Unfortunately, this is a learned habit and a terrible habit. I have a friend who does exactly the same to me. I can hardly speak, she speaks over me when I am talking and constantly interrupts. I have brought it to her attention, telling her exactly how it makes me feel, ie, .that what I have to say is not valued by her, and she STILL does this to me.

What's really wrong here in your situation is that your husband doesn't like it done to HIM, yet he still does this to YOU, even when you bring it to his attention. Now that is really off.... since he knows how it feels and dislikes it, he is completely disrespecting you and is disregarding how YOU feel, placing a far higher priority on HIMSELF and how HE FEELS. I mean, it's one thing when they don't realize they are doing this, and then try to modify the behavior when it's brought to their attention. But when it's brought up and there's NO CHANGE in the behavior? That means they are blatantly disregarding and disrespecting you. He did not think you were finished - he knows you were not and he does this anyways.

I would not tolerate that for one second. I would put my foot down and tell him that it's UNACCEPTABLE behavior. AND to your daughter. Your daughter has learned a very bad habit from her bio father and is repeating what she has learned. She will turn a LOT of people away and will have a hard time with relationships if she does not stop the behavior. And you should not be accepting of this behavior from your own husband.

That's my two cents!
