How does your husband treat you in during your pregnancy?

During my wife's pregnancy, i often, got annoyed with the demands of my wife looking for some food in the middle of my sleep...most of the time i felt that it is becoming an obligation to do the task for she is pregnant. On the contrary, knowing that she is delicate, i am willingly asks her to stop working for i don't want her to get fatigue for it may harm her. It do researches on how women get through it, knowing some do's and dont's and try to apply them and sometimes i overdo it awhich results to fetty quarrel. I believe pregnancy period is the craziest experience for the couple. "It's a dumb if you do and dumb if you don't" experience. But it is fun... You? How does your husband treat you during your pregnancy.

As wife :) I stayed at home during my pregnancy so I almost prepare all my food that I want to eat, my husband did not need to worry about that. I never give him any troubles in middle of the night about my eating habit. But one thing that I love him that he let's me travel a lot :), maybe it was the way to reduce his troubles :)

Well I had the most event-free pregnancy ever. There were no complications, no pain, no sickness (barring the normal morning sickness thing), no unusual craving for food at odd hours, no fluctuation in BP or whatever. I am a working woman and I attended office right through the tenure. My child was expected on the 12th and I worked till the 2nd of the month. It was just a bit uncomfortable as I had to be always on the alert so that I don’t fall down or whatever and even then, I fell down twice on the road. Between my hubby and me, those nine months were like any normal months, only we had to be a bit more careful in our daily situations. I age what I wanted but in moderation so that I did not end up with stomach problems. The only regular difficulty was the flatulence that made my throat burn and then no matter what I ate, it would just not go.

My husband was wonderful when I was pregnant. I was so sick most of the time. I could hardly eat anything. Even the smell of coffee would send me over the edge. He would actually have to make his coffee and eggs outside so I would not have to run to the bathroom. I was also not one of those glowing pregnant women. I felt sick, looked sick and tired all the time, which made me a bit grouchy. He dealt with it all with grace - twice.

My pregnancy is something I will never forget. Their is not quite an expeirence like it. He did good on the food part, but he kinda stayes in his own little world. He did not understand anything and pretty much though I was a nutcase, thich I wont deny because I was a pretty crazy pregnant gal. But we had more problems than just that, he'd come and go as he pleased and most of the time I was home alone pregnant

my boyfriend turned into this big worry wart once i got futher along. he was really helpful the through the frist n second trimester. as i entered into my third trimester he started to get really worried about me being home at night when hes at work. hes been really sweet in making sure im not over doing it but at times it can become a pain. i know he is just being overly protective cause its our first child.

My husband treated me great both times! I tried not to be too demanding, though when it came to delivery time with our first son I had him fan me as it was too hot in the birthing room. The nurses and doctor said it had to be warm in the room for the baby, but they said it was okay if my husband fanned my face. So that is what he did... for 2 hours! He used a pillow as there wasn't anything else to fan me with. He told me if he ever had to fan me like that again he is going to use one of those battery powered miniature fans! Poor guy, his arms were about to fall off from fanning me with the pillow! :P If he had any complaints about me during my pregnancy, he kept them to himself, though I doubt that he did as he wants us to have a third baby! :) LOL

Well, when i was pregnant... there was always argument between me and my husband... and i blame it all on raging hormones... he would always do what i ask him to... but whenever i don't get what i exactly want or when i find him to be too slow in doin it... i just burst... But i do admire him for taking care of me during those days... and even when i gave birth... and most of the time... i wish i am still pregnant... just because of how he treated me...
