Don’t mess with the Prego

Don’t mess with the Prego


If you have any kids then I’m sure you can relate when I say that “Hell hath no fury like a Prego” (Pregnant Woman)

To all the brothers with no kids yet & who think that their Partners are hectic when they get their PMS….well ”You aint seen nothing yet”. Let me inform you that just because women don’t PMS during pregnancy, it doesn’t mean that the coast is clear. Oh no, quite the contrary actually. Various hormones are being generated hourly that will cause your wonderful partner to become a homicidal maniac at times. Throw in the additional weight & increased thermoregulation caused by the developing Zygote & you’ll end up with a tired, frustrated, awkward, self-conscious human being who is ready at any second for no apparent reason to open up a 6 pack of whoop ass on you…. Its times like this you wish you were like Wolverine…

On that note let me offer some damage control advice to the fathers of tomorrow:

  • Shower her with affection & say "I love you" as often as possible no matter what - She might not understand how you can find a Double Door Fridge attractive but hey we don't understand why they talk so much either.
  • Console her by telling her that from the back you'd never say she was pregnant or that she looks exactly the same as before the pregnancy except for the fact that she swallowed a watermelon . - This will help tremendously when her increased size gets her down & she complains about how she feels like a T-Rex as she believes the ground shakes when she walks.
  • Offer to give her foot massages or perform them whenever she requests - even if her enlarged feet reek like a pack of old nik naks...just think happy thoughts...
  • Help out with household chores as much as you hate them - a note for sweeping, don't extend your arms to the point where have to reach far to get the dust as you will end up bending your back & look like the Hunchback of Notre-Dame.
  • Try to accomodate her random cravings as best as you can - Try substituting items that aren't in your fridge / kitchen cupboard with ones that are readily available even if you have to get up late at night to make them. (Bor at 12am - no chance...how about a glass of water honey pie)
I guess there are many more tips i could offer but why spoil the journey for you :P

Finally, always remember that deep down inside of her lies the wonderful, amazing woman that you fell in love with in the beginning of your turbulent relationship.
