How does your OH feel about feeling the baby move?

[x-kirsty-x]

Last night we were chilling out and I was rubbing my bump and I could feel part of LO sticking out Not sure which bit it was but anyway, I told OH to have a feel and it really really freaked him out, he went all pale and said he felt sick bless him

Im used to feeling it constantly so I cant imagine what its like for him but I just hope he realises theres an actual baby in there, theres no going back now

my DH dosnt like feeling my bump although he kisses it every day (bless him) and if I can see it moving and tell him to look he'll look for a second and then turn away!!! he's constantly asking if baby kicking and if I say yes he gets a big grin, he just dosnt like touching it!!!

Mine doesnt seem interested in the moving at all, occasionally i just grab his hand and hold it there.

i cant wait for bits of baby to stick out as i cant recognise it atm,between foot and hand or bottom. when baby kicks he wouldnt beelive me at first so i told him to look at belly and he was amazed by it. he touches belly every now and again and babys not moving but as soon as he takes hand off baby moves

the more and more the weeks go on im sure this babys a girl for sure

My Oh is fine but at mums other day and tummy was just jumping and jerking cos babs thinks he's auditioning for riverdance, i pull my top up and my mum is like oh so cute then my dad looked and was like I thought he was gonna be sick

OH is always fascinated watching my tummy move. The feet are always on my right-hand side and often you can see a lump protruding which is obviously a foot! But when baby has a good old stretch or wriggle it looks like a scene from Alien!!!

I miss the little kicks I used to get at 20 weeks!!

Our LO is like yours enn, it's hard for OH to catch him moving as he seems quite happy stopping once Daddy's hand is on the bump
Though one morning in bed while cuddling OH he was kicking hard for a while and OH said ooooooooh my back hurts a bit now if only he knew what it was like from the other side, men are so funny sometimes
Think OH would like to feel more but LO is just too clever at stopping when he touches at the mo

i think it frightened him a bit at first, but now he loves it he's always holding his hands or ear on my tummy (usually LO stays still tho and he gets impatient!) i told him about the little games i play when LO sticks out a foot or elbow and he went "aawww!"

My OH doesnt like anything to do with pregnancy or babies
I forced him to feel her hiccups tho.. They are only small movements so they didnt scare him as much Wuss.

Wish i had a baby mad OH Just want someone to share with but he doesnt even like hearing about it
Sorry for the downer

i know how ya feel! my oh is very funny about baby programmes and feeling my bump and stuff like that. i know he loves the baby to bits but i think we sometimes just have to except that men are wired differently to us.
we get excited over completely different things. although he isn't into the whole pregnancy thing i know he will be a great dad when isaiah shows up!

my bf doesnt rly seem interested, i just grab his hand n put it where its kickin lol, but he doesnt have a long attention span and soon pulls away, but he always kisses and talks to the bump lol

my OH love it.. he can't get enough sometimes he looks at me with his month wide open and his eye wide and say WOW! is that her

but sometimes it makes me think WOW too, that my baby



i wish i could tell bits of her body tho when she stick out

My OH and i were in bed last night and baby was wriggling away. my OH put his hand on my tummy to feel. He was blown away by what he felt as baby was really moving . I think that he is always taken aback as most days baby actually stops moving when his Daddy puts his hand on my tummy. Its like s/he knows.

Hi

Bernie likes feeling LO move but usually as soon as he puts his hand on for a feel he stops kicking
