Need advice

So my partner got his new job and has a new friend a girl one whom i think he often talks to. According to my partner that girl gave birth last december 2014 via csection to her 3rd child. I know it's out of my concern but my partner seems like he's been asking and relying too much on that girl when it comes to pregnancy topics. It really pisses me off. Now i don't feel like talking to him anymore. I hate to think that he talks alot to that girl about pregnancy when in fact he knows that i have this kind of app on my phone that he could rely too and plus he can text my dr if he really want to know something. I don't know if i should be bothered by that or it's just me and my hormones. Ughhh!!! I really wanna cry right now but he's infront of me): ): ):

The positive point is that he wants to grow and learn and IS INTERESTED. I know it's normal to feel insecure especially when pregnant but he is talking about things that have to do with you and your little further family.  Plus, it's normal to talk about common life topics to pass time at work. Stay confident. :-)

My husband did this too but in all honesty its a good thing cuz obviously he's thinking about u and that's just something they talk about cuz its something they have in common at the moment, prob just passing time. I wouldn't stress over it. Its easier for some ppl to learn or hear things from other ppls mouths then to go research it.

Thank you ladies! I guess i should prepare my self to talk to him later. That's what i worry about lately that if i open this topic to him he might not tell me again what he and his officemate talks about. But still im gonna give it a shot. Hope everything turns out well.

Maybe hes just really excited about the arrival of ur child? Try talking to him without being too fustrated and let him know how its making you feel and try looking for info together. Maybe even buy him one of them pregnancy books for dads. Try not to be too mad to get ur point across because thats just gna make him not tell u what he discusses with his female friend.

COMMUNICATION IS KEY! You should definitely tell your partner how you feel. I take that this is your first child.. Both of you should be able to enjoy this together. Maybe you could research things together as a team when one of you has a question. That way both gets answers annnnnnd a little bit of quality time also :)
