I am 37 weeks pregnant, and ever since I've gotten further along in my pregnancy my husband has become pretty scarce. He comes home from work and either goes straight to bed or a buddy of his will come over and they'll take of to go hunting or fishing or something. And that leaves me home, alone, almost all the time. I feel like I want to pull my hair out! I hate being by myslef so much. And everytime I talk to him about it all he has to say is your crazy I dont do that. But he does and I'm scared he'll continue to do it after our son is born next week. He told me that he was just trying to have all his fun before the baby got here!! What about me?? He rarely ever invites me to go with him, and when he does ask me its usually when I am unable to go bc of prior obligations. Any advice? I'm going to be a first time mom and I'm scared he wont be around to help me like I know I'll need him to be!!

Think of the baby before you go into depressive mood. Be cheerful. Because You have decide to have the baby and for the sake of the baby dont do anything untoward. I am sure once the baby is born everything will be allright.God bless you.

I could never imagine doing anything to hurt my lil one. I have just been lost as to why he is acting this way. We planned this pregnancy. I watched my ovulation calendar and we succeeded on the second month. I want to know that hes going to be there for our son, but since I've gotten pregnant its like he dont want to be around me. And he doesnt talk to me about he jus gets upset and says that what I am saying is untrue. But thank you for your response

Dont worry. Maybe its the anxiety which is making him do what he is doing now. Once the baby comes everything is going to be alright. take care.God blesws u

It is normal for him to be acting this way. Just relax. You will both be good parents

I've heard much about your story. There's one question you need to ask yourself many times...Do you really love this man and willing to sacrifice? If YES, don't complain...sooner or later, he will realize how precious my wife is? Just be the perfect YOU as always. Nothing much to worry but take good care of yourself and your coming baby. If NO, then there's nothing to wait. Star a new life without him. The world is all yours. Choose the best for you and your baby. Afterall, your happiness depend on you.
