Mommy's belly is getting larger and larger. The baby must be growing strong!
"How are you feeling", daddy asks?
Mommy sighs. “Your son has declared war on gravity again”, she mutters.
Daddy leans against the counter, smirking. "What can I do to help?", he whispers.
"Fetch me those overnight noodles from the fridge", she replies with a commanding tone in her voice.
With impeccable timing, a strong kick within mommy's belly is almost visible meters away where daddy is standing.
"Oof! He is really listening, isn't he?", daddy says with a feeling of pride.
"The noodles..", mommy growls, as if she is not surprised at all.
Daddy straightens his posture just like he would in front of an army officer. "Yes captain!"
Mothers during pregnancy are going through emotions that are particularly hard for their male partners to understand.
Be patient and supportive, show strength and stay close to them. The best is yet to come!
