Ditto, Sesa. I think mine gets weirded out. I think he prefers to think of her as fully formed, just tiny. Any of the week by weeks reminds him that it is not like that.
That is funny.. Mine doesn't want the details but would LOVE to feel her move. Granted, he might change his mind when he actually feels it. My luck, that will weird him out too and he wont touch me for the remaining 4.5 months.....

With mine, it's not even that he doesn't want to know about it, he is just indifferent. It doesn't bother me too much, I guess... Everyone I talk to about it tells me that a woman becomes a mother when she finds out she is pregnant, and a man becomes a father when he holds his child.
Sesa: That is true. After I delivered my first baby - when I was with my first husband - he said " Now I see him as his own person, before I just thought of him as an extention of you, like an arm or a leg". I had no idea he felt that way. He came from a large family and I just thought his indifference was due to the expectation that - of course, we would have a family right away - it wasn't anything special. It was probably part that and also not being able to really wrap his head around it. I remember it being very frustrating.
Re: Your pregnancy this week
Yeah, but dh doesn't like feeling the baby move. It freaks him out.
LOL DH's friend is like that! He says it reminds him of 'Aliens' and he wants no part of it!
