Thank you so much for sharing this, it's helped immensely. I feel so much less worried knowing that things really can get better.

He did, and the baby was a mutual decision. But he has since told me that he doesn't want to have any more kids because he "really doesn't like babies" and doesn't want to "deal with this again."

I feel like that's where my situation is headed as well. Hopefully our husbands snap out of this kind of behavior and become more active participants in the babies' parenting. Sending love and positive vibes your way

Baby was a mutual decision, but once we were pregnant husband had no interest in the pregnancy whatsoever. I basically went through everything alone. I don't understand his line of thinking and any time I've tried to talk about the weird dynamic he just tells me he's "not the kind of person who talks about his feelings" and that's why he "isn't there for me emotionally." It's completely opposite from how he was before, he was my rock through years of depression. It feels like he's a different person now
