I am pregnant with my second baby which is my partner's first. We found out just before Christmas and since then he has been acting very strange. We barely talk, he has an attitide, doesn't seem interested in the pregnancy at all and can be very insulting. I'm not sure as to why he's being this way. I know this is his first baby but he has been around my first son since he was 13 months old. PLEASE HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND WHY HE IS BEING THIS WAY...

He may still be coming to terms with the pregnancy and being a father. Takes guys longer to get their head around the responsibility of being a parent and he might be freaking out because of that.
No excuse for being offensive though. I would give him a stern talking to about his selfish attitude then try include him in some baby related activities. Some ideas - take him to your antenatal appointments, take him shopping for baby stuff, enroll in an antenatal class (I know you would have learnt that stuff first pregnancy but it'll be really valuable for him), show him the week by week pregnancy charts which show baby's development.

What she said.

My hubby was happy but nervous when we were pregnant with our first. So i took him shopping and we started picking things out and he loved that. And when the baby kick for the first time he started to cry and did the same when we where pregnant with our second.

Just talk to your partner even if he doesn't say anything just say that you want him to come with you to do this or that. That he going to be amazing father.

They feel alittle left out like they don't know what they have to do. But trust me when baby arrives they become almost normal again.

Its hard for dads to understand at first what you are going through when you are pregnant. I found that when I was pregnant with our first my husband i think struggled to feel like a part of it until later in the pregnancy like when he could feel the baby move and stuff. Its so hard to believe its real even for the mum sometimes but the fathers dont get an active role until the baby is born. I also found that my husband became a lot more excited once he found out the sex of the baby. I think it just made it a bit more real and he was able to think a bit more about what our future would look like with this child in it. If I were you I would just ask him about it and ask if there is anything you can do to help him feel more a part of it.
Hope this helps.
