This is gonna sound funny but my husband says he also feels nausea and gets cravings ever since i got pregnant lol. Is this a real thing or hes just being dramatic? anyone whose partner went through this?
That's such an interesting question! My husband has been getting some crazy food cravings lately, which is so unlike him, and he keeps saying he feels more tired. I was wondering if other partners experience similar things, or if it's just him feeling extra supportive? It's kind of cute but also makes me wonder if it's a real thing.
Haha, if fathers had actual physical pregnancy symptoms, imagine the chaos! With twins, my husband definitely gained some sympathy weight from eating all my craving foods, and his stress levels went through the roof. So, while no morning sickness or kicks, they do share the emotional rollercoaster and the 'baby weight' in solidarity sometimes!
Well, not really pregnancy symptoms in the way we women get them, but my husband definitely became more protective and anxious, especially closer to the due date. He didn't have morning sickness but he was always fetching me ginger tea! It's more of an emotional and supportive role for them, which is also very important.
Wouldn't that be a riot if dads got morning sickness too? Imagine them running to the bathroom while you're craving pickles! 😉 Actually, no, they don't get 'pregnancy symptoms' like us, but some do experience what's called Couvade Syndrome – basically, they feel a bit of sympathy pain, weight gain, or cravings. It's adorable, really, how invested they get!
Oh god, morning sickness was hell for me, so I can totally get why we'd wish dads could share some symptoms! While they don't *physically* carry the baby, some men do experience what's called 'Couvade syndrome' – like nausea, weight gain, or food cravings. It's usually psychological, but it's sweet they feel so involved, right?
