why cant he be like this!
in Baby
Im sat here looking at my dad and hes playing with harri and talking to him and harri is loving it! but im so guttrd coz my oh rarely does this, he loves him too bits but gets bored easily wen holding him and interacting and is quick to put him on his mat after a while. its makes me so sad, i wish he would be with him like my dad is! why cant he do it!? ive told him about it and he is good with him but he sometimes dont bother! when will he start acting like a daddy!!! Have i made a mistake thinking he would step up to the mark! its really upsetting. should i just lay it on the line with him, and say if he dont start being with him more i will walk. xxx

i dont think you should threaten to leave him, you just need to talk to him about it-see if anything changes. i cant really give much advise as i am in the same position! xx
i find my hubby fab BUT he does prob get more impatient than i do and believe me normally im very impatient, but the one thing having a baby teaches you its that!!!
how olds your lo? perhaps as you lo gets older and starts giggling, playing etc he may feel more confident with baby!
i think you should speak to him but first try asking him if he just feels silly as if thats all it is then do not walk out!!!
i really really hope things get better as its such a shame he's missing out on your lo being a baby before we'll know it they'll be having todler tantrams xxx

I think it is just a matter of not being a baby person, he has never had anything to do with babies or even children but he is gradually changing.
I started getting him to take lo for about half an hour to an hour while I sorted out lo's bottles and dinner and also got him to give her last bottle at night and I think that has helped and also given me a bit of time to get things done.
