To add on.., I don't think men would be able to handle it. & imagine where the baby would have to come out of.

I'm glad we go through pregnancy and not men. Holding our babies is so special, and we get to experience these wonderful things that they could only hear about. My fiancé holds me and rubs our little baby all the time. I just find it much better. Yeah it ***** going through sickness and tiredness but my fiancé is here every step treating my every need :)

Lol. W.my 1st pregnancy my husband was more supportive . W.our 2nd he faded away & w.our 3rd (now) is the same. Honestly, idnt think he could do it lol he complains about when hes sick icnt imagine what he would do if he was a wife w.2kids @home , do all the cooking , cleaning && on too of that dealing w.pregnancy hormones. He says im crazy & what has gotten into me sometimes? Im like seriously!! Why are you acting brand new like this is our 3rd child come on now , he needs to grow up & be more supportive or @ least try to pretend hes understands. & plus , women were made to deal w.pregnancy/labor thats what God meant it to be.

I don't think my partner can bear the pains of pregnancy. He had a flu and stomach ache once and i saw him like he was about to cry. How much more if he'll go thru morning sickness? It's okay in some point that he isn't the one experiencing those sickess, gas, backpains and acid refluxes. But everytime he tells me that i should do this and that to ease what ever pain i have, i'm like "oh. How easy for you to say that. I wish you can feel what im feeling right now". But at the end of the day what matters most is how our partner supports us in this journey.

K for the comments saying that your men are supportive & what not. Never once did we say that they weren't supportive. We all love our men but yes we all do wish sometimes they weren't so lucky..

I always joke around asking him why cant he be the pregnant one! Hahaha but I'm glad it's me and he's really supportive. Always giving me massages in the bathtub and cuddling with me when I'm emotional. He's so great. :)

I'd hate to see guys pregnant it's bad enough seeing them sick all they do is complain. Plus guys constantly get hit in the balls so they do go through pain.Plus you all knew what you were getting into when you decided to have sex to create life I understand that it's hard and it hurts but 9 months of my life is just a blip on the radar and the end result will be worth it no matter how long my labor is or how Many times I puke or anything like that

I don't believe the statement about men having it easier in life...I know from my own experience that we can do something as simple as smiling and get our way or free stuff lol .... Men should get something like a man period or pain like that but they kind of do when they old with their balls lol

The app cut off the last part of my first comment- I said, "When I was in labor I felt worse for my husband than me. I had a very easy labor/delievery, but my poor husband was white-faced and terrified the entire time. I know I had the better part of the deal. I can't imagine watching him go through something so rough, with contractions, needles and IV's running through him and blood everywhere. It's horrifing to watch the person you love the most go through that, especially knowing that you're the one who did it to them. I'm soooo glad it's me and not him."

My husband is super simpathitic and sweet to me though. He encourages me to relax while he gets things done. If he weren't like that, then I'd wish all of pregnancy's hell to rain down on him. Lol

No. I don't think a man should have to. With my husband he would not be able to deal with the pains and his job. His job is hard enough on his body, also a woman's body was designed to carry a baby a mans wasn't.

No, I don't want my husband going through this too. It would be WAY harder on him with him working and all. (And with him being a man, they're such wimps. Lol)  Plus I need him to be at 100% to make up for everything I can't do. He's a huge help with the house work and helping with our toodler. Even though I have to deal with pregnancy I'm glad I'm the one who is pregnant, I'm the one who gets to grow our baby and feel him wiggle everyday.

My hubby was always so curious asking me how it felt to have a baby in you & how it felt to know that this baby is mine that I made it & that it came out of me lol when I was in labor he looked devastated watching at me go threw pain I didn't get an epidural & he kept asking me if I wanted to change my mind. When he saw how they cut me down there he looked terrified Lol he kept telling me he wished he could take my place & give birth for me. Always reminding me he was here for me. So nope I don't think he had it easy lol he looked like he was going to pass out my poor hubby haha I felt bad for him.
& I don't think men would be able to do what we do honesty it's our gift for a reason. (:

You might think that but to be honest my husband is completely jealous.  He asked me all the time how it feels to have the baby kick. He said he is jealous because I get to carry our baby and go through this with the baby. They may not get all the bad but we do get all the good js
