We are about three weeks out from our TTC date. We made the decision about three months ago to start trying on Oct 12. At first, my husband seemed excited - he even wanted to pick out cribs and such, and he was super eager to hammer out all the details like how we will teach religion, etc etc. But as we are getting closer, his excitement seems to be waning. He has gone from saying "I'm ready for a baby" to saying "Well I could go either way" like we're trying to decide what to have for dinner. He'll still talk about childrearing things if I bring them up, but will usually change the conversation.
Last night we were watching a show in which the couple was trying, and the husband was positively over the moon. My husband started groaning and rolling his eyes. I said something along the lines of "I wish you were more excited about trying for a baby" and he shrugged and turned back to watching tv without saying a word.
I really think it's just a normal case of cold feet since it's a huge life change, but it's starting to get really discouraging. Is/did your OH ever get this way about trying?
