Hi everyone, I need really some advice. I have a 3 year old son and due with #2 at the end of November. First off, I have some questions that I'd like to ask the girlfriends/wifes.
How often does your BF/DH go out with his friends?
Does he usually let you know when he's going to be back?
Would he rather spend time with his friends on the weekend instead of the family?
My DH would rather spend his Friday/Saturday nights drinking with his friends (who are all single by the way). I'm trying to come to some sort of a compromise since I can't drink or go to the places I used to before we got pregnant. He doesn't seem to understand that we got pregnant together and he should give up some things since I have no choice but to. He also thinks it's okay to go out til 2am (sometimes later! Once he was out til 6am and didn't even call!) while his son and pregnant wife stay home. I know that everyone needs time with friends, but EVERY weekend being out past 2am! He still thinks he can live the life of a single guy. Sometimes I have to remind him that he's 30, not 18!
Am I overreacting? I just feel that he doesn't seem to realize what women go through when they're pregnant and sometimes we'd like our BF/DH home on the weekend. He says that I'm being controlling and selfish. But I feel that he's not being a responsible family man. Thanks for listening everyone :)

Do you think your husband feels trapped by the added responsibily of another munchkin? I know they are often willing and quite cheerful about adding to th famiy, but then panic as the reality of the situation sets in. If it's at allpossible to approach him in a rational way about the situation, the sooner you do it, the better.
Just somw thiughts on the situation.
Good luck to you and your little one!
