Cool it on the baby talk (as in, talking about your baby?)
FWIW, I am 7 weeks from my due date and it's hard to think about anything else. Plus, he isn't much of a conversationalist anyway (husband, not the baby)...
Just curious...
You might also enjoy...

haha, no, but he also would just ignore me when I used to talk too much about the baby (prior to its arrival)! Probably why I'm so active on HB...
-
No but I am sure he probably tuned me out
-
same as @Mamaof2: I have a feeling he's just starting to tune me out! LOL
-
He is smarter then that. I assume he tunes me out at times.
-
Depends on the conversation, but essentially yes. If he had a really stressful day, he's said he just needs a night to not plan baby things. Or, maybe I'll be discussing something gross during dinner.
-
No, but he definitely, 100%, tuned me out a BUNCH. Lol
-
Yes. She has. Haha. Not as much anymore though - more so before I got pregnant and would talk about it incessantly.
-
Yes. We've had to set boundaries. Like I can't talk about it on date night or when we are in the car.
-
no. sometimes he's less than enthused though. whatever.
-
No, I would kill him! I'm sure he isn't listening half the time though haha.
He does seem to get a little annoyed at how often I grab his hand to feel the baby kick. He doesn't find it nearly as exciting as I do! Though probably bc she usually stops whenever he tries to feel her.
-
@Keybee: in the car lolol. bc he has nowhere to run?
-
Nope but agree with others that he probably just half listens!
-
No. I often ask him (during the pregnancy and now) if I'm talking about her too much and he always says no. I'm sure he tunes me out sometimes.
-
No. Although one time when LO was maybe 5 or 6 weeks home and I was still home and more overwhelmed with life and in more pain than I knew what to do with still (breastfeeding) he got home from work and said "Anything non-baby-related happy today?"
That went over super well.
-
@Keybee: that would make me crazy! I get so much of my talking done in the car lol.
-
@Smurfette: heh, my response sounds very similar.
-
I'm sure he thinks it in his head, but knows better than to say it out loud and risk my wrath lol.
-
@fuzzypeaches: Lol this!
-
Another vote for "no, but I know he tunes me out!"
-
Oh yes! He gets tired of hearing of babies and pregnancy but I know he just realizes that's the life stage my friends and I are in so he has to deal.
-
I should say, he didn't specifically ask me but he did say all the baby talk can be overwhelming. He said he understands it comes from a place of being excited.
-
Not exactly, but he had said a few times something about my having been obsessed both when TTC & now pregnant. As others, I think he does tune me out some, but he has also said he's "more excited than I even know" for our little girl to arrive.
-
Nope. DH had crazy mad baby fever way before we even thought about TTC so the fact we had a bun in the oven he was all over it.
-
@Torchwood: Agree with this. Another vote for "no, but he'll tune me out."
-
No, if anything it's the opposite!!
-
No, but in the early weeks of parenthood we joked about him having the ability to think about things other than the baby- I definitely couldn't!
