Easy Steps First Time Dads Can Take For a More Pleasant Pregnancy

One of the things I missed most during my wife's pregnancy and being a first time dad to be, were the things we did together like going out on dates; watching movies; partying with friends. Somehow in the course of the whole pregnancy, this takes a backseat in our lives.

Yes, I understood that it was time to take being responsible up a few notches but still, I noticed that we never did anything fun anymore. We usually just stay at home and deal with hormones and mood swings. I'm telling you, it took me a while to realize but in the end, I found out that just because my wife was pregnant, it didn't mean we could not do the same things that we were doing before it.

I first took notice that I had to do something with my wife's mood swings when she asked me one night why we don't go out anymore. I found that weird since the obvious answer was sitting comfortably inside her belly.

I was hesitant to take her out on a date because I knew how tiresome being pregnant was and I thought that she would rather stay in the house where she will be comfortable. I mean, she was the one who said she felt hideous because she gained weight or she was tired all the time. But in the end, taking her out to dinner did improve her mood! She felt more confident that she's going to make a great mother.

Pregnancy is a difficult time for your wife or partner. She will constantly deal with emotional turmoil as well as hormones sending her body different, mixed signals. It is your duty as a first time dad to make sure she's relaxed and comfortable during her pregnant state.

A dinner out in the town might not sound as much but for your pregnant partner, it will mean a lot. My wife told me so after I took her to a fancy restaurant. She said she felt a whole lot better knowing that I was proud to be walking into a fine restaurant with a fat, pregnant wife. I told her she was being ridiculous that I would take her anywhere with me no matter how she looked but still, I knew it was a big deal for her.

Another thing that I realized as a first time dad to be is how it makes my life easier as well. By giving my wife foot massages, back rubs and accompanying her to yoga classes or just a simple walk in the park, I was helping her relax and handle the pain and stress of pregnancy well.

This meant that I was also lessening the stress on myself. Exercise enables our bodies to release endorphins that are keys to making us feel energetic and happy. If my wife was happy, she wasn't her usual cranky, hormonal bossy type and it meant I got no criticisms or scolding too. It was a relief for my pride and ego, I tell you!
