I (26) and my boyfriend (35) accidentally got pregnant after only knowing each other for 2 months. I think he's the perfect boyfriend, small gestures, grand gestures, wants to have the hard talks to improve our relationship, ex. However he's rather on and off with me. We will have 3-6 weeks of a good steady relationsip before he needs space that will last 1 day to couple weeks.
Fast forward to today and I am now 8 months pregnant and despite him showing much excitement and support for our baby he still hasn't told his other children that they will be getting a new half sibling. I've been trying to be patient about it cause I know it is a hard topic but it seems pretty late to be telling them. Any longer and it won't be you're getting a new sibling, it will be surprise their already here.

Here, i went through the same thing, and as much as he was responsable with his other son it didnt work out for us, i know is important to you that he shows he is getting you and your baby into his life but it might take a while for him to do it. Right now what is important is you and your baby, you are creating a whole life, dont worry theres going to be time for him to do it! Hopefully it can work out for you guys but i think you have to let him sink in!
