anxious dads to be with odd behaviour?

[kirlykird]

hi ladies..

Just wondering if any of you have men who are acting rather strangely in the run up to birth day?

My DF has started waking up in the night every night and walking around the bedroom,to the door, back to the bed, messing about with his laptop, looking for things and generally acting panicky all in his sleep

The strange thing though that is spooking me out now is that this happens every night between 2 and 2.30am and the time thing is really starting to freak me

I am thinking that it is prob the anxiety of a new baby pending but wondered if anyone elses partners are acting strangely in the run up to the birth?

OH has been ok, he is a lot more clingy though, ringing more when he is out at work for no real reason.

in laws have become very clingy in this last few weeks. which doesn't bother me so much as OH!!

Awwww bless! C is just ready for it all to be over and done with, he hates the waiting and the not knowing when is it going to happen etc.

He says he just wants to wrap me up in cotton wool and leave me at home ll day (bless) he is more attentive, and opens the car door for me now, and also help me in and out as the car is quite low so I sometimes struggle to pull myself out the seat I feel so stooooopid not being able to get in and out the car sometimes

Hi girls,
my other half is totally the other way. He finds it realy hard to deal with the fact that i have a baby inside me that moves (he was like this last time.) Also he won't discuss anything to do with actually having the baby. He isn't horrible or anything and is really looking forward to having him here he just can't deal with how he gets here (if that makes sense)!!!!
Its a good job I am having another section because I don't think he would be able to cope with a natural delivery.

My husband isn't sleeping well either! But yes that's a bit freaky with the time thing!!! Mine has just got the nesting thing instead of me!! He finished decorating our stairs and landing at the weekend and fully decorated our bedroom yesterday!! He's starting on the bathroom tomorrow!! I'm not complaining though it's all needed doing for ages now!! The only problem is he wont let me help!!! I feel so useless!!
