OMG This is EXACTLY what I've been going through. I've called my friends that have children and told them I don't think I'm going to make it. They laugh and just tell me they went through the same thing. "It's hormones...suck it up" that's what they say. I wish she knew, but then again, she wishes I knew what she was going through. It's been tough so far... and still got a long way to go. Wish me luck! lol

OMG Im am soon to be father and I felt so alone until I read everyone's post today lol I think I'm gonna cry!! I would have never thought so much could happen in a couple of weeks! here's a visual ladies we're willingly and lovingly picking up extra work load outside and inside the house from cleaning the house to yard work which I thank the Lord for because it gives us a break from your drama yes hard labor just turned into our break time to relax. so guess what? we get tired and cranky just as well. consider that when you yell at us and treat us like crap!! I'm not asking for much just consider we are strong and you're turning us into weak beings, no wonder we fear this moments growing up lol look, all i'm saying is that we men have feelings too, so love us a little because we love you alot we give up alot just as you are, its an equal partership help us, love us and in return we will give our lives to you.... wish me luck im going back in....

i've read a few articles and postings on here about coping with an angry pregnant wife. they all make light of it and suggest the husband do things like "tell her she's beautiful", etc.

am i the only father-to-be on here with emotions of their own? is there something wrong with me that i can't laugh about this? i have tried to be patient. very hard. i'm not a saint by any means but i'm not a bad person either.

there's no regretting-it-later with my wife. some on here say that you can't expect that. why not?

we are now both miserable, and very, very, upset. there's nothing funny or cute about it.

I love this! yesterday my husband and i were looking at my belly and seeing how big its getting. And I said "wow i'm getting big and I have 3 more months left" and my wonderful husband said "hell your gonna be a TANK soon" I think because i didn't kill him on the stop show's I'm in good control of my Hormones!!! LOL (really i just laughed it off and said) "I KNOW!"

Dear Janet,

As one of these horrible horomonal pregnant women who can't seem to "suck it up". I really want to kick your ass right now. Enjoy your hormonal free pregnancy then, cheers!

2011-03-16T13:20:42.410-07:00

@Janet,
You are only on your 2nd pregnancy here. I was just fine and even tempered through my 3rd pregnancy. But the 4th and 5th ones were a different story. I never imagined I could be so coldhearted or not want to be near my man, but it happened. And I used to say the same thing as you...

2011-02-08T18:03:54.518-08:00

I am 16 weeks pregnant with my second baby. I get so annoyed with these types of women. I understand that there are major hormone changes because I feel them. I can understand crying about nothing and I can totally sympathize with the one about not being able to stomach the smell of her husband. Pregnancy is not an excuse to throw a tantrum or make your partner feel like he is to blame for everything.
Suck it up ladies, we are not victims. It will all be over with in a matter of months.

2008-11-25T20:37:00.000-08:00

My girlfriend is 10 weeks pregnant. I have no idea on what to do, but I do know that whatever she needs I will do. The other day I asked her how she was doing and if she needed anything to let me know. She said "You shouldn't worry about the little things"... I didnt know that having a pregnant girlfriend with your baby was considered a "little thing" haha

2008-08-30T04:46:00.000-07:00

I've noticed my sailor-like ability to string together expletives that have no rhyme or reason-and no business being in the same sentence together as they inevitably just confuse the listener. Needless to say, although I have a perfectly vaild complaint, the intended just doesn't quite get the wisdom I am offering at the top of my lungs....

My fiance and I are really excited about our soon to arrive baby girl, and she has done really well with the pregnancy, however even she hasn't been spared from a little craziness:

"If you would just do what I say, I wouldn't have to pull your hair."

That does sound incredibly evil, but made me laugh as I was reading it! Poor guy!

2007-10-24T17:57:00.000-07:00

I told my husband that hamburgers made me happier than he did (so not true!). He was so hurt by this that he started to cry while blowing bubbles for our son. Seeing his lip quiver while blowing bubbles struck my funny bone and I could not stop laughing. I felt like the most evil person ever and I will probably never live it down!

2007-10-17T20:23:00.000-07:00

I am 39 weeks pregnant. today I was sitting with my 4 year old while he listened to a CD his teacher gave him. A certain slow instrumental song came on. Tears welled up in his eyes, his lip began to quiver and he blubbered like some one had just shot Ol' Yeller. I had never seen anything like it. I am slow to move lately, so I could not jump up and comfort him. So I called for him to come to me. He looked so pathetic that it made me cry too. We sat there hugging as we both cried. I still don't know why that song made him cry, but it was clearly the song because as soon as it was over, he pushed me awa and bounced over to play with a stick he found behind the chair. I was left to finish my cry alone.

This is so funny! I recognize a lot, I tend to get the same way when I am pregnant.

Hi Tanya,

So glad you liked the post. Pregnancy is great, but it definitely has interesting moments for everyone!

Thanks,

Great post! Wish it had been around when I was expecting.. about two-and-a-half years ago. Would have definitely made the husband read it! :)

2007-10-12T10:46:00.000-07:00

Hi there.

Glad to hear she's doing well. I have to say that I've been very lucky as well. My wife is usually relatively even keeled to begin with which may account for some of it, it also makes any changes that much more pronounced.

Good luck!

Bill

2007-10-12T10:27:00.000-07:00

I've been really lucky with my fiance. We're in process of renovating my house and moving her and her two other children out of their apartment right now. Its a lot of stress all the way around. That said, she's been a trooper.

Only once has she started crying and throwing a tantrum. It was pretty shocking as she has been so even keel throughout her pregnancy. Overall, I have no complains about her hormonal behavior.
