Sharing Info With Daddy To Be

The father to be of my baby has been less than supportive. In our last conversation which was over email he said he still needed to "think". That was two weeks ago and I have not heard from him. I had a second ultrasound today and I was considering emailing him the new pictures but then I thought if he cared he would have contacted me by now. What does everyone think??

Be the better person and send him the fotos and give him updates. After all he is the father of your baby and at some point you did see positive qualities in him, enough so to enter a relationship with him. Good luck!!

I just want to apologize for your stiuation. Being pregnant is hard enough, without having to hold daddys hand as well. --------You can't force someone to be a part of your pregnancy and your babys life. *Lunamoo- being the better person has nothing to do with it. Shes already being a better person by accepting her responsibilty as a parent to be(not really by choice) and he needs to as well. what happens when the baby is born, and he wants nothing to do with it because he is "thinking"? What. He can be a dead beat dad, but it is still *rr6436's* responsibilty to keep him updated? Thats c___p. It takes two to tango, and he needs to step up and not be such a coward. Granted she did see something in him at one time, but people change, and not always for the best. There is a huge difference between fathering a child and donating sperm. And frankly, I don't think he is ready for the fathering part.

Well I did send him an email and gave him an update. I told him Iwasn't sure what he was expecting but that if he idd not want to receiveupdates he should tell me and I would not bother him again. He did not respond at all. I don't even know if he read the email. I don't want to but I'm starting to hate him and I will not contact him again for any reason.

rr6436, don't bend over backwards any longer to try and keep him updated or involved. It is not your responsibility to do so. This is a child that both of you created and if he has no interest then it's his lose. I know how upsetting this must be for you and I'm sure a part of you does hate him for this and I can't say that I blame you. Keep your head up girl and please know that you can do this without him if it comes down to it.

Unfortunately, the reality for you is much greater than it is for him, I mean, you are the one carrying your child. Don't completely give up on him, but also don't force yourself to keep him updated. I don't know really anything about your situation, whether you were with him for a while or not but if you were with him for a while, chances are he will come around. If you do choose to keep him out of the know he will most likely be more willing to know more about how you’re doing and how your child is. Guys can be very selfish - - let him have his pity-party and sooner or later he’ll be back. Good luck with everything!! I wish you a happy and health pregnancy!!
