off the scan photos 2 who evr would look, but they all deal with it diff, he was ther 4 me dnt get me wrong, was crying when she was born, gave her her 1st bottle etc and is t best dad evr, so dny worry. may b he is worried about t birth and u, could be his way of dealing with situations he has no controll over. hope he comes around im sure he will. ↑ |

| Thanks for all your help... I can't believe how many men are as excited as women about their pregnancy's.. I guess I just thought it was normal.. I'll just give him a litte more time and see what happens.. we have an ultrasound on Jan 4th to find out the sex of the baby... and if he isnt excited after that... I give up! ↑ |
