My wife is three months pg and I swear I dunno if we are going to make it without one of us exploding.....She is impossible to get along with.....now I kind of expected this but as anything when you have never experienced this kind of thing it sure takes some getting used to. Seems like I cant do anything right.


Anyone else who has gone through this has any advice for me??????

Besides just bite my tongue and watch what I say..... :rolleyes:

Its been a while, but in your wifes defense, think about what she is going through. If effects all women different, but sometimes it can really mess them up, not only their body, but their hormones too, and then you have all that going on at the same time, and well, I think you know what I mean.

My daughter's mother had a pregnancy from hell. She seemed to be sick non stop for 34 weeks, almost throwing up every meal. She had every reason to be miserable and I just did what I could, although at times it was tough to keep my mouth shut when she was barking at me. Think long term and the gift you will be getting. Being a parent is the most rewarding experience you will probably ever encounter. It may not always be fun, especially at the beginning when they require non stop care, but having the little one look at you like you are some kind of a god makes it all worth while.

Moral to the story: Keep your mouth shut, put your tail between your legs and do something special for her, even it is small, and see if it doesn't pay some sort of dividends.

Good Luck

I always heard about those women who became ultra horny during pregnancy. I think that's a myth.

Maverick, lots of luck. If you're having this much trouble now, wait until she's near full term in July. Look forward to that torture, buddy! Offer some foot rubs if all else fails. GL!

Congrats on the baby on the way.

I have two daughters. What I did was keep plenty of mini chocalate candy and snacks around the house. Was told chocalate has the same chemical effect as when you are falling in love. Dont know if it is true or not but she stayed happy.

Also works great right around PMS time. My wifes fav are the mini heath bars are mini snickers.

Dont forget to send her flowers

Get used to it man. When my ex-wife was pregnant with our twins, she was unbearable!!!! She would be the sweetest she could be with everyone else except for me. I think it was her second trimester when I came home from work one morning (I work graveyard) when she was eating breakfast. I had leaned over to kiss her on her cheek and then splash, a freakin' glass of orange juice right in the face. I had to leave the house for a couple of weeks. Trust me man, it'll only get worse. After the kid is born, you'll have to suffer through her post pardom depression too. Then the stress of losing sleep with the baby. It only started getting better for us about 6-8 months after the kids were born.

BEST OF LUCK...I REALLY MEAN IT...

Yep..going through it for the fourth time (last time) right now....the first pregnancy was by far the worst....it was an every day trip to both sides of the spectrum...the greatest to the biggest asshole within a 5 minute time frame.

No matter how fat...just tell her she is the most beautiful woman in the world about every couple hours...works for me now.

During the first pregnancy she told me on Christmas Eve she wished I died in a car accident....literally within an hour of telling me how lucky she was to have me. I still bring that up every Christmas and we laugh.

Its the hormones......but Crunch said it best...the reward of enduring it is well worth the price. When my first born arrived..at the moment he entered the world...I knew there was a God...most incredible feeling.

Im not a parent, but if I were to think of how it would feel like to raise a little one I think that would be the perfect way to put it I imagine...

ANYTHING THAT BLEEDS FOR MORE THAN 6 DAYS AND DOESNT DIE IS EVIL (KIDDING BAHAMA MAMA, KIND OF). MY WIFE WENT FROM BEING VERY NICE TO FRIGGIN HITLER. IM NOT KIDDING EITHER.

YET US MORONS KEEP GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING KIDS. IS LIFE REALLY THAT BORING?

I am in the same boat man... #2 on the way and due in under a month.
Every day I think about just walking out onto the Beltway and laying down in front of the morning rush.

Think we'll be seeing alot of you around here the next six months. It's the only place you'll have in your house for any meaningful conversation. On the homefront you will be using strictly two and three word sentences. "Yes dear" and "I was wrong" should be the only words coming out of your mouth. You can go to the five word sentence but only in emergencies (this can be repeated up to six times daily). "Feel like some icecream, honey?" This short sentence has saved countless American lives and is widely responsible for families larger than three. :)

Hey mav, when you hear "dada" for the first time it will all be worth it. Good luck

Man o man do I feel your pain!!! My wife is due late June early July. I made one comment about dinner and she exploded on me. Me and her both like to drink and live it up before this. Now when I drink a beer in front of her she gets totally annoyed, which I understand. But some if the crazy thoughts she gets are completely unexplainable.

One thing that I have done is to make sure our tivo is loaded with as many chic flics and her favorite programs as possible. I let her watch her programs and that TV while I watch sports etc.. in the basement.
