I don`t think it`s as `real` for some men as it is for others. and it certainly isn`t as real for them as it is for us. I`ve basically picked out everything for the baby, ordered everything, decorated her room and worried over the details while my hubby sort of `does what I ask him to do` like hang curtains or help put together the crib. I think they just don`t sweat the details like we do.

Keep nagging him. I am so glad I did. Finally got my husband to pitch in along with my father and my fIL. I was 27 weeks when I got the rooms all fixed, and guess what so glad I did because at 32 weeks I ended up having my daughter. I didn`t make it to my baby shower, but the room was all set and when I did eventually have the shower, I was able to add more to the room. My baby was in the NICU for about a month, so I still had time to work up the room.

i dont know why he would say you are using him. thats a bit insensitive. youre doing your part carrying the child. he needs to do his part. you cant physically do things you used to be able to do. he is going to have to step up and do it. the house needs to be safe and ready for baby as once baby arrives you will not have any time to do anything at all. maybe he doesnt realize this. id tell his mom on him lol. i know that sounds funny but i would. my partners mother loves me and would totally lay into him if he wasnt keeping up his duties lol. i dont know maybe youre husband feels unapprieciated. i would make a huge deal over things when he does help and see if it motivates him to do more. its not like you have alot of time. baby can be here any time. ugh. why are men so difficult =/

honestly i really went lazy with my dh the last month of my pregnancy. i think it was that as much as we relly wanted or baby we knew that once our son arrived that there were quite a few things we wouldn`t have time to do anymore so we soaked it up while we could lol

Well some days he is so helpful but others he just tunes out the world. I donno. My hubby was doing tons for me at 28 weeks too. I feel like he is overwealmed by the responsibility of what`s about to hit and is taking these last few weeks as his last shot at freedom or something. He is usually a great guy and i hate to even talk bad about him. This is just so out of the ordinary and it is really frustrating...
