What is the fear of pregnant women called?

  • Being afraid of becoming a father is not a phobia, but very natural. While some men are ecstatic they will become a father many men are terrified for fear they will not be a good provider or a good father to that child as well as perhaps fear of things not being normal again with their spouse and it is a whole new experience for him. This is a normal reaction for many young men when the subject of having children is brought up. Couples who are about to start their families are very nervous at first because it's simply fear of the unknown (something they have never done before) but, if it is well planned then fatherhood can be a very enjoyable part of the individual's life and most fathers dote on their children. To fear about such things is losing joy in one's life. Young men who are about to become fathers should realize they are not alone and they have the spouse and generally both sides of the family to help out; especially the grandparents.

New: No, look at Stephen Hawkins.
