Does your DH take a real interest in your pregnancy?
My DH comes to all appointments and tries to look after me and takes an interest in all baby purchases, however last night someone asked him how many weeks pregnant I am and he had to ask me! I thought I drilled this info to his head on a daily basis. Haha.

Ha no! DH knew the due date though!
-
I don't think he did all the time. But, half the time I even had to stop and think about it.
-
He could get it within probably a week or so this time. First time around, when we were pregnant, he knew every week.
-
Yep! We sort of celebrated every time a week rolled over so he always knew how far along I was.
-
Ha! No! He probably wouldn't have been able to tell how many months either.
-
I think so! He commented last night that we've got 17 weeks left, and he's right!
-
OMG this thread got me a good laugh - I asked DH and he said, "I don't know, how many weeks are you? Five?" I looked at him incredulously and he was like, "Wait, that's not right...um, I meant months (sure you did.) Uh...thirty weeks?"
In what world does five months equal thirty weeks? And he's wrong either way. I'm 16 weeks.
-
i don't think i ever tested him, but can safely say he would not have known. He has trouble remembering how old LO is now!
-
@wonderstruck: hahaha hilarious!
-
Yep DH kept up with each week almost better than I did, he had two or three apps on his phone that he looked at everyday
-
Haha no! I'm not even sure he could tell me my due date. He's just not that into my pregnancy (wasn't with DS too) but he's a wonderful daddy.
-
I think he would be close but now I am curious to ask him. Although I assumed he knew morning sickness was a misnomer and he was pissed the doctor wasn't taking it more seriously that I was sick all day...
-
Haha I just asked mine & he said he knew on the day of my last appt (which was 2 weeks ago) but he didn't remember I'm 9 weeks. He does remember the due date though.
-
I just asked him to see and first he was trying to be funny and said 97 weeks, but then said 21 weeks almost 22, which is bang on (I'm 22 weeks tomorrow)
-
No, probably cause I don't either! Man taking care of an eleven month old sure takes the romance out of pregnancy!
-
Yes, but that's largely because we were in a position to consider termination this week, and we had to decide quickly to stay within the legal limit (I'm 22 weeks, and that's the latest you can here). Thankfully didn't turn out that way, and I expect in a few weeks he'll go back to not remembering.
He's starting to take an interest now that things are looking good and he felt baby kick for the first time last night!
-
Yup! I wasn't sure if he would know but he did.
-
Just asked and surprisingly, he knew!
-
We both can tell you to the day on cue!! We are both a little eager for LO's arrival!
-
Just asked my DH and he said 26 weeks I'm 25 weeks 5 days. I'd say that's a win! Good job, Daddy!
-
@wonderstruck: hahaha! that's too funny.
DH usually knew because I would show him the weekly email so he usually knew the week/fruit give or take a week.
-
Without a doubt! He has been to every single appointment with me, and is super involved. In fact, today he was telling the waitress how many weeks until our baby's arrival. He couldn't be more excited
-
Yes, every time the week rolls over he congratulates me in the morning!
-
Nope! I just asked if he knew (I'm 20 weeks) and he said 'I don't know. Like 5 months or something?'
So, close! But he doesn't remember weeks.
-
Haha I just asked.
Him: "30?"
Me: "no."
Him "27?"
Me: "no"Question answered
not too far off though, I'm 29. He's still trying to figure it out.
-
We're still in 1st trimester so I think he knows. I'm not sure if he can keep track later on haha!
-
He knows, he even knows my last missed period.
-
He is so aware of my reproductive schedule it's weird. When I start thinking am late he reassures me that I'm not scheduled to start until a certain day and when I was pregnant he knew what week and even sometimes what day. Its actually kinda cute that he pays that much detention. As for AF, HE says he remembers because it counts down the days he can have fun. Lol.
-
No, he knows my due date though, only because it's exactly one week before our dd's birthday.
-
I asked and this was the conversation that ensued:
Me: Do you know how many weeks pregnant I am?
Him: What was our conception date? (picks up Ipad)
Me: I'm not asking because I don't know. (he looks confused, as he didn't get I was testing him)
Him: Well, I can logic my way through this. You are pregnant for how many weeks? 30? No.. that's not right. I think it's 40. Using your due date (starts calling out math) that's 40 minus 14.5 .. are you around 25 and 26 weeks? It feels like it's been a lot longer.I'm 25 weeks on Wednesday, so not that bad. He did know my due date, at least!
-
I send him my XX-week appointments to his Outlook calendar, so he could figure it out if he needed to, but if I asked him without access to that calendar - NO WAY! Although, to be fair, I don't even usually know how many weeks I am
-
@BakerBee: Hahahahaha - DH would totally try to logic it out too (if he cared enough the moment I asked)
-
I asked and he knew! He was so proud of himself.
-
He probably wouldn't know how many weeks I am, but would know how many weeks we have left.
not too far off though, I'm 29. He's still trying to figure it out.
