I swear my husband is bipolar

I made a post the other day about my husband wanting me to have an abortion and how I'm completely torn on what to do.. well, a few nights ago, we had a "talk" which was mostly him talking and me not really giving much. Somehow that was enough for him to just be happy and feel satisfied again and me feeling the same. The next morning he asks "am I allowed to change my mind on the situation?" Like?????? How do you completely fucking 180 and say it's cut and dry. Like how the fuck do you go from 100% wanting me to have an abortion to wanting to keep it?? I asked him why he changed his mind and I'm still left confused as to what happened. He's been acting all happy and talking about the pregnancy like normal and I'm just so fucking mad at him. I slept for 2 days straight because I was so depressed and stressed out over things, felt numb and shut off for a week, still completely unsure about what to do, and he's walking around like nothing happened??? And he expects me to do the same fucking thing???? I was mad at him before and now I'm even more mad and confused. I literally don't know what to do, what to say to him, or how to act at this point. The main reason i was so scared in the beginning is because I knew how he was going to react, but a week later he switches it up like it's fine it's normal. Why the fuck couldn't he have just been like this from the fucking beginning?? It would've made the experience a lot happier and less anxious. I'm so annoyed with him.

As someone who is bipolar, I can assure you that’s not the case. He likely just can’t handle what’s going and come to terms with it. I read your other post when you posted it and that’s more so what it seems like. And you being the woman, of course it’s going to piss you off and that’s totally understandable. I think you need to do what you feel is best for you and your body/mental health. He is your HUSBAND. He laid down with you and he knew what could happen. He will step up and if he doesn’t then you’re better off for it

It seems like he didn’t know how to react to the situation and now has come to terms with it. I know I change my mind sometimes and it frustrates my husband, but I have a lot of thinking I do sometimes going in circles and I obviously just want what’s best, come to a fast choice but then the more I think about it I will decide something else. Maybe he now realizes how precious this gift of pregnancy is and that he shouldn’t let fear get in the way

Bipolar is not a good word for someone who changes their mind. It’s got completely different symptoms than what most people think of when they say bipolar. Secondly, he is an individual too and what you guys do affects his life a lot. I’m sure there are plenty of women who think they want an abortion and then change their mind. At the end of the day tho it’s your body your choice and if you do want to keep it then I would just try to find some understanding and try to shake it off and let it go. Then you guys can come back together and prepare for the new life. Staying angry and resentful isn’t going to bring you the happiness you deserve. Congratulations on the pregnancy girl it’s going to all work out! Prayers for an easy pregnancy and delivery.
