Hii
Hope everyone doing well just really need advice currently 8months pregnant and feeling down at the moment. My child’s dad isn’t really being supportive and acting strange towards me in a sense he’s hasn’t come to any of my scans appointments with me kept saying will see how things go.. I have one this Friday I’ve told him a month in advance and been reminding him he told me his free and will come, today I spoken to him and he said he’s work place ain’t giving him the time off. I’ve been looking at prams and showed him a few I liked and what he thinks he replied I should look tell him what I decided but this was when I was about 6months so I had to keep reminding him ,time is getting closer we need to start preparing stuff, last month he only given me £100 towards the pram we both agreed on one which is £600 he said he’ll give the remaining this month but hasn’t mentioned anything. I just feel sad like I’ve been buying clothes for the baby by my self brought a cot just feel so alone. He thinks messaging me asking me how I am makes a difference only seen him once this month but feels as though he doesn’t want to be around me or seen with me. Before when I would ask to see him he’ll make it a big fuss like I’m bothering him

Sometimes it’s hard for men to feel attached or involved when it’s not the one carrying them
my hubby has admitted that to me , hard for him to get excited but I try to find ways to involve him like maybe let him pick out the baby’s first cuddly toy or let him buy the books he wants to read to the baby once here

Thank you for your reply much appreciated & I really do understand men can feel that way but with him he wouldn't even choose anything just wants me to do the choosing, doesn't want to participate, doesn't want his own mum to know about baby said"my sisters pregnant don't want to tell her about this one yet" which does not make any sense to me we're both in our 30s he's got kids from previous relationship and so do I so I don't understand but only time will tell
