Not sure if there's any interest or if this will take off but.
I thought it might be fun to document all of the ridiculous things our husbands say about our pregnancies / do with our babies! OR, ridiculous things our kids are saying about our pregnancy / their future sibling.
Re: Sh!t my husband (and kid!) says
Me: Did you know the baby can hear now?
DH: *rolls over to my belly as if to whisper something sweet to his unborn son*
Me: *heart begins to melt*
DH: "Don't say f*ck. F*ck is a bad word"
at at the beginning of pregnancy he said not to worry about people thinking i was pregnant, I just looked chubby 🤦🏻♀️ Thanks for that reassurance!
Now his thing is all that he complains about. How exhausted he is, how much weight he’s gained, his sore back... who’s pregnant!? 🤨🙄
I think we should also consider another thread of things kids say! My son has had some good 1 liners about this pregnancy and the mysterious baby in my belly!
@blitzybee my husband is the same way. It’s always a game of who has it worse!
”Are you excited to meet your baby sister?”
DS: “I’m excited to eat her!!”
😳😬

I told him that sometimes babies cry because they have gas and you need to move their legs and stuff to help pass the gas and this where the fart part came from
He points at my belly button and says the baby will come out of there (I’ll go with that for now!)
One time he cuddled up to me and farted on my belly and laughed for about 10 minutes for farting on the baby.
Every once in a while, he tells me, “mom, I don’t want to go in your belly!” To which I respond-I don’t want you in my belly either!
When we asked him what the baby’s name should be, he said “sister.” Well kiddo, you’re getting a brother and I don’t think he would appreciate that name!
Husband: 'what do you think the third is expected to do during labor/delivery? What do you anticipate them doing? Just hang back and wait, out of the way? Perhaps they can rub my back.'
WTH?!!?!? NO ONE is going to be rubbing YOUR BACK when I'M pushing out a baby, H. SMH.
I was getting ready for work this morning, about to jump in the shower…
DH: Damn! Look at those nips.
Me: (looks down and sees absolutely nothing different about them) What are you talking about.
DH: They’re so pointy! I can’t wait to milk them!
SMH. WTF dude.
I should add that there’s a running joke between us about milking me. When MH told his supervisor that we’re expecting, he excitedly told MH that he needs to try my breast milk. Apparently his supervisor, who has like 12 kids, likes to drink his wife’s BM straight from the nip during foreplay. What!? That’s not really a thing… is it!?

The first night we told her that she was going to be a big sister, she was like nonchalant about it, so I said, "do you have any questions sweetheart?" and she said, "I do!" "Ok hunny, ask me anything" and she proceeds with "its about Dinosaurs..." (Kill the sweet moment!)
The morning after we told her about the baby she lifted the blanket off me in bed and looking at my belly asks "Is the baby here yet?" (We're going to hear this a lot over the next 4 months!)
After telling her that the baby can hear her voice and will know that she is her big sister, "I"m going to talk to the baby, I'm going to ask what its name is" "OK, you let me know what the baby says" after putting her ear to my belly, "It's name is Baby Huck" (We have no idea where this came from, but figure the nickname could be worse, so we're not correcting her.)
She tells EVERYONE that she sees that she is going to be a big sister, which is amazing, and also makes me SO grateful that we waited until after 20+ weeks to tell her (after we told work, family, friends, etc.!)

My 19 month old son just learned the word hot. So, last night as we were getting ready for bed he points at the heater in his room and goes "hot!". I say "that right, heaters are hot. That's why we don't touch them". Then he walks over to the heater and blows on it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I kid you not.
Last night DS was giving my belly hugs and kisses. He wanted to “see” baby sister so he lifted my shirt up off my belly. When he was done “seeing” her he put my shirt down and said “night night!!” 🥰
a couple days ago, he tried to reveal the baby to a new (male) doctor... and he thought the baby was in my boobs. Holy heck that was embarrassing!!! 😳😳😳
He replies, “hmmm... no, you definitely don’t look any smaller”
🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Just tell me I’m pretty and agree with anything I say, even if it’s ridiculous pleaaaase and thank you!
And for the record dear husband, I finally poo-ed yesterday, SO I AM SMALLER TODAY! Hahahaha Ohhhh pregnancy joys...
