I;m expecting and he is well aware of this he was so excited when I told him he was starting to changes his ways and becoming more mature and actually thinking things through. He looked up so soccer site and saw they have a semi pro soccer team in galveston tryouts on may 8th well he decided he was going to go without even thinking about that being the same day we have our first ultrasound I told him about it and he still decides to choose soccer over the ultrasound he even told me that soccer is his life and he can’t focus on anything else so please this is causing alot of problems on my marriage so please tell me how im suppose to get over it and support him
maybe yall are right but he hasnt played soccer in years and now all of a sudden wants to he dont even have a job hasnt for the past 7 months ive been supporting and taking care of him ii would think its his time to take careof his family but maybe im just bein selfish
I know you would like him to be there, and he probably wants to be there too…
But this is really not something he can change the time or date of, it’s his only chance.
Just bear in mind that you will have other ultrasounds…and ask your mom or a friend to share the experience with you.
And, at least he’s not going bowling, love!

If he has the potential to make a good living with soccer, then let him go. Bring your mom to the ultrasound. You will have more than one ultrasound. I know it’s special that he be there for the first one, but is it really that big of a deal? He’s not choosing soccer over you and your baby. He’s trying to get into a good career to support you!

That is the longest run on sentence ever. Periods and comma’s are your friends. Don’t be afraid to use them.
It’s just an ultrasound. If it was the birth of the child I would be concerned. You have a faithful Husband who wants to be active and be a good role model for your child. I don’t understand why you are having a problem with this.

Ditto on the 2 answers so far. Think of him and not yourself or you will not be married in a few years anyway.

He’s not supporting you or his baby, so why should you support him? I guess you shouldn’t fight him about it, but he’s being a jerk.

You want to know how to support HIM?
He skipped your baby’s ultra sound to go tryout for a SEMI-PRO soccer team, and you want to know how to support HIM?
He told you flat out that "soccer is his life" and you want to try to support HIM?
What is he doing to support YOU???
He can’t focus on anything else when he has a child on the way?
I’m sorry my dear, but don’t you dare "get over it" and you had better make it clear to him what his priorities should be.
He wants to play some soccer for recreation, fine, but his first priority should be his wife and his baby that is on the way.
PERIOD.
What if he makes the team?
Gone every weekend, or more playing soccer.
It’s one thing if he will make enough money to support his family, but he won’t make squat doing the semi-pro thing.
There is a family in the making here, and he needs to get on board with that.
Set him straight.
Good luck to you.

That is definitely a tough call I recommend calling your obgyn and telling them your situation that your husband has a prospective career opportunity that happens to fall on the exact same date and ask if you can move the ultrasound back one day or up one day so that it is not far away at all from the original appointment!!
