False. This disappointed me with our dd as well. I thought he'd be the type who would kiss my belly the second he walked in the door, and he just doesn't show any interest at all. I would try to have him feel the baby kick in bed, and he would say that it was "uncomfortable" to hold his hand that way. (Please!)
He is such a great father now that she's out though, I guess I would rather it be that way then him pay lots of attention to the baby inutero and none once he is out lol
My daughter on the other hand, (who is going to be a year old next week) LOVES my belly and constantly pulls up my shirt to see it! I cant wait until she can feel the kicks

True, he says goodnight to him every night and tells him he loves him. He'll put his hand on my belly, but he's too impatient to wait for him to kick. He just likes to gently pat it to say hello. Caleb likes to fall back asleep when daddy's around, so it kind of hurts his feelings when Caleb kicks for me but not for him, so he stopped bothering trying, lol. But yet, he loves to interact with the baby.

True, I likes to put his hands on my belly to feel the baby move and will occasionally say something like, "Did my hand just put you to sleep?" and then answer in a falsetto voice for the baby some ridiculous but funny answer.

False, although he's getting a little better. I had to remind him the other week that he needs to talk to her so she'll recognize his voice, and he has a few times now, but not too often. He has put his hand on my belly maybe twice since I told him she's really starting to move over the last few weeks. I'm hoping he'll get better about it as she really starts to move and he can start to feel her. But I'm also thinking he's one of those dads that it doesn't seem real to him yet and he'll be a lot more involved once she's actually here.

Sometimes he does but most of the time he doesn't do more then lay his hand on my belly when we are going to bed. But as was said before he will be better when they are here and he gets past the I don't want to break them feeling lol

True - DH often puts his hand on my belly in bed and has felt the baby kick multiple times. He also puts his head to my belly to try to hear the heartbeat (not heard yet) and I LOVE it!!!

False- he's tried to feel movements a few times, but he's too impatient so he has kind of given up.
I expect once the movements start getting stronger, he'll pay more attention

True. DH loves to talk to Zoey and has felt her move multiple times. He always asks about her during the day. It's all he thinks about.  I love it!

True-he does touch the belly at night when he falls asleep but no talking or rubbing or anything like that...pretty jealous of you that have the good husbands lol j/k He's an awesome dad but "too cool" kind of attitude towards talking to the belly....whatever.
