What do women need

[hermister]

As a first time father, having moved 3 1/2 hours to be with my fiance, I'm still causing stress and doing everything wrong. What are some things I can do for my fiance to help her and ease her stress. I know I need to ask her as well, but what ask vice to some of you ladies have?

Anything you can do to let her know you love her and the baby and how excited you are to have her carry your child, should be a sure win. And make sure to be patient because the mood swings can be crazy, good luck. Btw I am sure you are not doing everything wrong, the fact you are on here and asking this shows you are not:)

Listen to any hints that she gives you! If she says she's too tired to do something, that's your clue to go to do for her. You'd be surprised at how happy it will make her to just start massaging her feet or back before she tries to fall asleep. In fact, that's the only thing that will put me to sleep now! I agree with the comment that said don't try to make jokes or tease her..right now is not the time because we're very touchy and anything can be taken the wrong way. Another thing, if it seems like you did something wrong, don't try to defend yourself! Just say you're sorry as many times as possible and tell her you're going to try to do better. One if the biggest mistakes my fiance does is trying to defend his actions because it makes me feel like he thinks he right and I'm wrong. All we really want is to be told we're right and that you'll try! My favorite thing that my fiance does is helping me get up, or holding his hand on my back while I walk...it will make her feel special =)

Yeah definitely let her know you're excited for the baby and to be a family. I love it when my husband says or shows his excitement for our growing daughter. :)

I think you should  just talk to her.. My husband helps a lot around the house but i just love it when we talk... Especially when we talk about the baby and how he feels... We're all different, and talking to her would be best.. Good luck!

No mocking or laughing at her even if you aren't trying to be mean...my husband jokes with me but since I've been pregnant my mood swings are fast and fierce, so his jokes are sometimes misinterpreted. Check out books like Dude You're Gonna Be a Dad, they have helpful tips on how to handle all kinds of situations.

Massages are always nice. Foot rubs, baths(not too hot) and lots of naps! Don't wait for her to ask you to do something. If laundry needs done or the dishes then do them. Be patient with her. :)

Tbh, it's hard to please a woman , but just letting her know your there for her in this very emotional journey is more than she needs. Just don't give up when times get hard or take anything she says personal it's just the hormones. Tou are a good person for asking asking wanting to be asking part of her pregnancy! She is lucky I wish you both the best...

Cook, clean, let her rest. Bring her flowers & tell her how beautiful she is!
