Hi everyone,
My wife and I are 16 week pregnant. She has been sick pretty the the whole time and at time becomes discouraged. I try to encourage her as much as possible but as she is beginning to show more and more as the weeks go by, she becomes more self-conscious of her bump. She sees herself as fat but she isn't. What are some ways I can encourage her more?
Re: Encouraging my wife
Hug her, kiss her, tell her she is beautiful, ignore her comments about being fat or unattractive.
There's an awkward period between being KU and everyone clearly knowing you are pregnant. She's almost out of it, and strangers will start being re
+1 to ignoring the comments from her on being 'fat.' I don't think there are any correct responses to that.
Again, tell her she is beautiful and give her a hug and a kiss.
And do it again, and again, and again....
The guys have the right idea. Ignore the "fat" comments; there really is no correct response.
Show affection and offer verbal reassurance so she knows you still find her attractive.
A spa day, date, or babymoon are all awesome id
