My husband has been complaining about feeling nauseous and tired since I found out I'm pregnant. Do guys actually experience pregnancy symptoms, or is he just sympathetic? I'm curious.
Haha, yes they actually do sometimes! Don't stress too much if your husband is suddenly complaining of fatigue or weird food cravings. It's called Couvade syndrome and it is surprisingly very common!
Oh absolutely! During my second trimester, I had massive cravings for chaat, but my husband was the one actually eating plate after plate of pani puri and blaming it on 'sympathetic cravings'!
My husband used to complain of morning sickness more than me! 😭 He would literally sleep for 10 hours and say he is feeling exhausted because of my pregnancy. It was so funny to watch.
Now that my baby is a busy toddler, I look back at those days and laugh. My husband actually put on 'sympathy weight' during my pregnancy and had his own sweet cravings, it was sweet in a way!
