My DH is a wonderful guy and a wonderful father, but he sees the glass as half empty when I see it as half full. He was scared things would fall through with our adoption so he couldn't embrace any of the excitement.
Don't forget your DH could be grieving for the infertility, scared that the whole thing isn't real, worried that you'll pay more attention to the baby than to him, fearful about the cost.
He can't/won't verbalize that so he shuts down.
Sometimes I rant and rave when my DH does that. And sometimes I ignore it and go about my business and get excited with my girlfriends or my mom.
