how do i make him understand??

I am pg with my 3rd an my bfs 1st an it is so hard for me to let him know what is going on because it seems like he don't care as to what I have to say. I have a severe form of morning sickness that requires me to take medication in order to keep things down. I think he thinks its just a game. I have two toddlers from a previous relationship and he has been there since.my 20month old was 2months old. Is it my horomones that maybe pushing him away, is he scared, help me plz I feel so lost right now. I have no family where I live no friends no one I'm home 24/7 with my kids never a break I need advice plz I'm losing my mind.

Thanks ladies its nice to know I'm not the.only one.  A man that totally understands what we are going through would be nice, but unlikely these days. My bf is afraid to go n2 the delivery room for some reason an Wat seems funny to me is that I'm still n my 1st trimester an he's already made up his mind hopefully I can talk him n2 going n the room with me if not I hope my sister from outa state comes up. My last 2deliveries she tried to b here for me because I had no one else.  An about keeping the kids outa the bathroom while us Prego women party it up at the toliet I try an lock my bathroom door so all I hear is banging on door with the word MOM every few seconds.

Yeah I dnt think my hubby actually felt sypmathy until I was in labor. My epidural wore off and I was in soo much pain and cryin and tryin to breath and he just stood there white as a sheet in the face. He had no clue what to do..lol

I totally relate to all of you guys. Its so frustrating that guys just seem to think that pregnancy is SO easy. Its probably because of all of the joy thats related to it in movies and with people touching your belly and babyshowers. I dont think they really consider it to be hard. So they just act like we're being lazy or something. I really hope our hubbies come around and become more compassionate. Otherwise they'll probably have another thing comin! lol

My first bd was in the bathroom rubbing my back as I threw up(even though I didn't want him to touch me) and I was sick all day every day. He cleaned when I couldn't, and had no prob getting me what I needed. My bf now would tell me I'm the laziest person he knew, but now just comes home and cleans and when I do get sick, he doesn't acknowledge it unless I come out with my face beat red..then he just kind of stares at me. It makes me so aggravated bc he could at least ask if I was ok or keep the kids occupied so they don't walk in on me! Some guys just really don't understand and can't sympathize

I know how ya feel. I'm preggo w my third. O stay home too with my 10mnth old. I have a 7 yr old as well. No family or friends here. It *****!! My 1st wasn't my hubbys and when when we had our first child he had no sympothy for me at all. I guess he thought I was jst havin fun throwin up and feelin like crap all the time! But just give em sum time and I'm sure he will come around:))
