Q: How does your partner react to baby in womb?

My husband isn't very talkative anyway. He doesn't say much in conversation. I try to get him to feel baby move. The first time he felt her move, it didn't like and said "it's an alien - jokingly" but still don't like to put hand on my stomach to feel possible movement. I can't get him to sit and watch my belly move when she is more active. He comments that he can wait when she comes out. Is this a common experience? and what do you do to try to get him to feel more comfortable. I think it is important for baby to hear the father. Any suggestions are welcomed.

I guess men will be well....men. Im sure they care and are just excited for baby as we women are but its different for them. While I am not suggesting you be with a woman (LOL) my female partner is very much involved and interesting in what baby is doing constantly. She's always touching my belly to feel him move, talking to him, and sings to him. She personally doesnt ever want to carry a baby, this is as close to pregnancy she will get. GL in your pregnancy and in due time Im sure your husbands sensitive side will emerge
