Question

Daughter had quads, husband not happy and connected to babies is this normal?

Answer 1

I don't think ANY husband would be happy getting 4 babies for the price of one. I know that as a mom you probably don't think of the problems associated with this (e.g. COSTS!!!) but yes this is very normal.

Answer 2

I would say that the poor man is still in shock. Dealing with one baby is hard enough but 4 can seem like an impossibility.

I would suggest that mom involves dad in the care right away so he can adjust.

Answer 3

He's probably just overwhelmed. I'd give him some time to get used to being a father to 4 children. I'm sure he'll come around.

Answer 4

Totally normal.  I only had twins and it took my husband a while to adjust.  Having one baby is hard, having high order multiples can be overwhelming.  It will take him some time to get used to how much his life has changed.

Answer 5

Quadruplets?

He's probably just overwhelmed by the idea of it, now that they are here.  Give him some time to adjust.
