only have three weeks to go and he still does not know my right due date.

3rd child but even still its not like he has to remember a lot else.

i am kind of working of two due dates as i think my scan dates were a bit out but even so he should bloody well know what date his baby is due should he not?

btw i am not pissed of in a weepy pathetic way i really could rip his head of and stick it up his arse, i bet if i told him we could start having sex 5 times a day from the date i am due he would bloody remember then

at the sex 5 times a day suggestion. Men are crap at remembering dates IME. We have 2 DDs but DH struggles with their dates of birth......even though he was there both times!

Have you written it on your calendar in big scary red letters?

Lol, it could be denial.

I was all for my husband saying we had loads of time before the baby arrived when I was only four months pregnant.

However, he was still saying it when I had 2 weeks to go!

We have four and he probably wouldn't bew able to give all their birth dates.

Also, last year he text his best mate to ask when our anniversary was, lol!!!

Agree with writing it on the calendar in BIG letters, then he definately won't forget. Good luck. x

I was shocked when my DH knew the due date this time and even how many weeks I was pregnant (well close). Also DC3 - he hasnt had a clue on the others.

He cannot remember DD and DS's birthdays for the life of him though

southcoastmum - at the risk of having my head ripped off may I gently remind you that you do not know your due date either.

I am sure DH knows roughly when it is but there is no use stressing over when the birth will happen exactly because it is unlikely to be on the theoretical due date.

His job is to stay relaxed and supportive and he is doing a fine job.

I am with Abetadad.

With dd my date changed all the time anyway and it got to the point that I forgot what the date was anyway.

DD was born 2 weeks later than the last date in any case.

It is just a nominal number.

HOWEVER being pregnant you can be as unreasonable as you like. Get your DP to make you a cup of tea on pain of death.
