I dont feel love from my husband

We fight alot more. He barely touches me. Im 6 months and I can count the amount of times he has hugged me since my belly started to pop out. I have to force him to touch my belly when the baby is moving and he complains. Saying that I bother him. Im married 2 kids and I always feel alone. Everything is my fault and im just tired of feeling this way. I have tried talking to him but he wont budge. Any other ladys relationship has turned for the worse since there pregnancy?

Sometimes guys just handle things different. My husband isn't into feeling the baby etc.... this is my third. I stopped asking him to feel the baby move or talk about names etc. He is the best dad to our boys and as soon as baby is here is all about it. We aren't very intimate while I'm pregnant unless I initiate... but I have learned to look at it different. He helps with our kids, helps me with laundry and cooking. If it's a hard day for me, he goes out of his way to help out. He works overtime to be sure we have the financial means to support our family. Try not to compare him to other dad's or husbands. I did that at first, it hurt my feelings that he didn't talk to my baby or feel baby etc like my friends husbands. But when I saw his actions as his way of caring, it helped a lot. It also helped eliminate some arguments. I'm still an emotional mess so we do disagree but I try to really keep a control on my emotions for his sake. Lol

I feel the same way, but I think it's because your just overly sensitive when your pregnant. Try not posting attention to him, I'm sure he will make an effort if your not always trying to get his attention. Also, next time baby is moving just sit there and smile and say "wow baby is doing acrobats" I'm sure he will touch your stomach... but just breathe, and know your not alone.

I'm in the same boat and three months! It's like "ok we are having another one no need for intimacy anymore!" And I just got married three weeks ago!!!! It's been tough but I think if you just sit down with him and tell him how u feel and let him realize it is affecting you itll ease things up a bit. I wish u luck!

Date night really do help. My fiance and I get into so many arguments because I am in my feelings so much about things I would normally brush off. But at least once a week we have a date night or just spend a day together and talk. My favorite date is honestly to go to the lake and sit in the grass in the shade and have a picnic.

Just do things to make you happy. Like go to the movies, out to eat, mall shopping, swimming, hair salon and get out of the house. Remember being pregnant is temporary. Make him start see you happy regardless. Give him a reason to act concern. Guys sometimes are selfish & immature. Don't loose yourself at this time' if you have to take a walk on faith, then if its meant to be he will come back correct. Their is to much life out here to let the devil steal your joy! Avoid his stupidity besides your baby feels & hears everything inside of you. If you put your hands on your belly a baby can cry inside of you. You can feel the vibration.

I'm a single mother on my first pregnancy.  My baby daddy is my exfiancé, he was an *******. But, most you can do if you want the marriage to last is try and have like a little date night. And talk about things

Sorry you're feeling this way. I think it's somewhat normal for the man to feel disengaged during pregnancy. There's a really good Q&A on this from the Physicians Resource Council - bit.ly/1qu1AZ1. Hope that helps. Good luck!

I'm sorry to hear you're struggling. My husband has been having a hard time, I feel like he is more of an emotional wreck than I am. We just found out we're having twins. Today he said 'jokingly,' "I think I'm mad at you for wanting twins...I feel like you made it happen."  it made me mad but I looked at him and said "you really think I did this?" He constantly worries about everything from how he's going to pay student loans to buying a new car to fit two babies. His worrying stresses me out and makes it hard to put on a happy face when I feel like **** all day long. I said "we've got to take it one day at a time, it will be a blessing to have two healthy babies in the end" and he gets mad that I reminded him of the risk of multiple birth. Like him dumping all his stress on me doesn't make me think about how scary it could be. I'm tired of it. We fought for a minute then he just left, hopefully he'll get his **** together while he's gone. As for me, I'll just enjoy this by myself for now. I'm sure he'll apologize for losing it and I'll just tell him that I understand why he lost his cool... Like he's the pregnant one. At least we have somewhere to vent. Thanks for sharing momma, hope things will look up for you.
