Was your partner very hands on/interested whilst you were pregnant?

[KIQFTM]

Just wondered, did you partner take a fascinated interest in every aspect of your pregnancy?

Have a few friends also pregnant atm and their partners are either buying and reading books on the subject or saying that they can't wait for the baby to be here etc. These are all first timers, I'm on my second, partner's 1st. And, er, my partner hasn't done any of these things. Is treating it like an abstract concept amt I think. Also, think he sees me as the "professional" just because I've done it before?

Is this boding badly for the future or is this very normal behaviour? I'm not seriously over anxious about it, more curious and a bit of reassurance that lots of men are like this would be nice.

Thanks

No - not really - he would never read a book about it and the though of all these "tips for dads" and "what Dad can do to help at this stage" would make him laugh! He always comes to the scans - but NO other antenatal (unless i am concerned about something - eg. couldnt feel the baby kick so he came with me to be monitored) Basically as long as things are progressing normally he leaves it to me....
