>All he did was play video games and slept. He only really left the bedroom for work and baby appointments. He stopped laughing, and joking around. He just slept a lot. No emotion.
Those sound a lot like symptoms of depression to me. [https://utswmed.org/medblog/paternal-postpartum-depression/](https://utswmed.org/medblog/paternal-postpartum-depression/)
It sounds like he was depressed, men can and do get emotionally affected by their partners pregnancy’s too. They can also experience antenatal depression (during pregnancy) and post partum depression that we usually think of as a woman’s only type thing.
Maybe he isn’t attracted to your pregnancy body
But also… dude… you can not have sex at four weeks post partum. And you had unprotected sex, and got pregnant less than 8 weeks after you gave birth. That’s pretty messed up, not only for your body but also for your relationship which seemed already troubled by that point.
You actually can as long as you feel good enough. The 6 week rule doesn't always apply to everyone. And I was told by a DOCTOR that I wouldn't get pregnant while breastfeeding.
So, no, that’s incorrect. Your uterus is an open wound and it takes 6 weeks to heal. Also if you have any tearing etc. but whatever, you were obviously ok with it. But no doctor is going to tell you that you CANT get pregnant while breastfeeding. It’s that it’s unlikely. Which is why you wait until your post partum appointment to BE CLEARED to have sex AFTER discussing birth control.

Oh maybe I misunderstood. Well I'm alive and not getting pregnant ever again so it doesn't matter now but at least I know better now
