Ye my husband would never touch my belly, he just always said it was weird

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. It’s such a special moment. Have you asked him why he thinks it’s gross? Or is it more so he finds it weird? Are you showing? Regardless I don’t really think he should be saying things like that? Maybe have a chat to him about it? You could mention that baby will respond to his voice and touch and start creating a bond / recognise dad? I’m on my third baby and even with the first one hubby would rub my belly, talk to baby, and every night he comes and spoons me with his hand protectively on my belly.

@Sharnee I am showing yes, he just says it grosses him out. He’s been very reluctant to accept this pregnancy but a bit better now but won’t get involved with learning things or pregnancy symptoms etc

I'm sorry you're experiencing that, my now ex partner was the same, we weren't even allowed to talk about baby without him looking like he wanted to run, he ended up leaving us at 8 months pregnant. I can only suggest drip feeding him information/no pressure but again, he should be supportive, this is a special time. Sending support your way x

@Lauren I’m only 20 I don’t think I can do it on my own. 😟😟
