  Just tell him what you feel directly.

  Okay me & my boyfriend just find out we are preggers.. We live in separate houses at the moment.
  Idk if I’m being some type of way but my last text
  to him was around 3:07pm… he doesn’t text me back until I text him at 9:27pm.. then tells me an old friend stopped by n they went out to casino… then said  I’m acting childish for getting mad… I guess I just would’ve like if he communicated n told me earlier.. rather than later that his friend stopped by n that they were going out. It’s the lack of communication. I don’t care what he is doing it’s just he didn’t text me for 6 hours only
  until I snapped. Idk.. is it me overreacting or would some of u ladies feel the same??? 

  
  

  Communication is key in a relationship, especially with a new pregnancy. The lack of communication for 6 hours, only responding after you reached out, would understandably make you feel concerned or upset.

  
  

  Even if he was just with an old friend, letting you know sooner would have helped reassure you and avoided any unnecessary worry or assumptions on your part.

  
  

  Dismissing your feelings as "childish" is not a constructive response. Your emotions are valid, especially with the added stresses of a pregnancy.

  
  

  While going to the casino may not have been an issue, the lack of timely communication is the real problem here. Many women in your situation would likely feel the same way.

  
  

  The healthiest approach would be for your boyfriend to acknowledge your perspective, apologize for the lack of communication, and work with you to improve how you both share information, plans and feelings going forward. This will be crucial as you navigate the pregnancy and parenthood together.

  
  

  The key is finding a way to have an open, non-judgmental dialogue about your needs and perspectives. With empathy and compromises on both sides, you can work through this in a productive manner. I hope you two are able to have that conversation soon.

  Sometimes guys don't realize how much these things matter, especially now when communication is even more important for you both. Maybe just let him know how it makes you feel, without it sounding like a criticism. This way, he’ll understand that a quick text can really mean a lot and make you feel more connected. Hang in there, and remember, you're not alone in feeling this way.
