My husband

I guess this is me venting  but my husband drives like a maniac!! He isn't in any position to be speeding or being reckless especially with me in the car. Within the past year he has managed to get 11 points in his license. But no d.u.i's thank god but he doesn't really drink so I'm not worried about that. But he does have to spend 3 days in jail to wipe his record clean. And being how he is thee only one bringing in the money in our house at the moment I'm relying on him. Which is what he wanted. But, now he is begging me to get a job. Which I been wanting but, unfortunately I can't work until after the baby. And he won't even touch me!! I got out of the shower with just my bra and  underwear on and laid on the bed  and he just watched some movie and he was texting  someone and I look over his shoulder and it said mom. I was in complete disgust!!! He would rather talk to "mom" than make love or even cuddle.. I don't know what to do at this point. I love my  son to death and I can't wait til he is here. My world revolves around him. I just wish my husband would feel the same. His son  is inside me. So I figured he'd be protective and want to be around me. But no right now there is a total of 3 feet between us as we sleep.. What do I do ladys. Please help me.

Don't set yourself up by expecting your husband to get all gushy because you're carrying his baby.  A lot of times men don't know how they even feel about upcoming fatherhood, and don't get enthused about the baby until it begins to talk.  Sorry, but that's just a man thing.  The good news is that they do eventually get enthused (unless, of course, they were shanghaied into parenthood) and once they do get happy about it, they stay happy about it.

I don't understand it. I thought maybe it was just my hormones and me wanting it more. But now I feel ugly and no where near attractive now that I'm 6 months pregnant and huge! :(

I'm in a similar boat. I text hubby some not hard to understand things I wanted to do and he said sorry I was watching tv. :( i only get some when he wants it. If I try to initiate it he shuts me down.
