need to talk & need help pls :(

I am 28 weeks preg & ftm.. new in UK & a house wife. Its my husband's 2nd marriage & he lost his infant daughter from first wife. Now m preg with a baby girl & he doesn't take part in any parental activity with interest thinking that he doesn't want to built expectations so earlier. Though its my 1st marriage n a kid. M excited but I feel alone in this exp at times.
I became so emotional n sensitive.. it hurts when I have to suppress my feelings of expressing excitement for the baby, as he isn't much concerned. MOREOVER!!! I only have in laws here no friend n no one from my family :'( i feel so depress living alone all day at home. N it causes headache even :-( in few days his parents are coming at our place & I will miss my family n friends more...

What should I do????? Pls help or give suggestion.

Yeah I often call them but that doesn't help now much. Cause I can't explain or share all of what I feels, thinking, that it will make them worried for me. As they are in Pakistan.
I don't even go out much as my husband is busy each day in his job n my in laws have their own life also they don't care much for how I am surviving .. so doesn't have any friend around yet. I found this medium interesting & felt like sharing my feelings.

Awww, I'm down in Devon. Try and stay positive,  there's so many people you can talk to here. Can you phone your family and friends?  That may help too xx

Don't let anyone, including your husband steal your joy in your baby. If he doesn't want to be happy, you can't make him, buy don't let that stop you.

Maybe his parents can help him get excited. He just doesn't want to get attached and lose another baby. Just keep being positive.
