Dad to be question

My Hubby adores the bones of my son and we have another one on the way but he doesn’t touch the bump or that. I think it’s just him. It’s not meant in a mean way it’s just the way he is. He didn’t touch the bump really with frost either. Sometimes men just don’t get excited about things like that as we do. X

Could it be that he's a bit squeamish about it? My partner is constantly touching my bump when baby moves etc, but he does say it feels weird sometimes when it's big movements etc. I find it weird myself tbh feeling it from inside lol xx

My partner just fully isn't interested in feeling the bump and when he does he's like is that it?? 😂 It hurt my feelings at first but I just don't think it's his thing, he's really excited about the baby as a whole. Try not to take it personally and know you're not the only one xx

My partner wasn't wanting to either and I said that it upset me and he explained it really freaked him out feeling her move and seeing my stomach moving. He is so excited to meet the baby, and he will touch the bump now and again, I think for us we have no choice but to feel the movements but for them its a choice and it is a strange concept I guess!!! I remember feeling my nephew kick for the first time and that really freaked me out too!!! Worth a conversation with him though if you feel able to and see if you can understand why he doesn't want to? That might help your feelings not be so hurt?!

Our first he wasn’t interested at all in any of the pregnancy stuff or feeling kicks but he is honestly the most fantastic father and loves the bones off her. This time round he’s a little more invested as he knows what he’s getting at the end of it maybe but yeah it really upset me the first time round but I think some blokes just aren’t into all that. Worth speaking to him about how you’re feeling though x

with our first my partner was always touching bump, reading to them and giving kisses, i think the novelty has worn off with the second as he barely touches them and if i grab his hand or ask him to feel her kick he gets irritated that i’m taking his hand away from his phone for 5 seconds😂 doesn’t help our 3 year old absolutely drains us both and he’s doing overtime at work before baby comes so i’m trying not to get upset over it as i know once baby comes he’ll care

My partners not right fussed but if I tell him to feel him he will put his hand on my stomach but he doesn’t have the patience to wait 😂 This is his 3rd child whilst it’s my first so I’m more enthusiastic than him 😂

My husband is the same. Gets bored waiting for the baby to move 🤣 just not overly interested and was the same with our first. I wouldn't worry about it at all!! My husband is an amazing dad, totally besotted with our little one xx

My partner won’t touch the bump either, he said it makes him feel claustrophobic 😂 this is our third and he’s not felt any of them really, maybe once or twice but that’s it 😅

Yeah my husband isn't bothered either! He said the moving weirds him out so he doesn't want to see or feel it and he's not bothered by talking to bump either 🤷🏻‍♀️ I knew it from the begining so I wasn't expecting him to be fully in to it whilst I'm carrying bubba but I know it'll be different when they are here 🥰 xx

Mine was like that on my first pregnancy - freaked him out a bits but this time he’s much more comfortable

Ahh this has made me feel soooo much better!! Thank you so much everyone 💛
