I remember my taunts of “fattie fattie” did not go down too well during the pregnancy of our first child! But seriously I think the Dad’s job is to be the rock that supports and listens to “Mum.” Having a little fun like Moddified Mummy said goes down a treat aswell. My wife can’t seem to stop wanting to have fun! Heh

Great blog – my first time here and I thought I should say hi

Nice list! Do:
Rub her feet. They’re probably sore, and there are pressure points all over the feet and ankles that can help bring on labor.

Run her a warm bath. Then check back in in about 15 minutes just in case she needs help getting out but is afraid to ask.

Ditto the raspberry tea, good stuff.

Gently rub her belly and talk to your baby.

Tell her you love her, and how beautiful you think she is.

Don’t:

encourage induction or other unnecessary medical procedures, particularly if she’s mentioned wanting a natural birth.

pick on her size. she’s aware that she’s huge. she knows her shoes don’t fit. much like a balding man doesn’t want a hat for a gift.

treat her like a walking time bomb. pregnancy is a biological process no different than digesting food or breathing. let her do her thing.

Hide! lol

When I am in the last stages of pregnancy something I like to call Angry Pregnant woman comes out. Every little thing that anyone says will piss me off big time. I think mostly I wanted to hide in a cave alone somewhere until the baby was ready to come out.

I bought my wife a nintendo ds.

Note to other husbands: do NOT buy your pregnant wife a nintendo ds.

Wishing you a fast delivery. Stocking up on the little items are best, ya never know what you’ll need when the little one is here.

Don’t make a “beep…beep…beep…beep” noise whenever she backs up. She won’t think it’s as funny.

I can’t help you otherwise. We had a scheduled c-section so we thought we knew when the twins were coming. Of course, they came a couple of days early and make us run around like crazy before heading to the hospital.

Good luck!

You are doing a great job! Buying her little stuff and taking control over the little stuff is the best.

Here’s to a magical delivery and lots of joy!

…..Bring cups of raspberry tea Source: http://tinyurl.com/y8cwsv
…..suggest naughty things before that’s off the agenda for weeks to come
…take pictures. Although she probably won’t want it she’ll never believe she really was that size again. I took one 2 days before I delivered and I can believe it looking at the pictures how I had such a big baby!
…take her on long walks. She’ll love the distraction and it might…….help.
