Wouldn't that be nice if they would just listen.
Unfortunately, you can't change him. The only thing you can do is not let his attitude effect you. You only have the power to change how you handle this. Go plan your announcements, baby's room whatever else your heart desires and do not allow his feelings to stop you. He'll come along, when he's ready. Let his remarks roll off your shoulders. Sometimes, you really have to do that or you will be living his emotional wave instead of your own. I think, I would rather be where you are moving forward and happy with life. Leave him to fend for himself
