Andy, my husband won't get online, so I thought it would be ok to answer for him. I know he's felt this way. Esp. when the HG is worse, but he's said that he's feels left out of the entire pregnancy when it comes down to the medical profession. I have to pull him through the door when he joins me for appts, just to get him past the check in nurse.
My Dh doesn't join me often for appts, and while he is supportive in his own way, certainly isn't as supportive as you sound. For that I say Kudos to you and keep it up!!!
When it comes to the MW, just step up and make your voice heard. When Dh does come to appts (he's normally home w/ the other kids) he presents himself clearly, steps up, shakes hands, brings up points and questions...something to make his presence known. It seems to help and they remember him fondly.
The only thing worth stealing is a kiss from a sleeping child.
