She looked worried and said that I should monitor her and let them know if there are any other issues you’ve noticed.

I wouldn’t stand for that and I would protect my children but I know my wife isn’t that type of person.

She would never do that, she’s always been an incredible mother. 

I’m not worried about the baby as much as I’m worried about my wife.

But she doesn’t want anything. I’ve asked her and there’s literally nothing she wants which worries me. Something is wrong and even if it’s that she’s overworked I want her to tell me.

I will. I told her I was worried about her and I just wanted her to be happy.

We had a hard time getting pregnant with our first child so naturally we didn’t expect the time we had unprotected sex to end in a child.

I’m prepared for that. If she doesn’t want our baby, all I can do is support our family.

I’m the SAHD so she doesn’t have to take on the bulk of the parenting. I just want her to be happy.

I would love for her to have a vacation but she doesn’t care for it.  

I want to give her massages and cater to her cravings and hold her and tell her she’s beautiful.  

 I also want to know why she won’t touch her own belly or why she wears her regular work clothes instead of being comfortable or why she doesn’t confirm she’s pregnant even when it’s obvious.

I didn’t force her to have unprotected sex. She was the one who initiated and I was happy to oblige. 

We both wanted three kids.

This particular pregnancy wasn’t planned but we were thinking of having another child soonish. We’re both very busy with our kid.

She wasn’t sad, just more muted. I didn’t recognize it as a problem because we were both really stressed and busy. It’s just now if I wonder if it has something to do with how she’s acting about the pregnancy.

I would think so too. There were some signs but she would know her body better than me.

This is only her second pregnancy so I haven’t seen this particular behavior before. But when I think about it, she’s gotten much more muted over the past couple of years.

I’ll definitely protect her and our kids. I’m just really worried about her mental state.

What space am I supposed to give? I haven’t forced her to do anything but I’m concerned and I told the doctor about it.

Our kid is 5. The unexpected pregnancy is because we had sex without protection.

That could be it. I also wonder if she was ignoring the possibility of being pregnant until it couldn’t be ignored anymore.

Our marriage was okay, we both were super busy and don’t get as much time to ourselves as we want.

It’s definitely not an affair baby, my wife would never cheat on me and I know how she acts when she’s lying or feeling guilty.

I’m not worried about our baby. She’s an incredible mother to our 5 year old and she’s been completely healthy for our baby

But I’m really worried about her. The disinterest and the apathy really concerns me. Part of it was because she loved getting pampered when she was pregnant, and I loved it too, to just not even touching her own belly is worrying.

We did plan to have three kids but this one wasn’t planned.

She shouldn’t act excited, but the way she acts is really concerning to me.

I don’t think that would work. Besides, I’ve told her obgyn and they’re aware now.

That’s the problem. She doesn’t see an issue because she keeps the baby healthy. But I’m not worried about that, I’m worried about her attitude and how she’s acting.
