How to make a pregnant girl happy?

Answer 1

Be there and be stable. It's the same as making any person happy except you must add in hormones and sometimes extreme mood fluctuations. KNOW that she CANT help it and probably doesn't even NOTICE it! Best thing you can do is what she asks you to... if she isn't the asking type... try a few of these things...

1. Do something to show her you are EXCITED about the baby... buy baby clothes or rent a Doppler online so you two can listen to the baby's heartbeat. They can start around $20 a month... This is the most important one! Even if NONE of the others apply to her and her personality no mother can resist a man she knows is excited about the baby! Also, if you don't already have one... get each of you cell phones and or beepers... this way you can alert each other to emergencies and when "ITS TIME". If you can't afford one... just work out a courtesy... like I will be around town today doing the shopping... ok I will be over Nina's fishing... let each other know where you will be so if an emergency happpens or it IS TIME you are at least remotely reachable... if she seems not to understand just tell her you can't miss it and wouldn't for the world... that will soften her up!

2. Tell her she is beautiful and you feel priveleged that she felt you were the one and the one who's child she would carry within her body. Sounds cheesy but to me and lots of other women carrying a man's child is the ultimate way to show love and worthiness. Think about it! We are sacrificing our body to give our child life!

3. Notice how her body is changing and tell her that you love it. The bigger she gets the more healthy the baby and she is... also remind yourself that the bigger she gets the more difficulty it is to do simple tasks like wash her own feet in the bath tub. Do some of the more tedious household chores (the more and more frequently the better) or offer her a bubble bath.

4. Make craving runs... don't complain... tell her you like doing it because it makes you a part of her pregnancy since you can't feel the sypmtoms for her...

5. VERY IMPORTANT! She is making a LIFE with her body! SHE IS TIRED! And will stay especially tired through her first and third trimesters... encourage her to take naps and to take it easy. Send her to a spa and if you can't afford it set up a mini day spa for her at the house... use some lotions around the house and concentrate on the areas she can't... like her feet again...

6. Take her out... just as much as this gives her a break from cooking dinner and cleaning the dishes afterwards it gives you two time together before baby and it will also give you time to show her off! Tell her you are showing her off... you are a proud partner!

7. No matter what she says to you or does to upset you... try your best to shake it off... I was super difficult during my pregnancy and I had NO IDEA! My husband now tells me so and my mom too and I feel just awful! So try to tolerate it!

8. Try to be at all her prenatal appointments! Especially sonograms. This is another way of showing excitement and for you to be involved with her pregnancy. It also reassures you that she is doing ok... you will be there to hear the dr. say she is ok and she won't be able to hide anything from you like an order to bed rest if she is stubborn!

9. (Especially if) this is her first pregnancy she is probably a little nervous and a little scared. Buy her important books to read like "what to expect when you are expecting". It takes care of SOOOO many questions that I felt compelled to dial up my doctor at 3am for! If she gets worried she can flip open the book and reassure both of you. Plus if she enjoys reading it will give her something to do. If she does get bed ridden or spends a lot of time at the house try to find things for her to do for fun... like reading, Video Games, or puzzles... make sure she has TV and most importantly a phone within reach!

10. Lastly, do all of the previous nine... lol but also encourage good eating habits... and moderate exercises... unless her doctor says otherwise... ask her to go on walks with you... go to lamaze classes together, ask her if she would like to go to a maternity workout class if she is concerned over her health. (be careful how you go about that if she is sensitive) or just to get to know other moms-to-be. For helping her watch her nutrition and exercise she will thank you later believe me! When she loses all her baby fat you can feel a little proud too! And if she doesn't love her anyway.

Answer 2

1. Spend time with her doing whatever she wants, even if you think it's boring. 2. Read her a story from a book, even if you think she's too old. 3. Take her on a walk, or to the mall, or to a movie -- just the two of you. 4. Hug her and tell her you love her and that you will always take care of her. 5. Allow ber best friend to come over and then stay away!
