How excited is your husband?


Is it normal for men to be so excited when their wives are pregnant? My husband basically hangs out at the baby shops and keeps buying stuff. The store assistants are already on first name basis with him and keeps teasing him. He cooks food for me then freezes it for when he has to go to work,so that I dont have to cook food. He says he is just making sure that I eat properly. I have to say I am really quite surprised by this kind of behaviour. I always thought men were not really interested in the pregnancy stuff...

Aww thats so sweet!

My OH is pretty excited but I dont think he'd ever go out on his owna nd buy something. He always likes to read how junior is developing and stuff though. He likes talking to it and feeling it kick. I think in some ways he's more excited than me.

That is so awesome. DH isn't overly excited. He's happy, yes, but he's not getting worked up over it or anything.

Sometimes, i think more excited than me!! he kisses bub night everynight before we go to sleep and kisses it good morning every morning before he goes to work. then other times, its like he doesnt care!!!

men say women are hard to understand! i think they're just as complicated, if not more!!!

You ladies have some lovely hubbies!

Mine is quite happy and excited, but definitely does not shop by himself! He has a whole bunch of fun shopping for baby, but I have to be with him.

As for the cooking and freezing food-- get your DH to talk to mine.. maybe mine can learn something lol
