Abstract: Regarding men’s pregnancy reactions, scholars from St. George’s University in London conducted a study: they surveyed 282 expectant fathers of different ages and found that most of them had symptoms such as morning sickness, abdominal cramps, and insomnia. . Symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, depression, and some men even experience a pregnancy-like abdominal bulge. Qiqi is 3 months pregnant and is experiencing unprecedented morning sickness. She was mentally and physically exhausted every day. Every time I vomit, my husband also feels nauseous and sometimes vomits a little bit. Qiqi was very depressed, thinking that her husband disliked her for being dirty, but her husband\’s words moved her very much. The husband said he wished he could bear the pain of pregnancy for her. I just don’t understand why every time I see my wife having morning sickness, I feel so uncomfortable that I feel like vomiting.
Sound like a lot of love? In fact, such cases are not uncommon
@HAHAHAHA: I have morning sickness, and my husband also vomits often, sometimes a little. I think my husband is weird, but there are people like him. Now my husband is balanced.
@ Meng Xiaomeng: When it comes to pregnancy reactions, I thought I was the only one who had them, but it turned out that my husband also had them. In addition to a little morning sickness, he had other similar symptoms. How hypocritical.
@囧囧 who likes to eat hot peppers: I am now 3 months pregnant and have severe morning sickness. I will vomit when I wake up in the morning. My husband felt distressed when he saw me vomiting and couldn\’t sleep well.
with love! Men with morning sickness may be overly concerned about their wives.
Maybe you will say that if your wife is pregnant, your husband will also become pregnant, which is too hypocritical. It is true that a small number of men experience symptoms during pregnancy, but this does not mean that they do not exist. Experts believe that this symptom may be due to excessive concern for the wife.
When the husband learns that his wife is pregnant, a series of psychological changes will occur, and he also needs to be prepared to play the role of father. Being a father for the first time is inevitably nervous and even stressful, so when the wife had pregnancy reactions, the husband also had pregnancy reactions under the pressure.
Serious science: What is the reaction of expectant fathers to pregnancy?
Regarding men’s pregnancy reactions, scholars from St. George’s University in London conducted a study: they surveyed 282 expectant fathers of different ages and found that most of them had morning sickness, abdominal cramps, insomnia, fatigue, and weight loss. Symptoms such as increased mood swings, depression, and some men even experience a pregnancy-like abdominal bulge.
This kind of pregnancy reaction is called pregnancy syndrome by scientists.
Because of the high mental stress, the hormones in the body have also changed. Coupled with the worry about his wife, the anxiety about the fetus, and the joy of being a father, various emotions are intertwined and cause chaos. However, as the wife\’s pregnancy progresses, the expectant father\’s anxiety will gradually disappear, the hormones in the body will gradually return to normal, and the pregnancy-related syndromes will gradually improve..
How should we solve the problem of morning sickness for expectant fathers?
Since the expectant father’s morning sickness comes from the expectant mother, then solving the expectant mother’s morning sickness is the fundamental solution. Here’s what dads-to-be can do to help moms-to-be relieve morning sickness
Caring for expectant mothers: For example, learn about pregnancy and childbirth knowledge with expectant mothers and make preparations in advance; chat with expectant mothers more and care about their inner changes. If the expectant mother is under great stress, help relieve it in time so that the expectant mother can face various discomforts during pregnancy with a happy attitude. In short, it is necessary to do a good job in psychological counseling for expectant mothers.
Food is essential: you should eat good things when you are pregnant. The expectant father may wish to show off his cooking skills during the expectant mother\’s pregnancy, learn more new dishes, and let the expectant mother eat delicious food, such as making some dishes that can relieve morning sickness. Eating a light diet, eating small meals frequently, and eating more fruits and other fiber-rich foods can help relieve morning sickness.
Do exercise: During pregnancy, expectant mothers should not lie down often and should move more. Expectant fathers can urge expectant mothers and expectant mothers to do more aerobic exercise, such as walking, pregnancy exercises, yoga, etc. Exercise can also help pregnant mothers improve their mood, enhance their body\’s resistance, and reduce morning sickness.
