Dad-to-be's creating more stress than needed...

anyone else have problems with the dad to be not being understanding? my fiance has cut me off as i walked out yesterday when he told me to leave if i wasnt gonna let him have his way.. now he refuses to talk to me.. we're on day two.. i wonder if it will ever work out.. i just hope i dont stress too much.

Re: Dad-to-be's creating more stress than needed...

  • If I may ask, what does he mean to letting him have his way?

     

  • wow, sounds like my fiance. He keeps psyching himself out about having a baby and in turn, stressing me out. Keep trying to talk to him. Open communication is the only way this will get better.

  • Marriage is hard - and while I DO NOT think that you have to be married to be good parents, there are things that you go throuh in your first year of marriage (a committment to eachother, if you will) that strengthen your relationship.

    Having a baby is also a committment - your first one together after the engagement (which we all know for some has been just a pretty ring with empty promises.)

    What I am saying is that these things are all mushed together right now - having a baby, committing to eachother, money, living situations, stress, etc.

    Men take longer to get used to the idea of any life change - marriage, baby, etc. I don't know your circumstances and I don't pretend to, but give it some time. Put yourself in his shoes - this is a BIG change that he knows is looming, but likely just has some pictures and a blood test to prove to him so far that he is going to be a daddy...
