...has your man been more or less attentive towards you? My bloke turns his back on me in bed at night and I have to ASK him to roll over and give me a cuddle/kiss! We haven't been intimate in weeks and we don't even kiss each other properly anymore...considering we've only been together 5 months I didn't think we'd end up like that so soon! Is this normal? Are you all finding your men to be more loving towards you or less now you're pregnant?

My OH can't do enough for me. I get breakfast in bed every morning, and if I so much as think about bending or lifting he's in there taking over. I keep reminding him that I'm pregnant, not elderly!
It's lovely though. He keeps cuddling my tummy and talking to our little bean (even telling him/her/them off when I'm feeling really rough!). We've always been very touchy-feely with each other though, and different blokes react in different ways. He does sound a tad uncaring TBH

I havnt even washed the dishes since i found out, he's done everything. He hoovers every morning, does all the dishes, cooks and runs to the shop, does the litter tray and picks up cat poo from the garden. I do sod all! I did try dusting one day but I was a bit dizzy, oh i did clean the bathroom myself, but thats been all!
He even sleeps on the futon so i can have a good nights sleep cos sometimes i cant bare the smell of him if he's eaten something that sets me off, namely cheese doritos and pizza. Or if he's bunged up snoring, he'll sleep in another room. He'll tuck me in with throws on the sofa too, he cant do enough and never complains!
Mind you see when the babies born, it'll be me doing everything then!

Ahhh well my patience is wearing thin now... I've had awful sickness and hardly left the flat since being pregnant due to it! I'm tired and feel rough and exhausted all the time...if he has to cook for us and wash the dishes so what?! When my energy comes back I'll do my bit and I'll be the one looking after our baby when he's at work all day!
Must admit mines been the same, very loving and caring, kisses my bump when he gets home from work etc.
He gets even more affectionate as my bump gets bigger and finds me more attractive sexually now im pregnant, dont know why lol. We've only been together 7 months.
He sounds like a nightmare xx

Tell him you'll probably have so much more energy soon and its hard work making a baby, some women have a much tougher time than others (you can tell him from me it does feel like an illness!)
I've asked my bloke why he acts the way he does and he says he doesn't do sympathy... I don't WANT sympathy! I want a caring, attentive and loving boyfriend who wants to cuddle me and be affectionate with me! If it's gonna be like this am I not better off on my own?!
Sometimes with my partner, i think that now i am pregnant that he does want to know me or the baby, which i know is completely untrue we love each other to bits and i think he is getting used to the idea that he is going to be a daddy and he said to me that he dont feel any different towards me, hes just getting used to the idea...
plus in the bed he always turns the other way to me cos he is comfortable and he can sleep better facing outwards in the bed... im sure thats wat it is ladies is that he is more comfortable

I think i got lucky when i got my other half.. hes lush.. Always doing stuff for me.. going and getting me drinks even if im nearer to the kitchen.. making me hot water bottles.. etc.. i keep telling him im not lame.. but he still does it.. aaaw.. but i also think its cos ive trained him up well..
Could you tell your other half how you feel?

You poor thing, sounds like you are having a horrible time of it!!!!!
Hopefully as you get bigger and bigger he will realise that you need help with things.
Perhaps he is worried to get intimiate with you as doesn't want to hurt you or perhaps worries that you won't want to with him.
