My wifes 6 months pregnant!

Has anyone had simmilar experiances???
She seems to have an excuse for everything!! Even with the others she had witty comebacks.
But this time around they are quicker and more to the point than in the past!

Just wondering???

Of course I can play the piano, as long as it has pedals!

    You have a body full of raging hormones and see what kind of witty remarks you'll come up with!!!! It is just part of the total package that comes along with the creating of a beautiful baby, don't you think?????? I think it's worth it ALL in the end!!!!!!!!!

    Being female.. boy could I deck you with a couple of smart remarks... but being a lady.. I wont..

    First..The hormonal change that goes on in a womans body while pregnant is monumental to say the least... Then on top of it, she feels fat.. bloated.. ugly (not that we dont feel that way 90% of the time) but more so now...Now add to it that she may not be able to sleep due to the baby kicking.. back ache., size (hers), sore tender breasts...other babies keeping her up...etc..Are you getting the pic yet?..

    Give the woman a break.. she is, after all.. carrying your child.. and hers of course... help out.. fix her dinner once a week.. take the kids.. and give her some time alone.. show her that you love her, with kind supportive words and gestures.. and most important of all.. Respect her and what she wants to do... The last thing we feel like doing when preg is.. well you know without me having to spell it out..

    Just my opinion.

    Guess I should have worded this post differently, Never ment to get anyone excited! But I probably get what I deserve

    interstatepawnllc,
    Congradulations on the new addition to the family, hope everthing turns out ok for you and your wife. Kids are great, they will give you your highest highs and your lowest lows but, always love them and enjoy then while you can.

    I gave her that hug! Thank you!!

    interstate
    Congrats, don't feel alone! I get scared when I think about all the first cars I might get talked into buying!

    One thing though! As soon as you first see your baby's face, all fears will dissappear!!

    Of course I can play the piano, as long as it has pedals!

    Dupont,
    With five kids have you ever thought of going into the car business?

    interstatepawnllc,
    My apologies to Blackroses, but if your wife askes you if she looks fat, go deaf and ask he if you can get something for her from the frig.

    Interstate;Congratulations on your first. I'm kind of like Kimberkid in some respects, I have two grown daughters and also a 4 year old. I appreciate our time together more now than when I was younger,always too busy working to get ahead. Hope you have the time and take the time that I didn't the first and second time. You'll be fine!!! and yes I'm now close to mid-40's.

    Congratulations, Dupont and interstate!!! I have four of my own, wish it was feasible to have more, but it's not in the cards. I think that each baby brings on a different hormonal change, aside fom whatever is going on in the life and emotions of the mother. Ya want kids, ya gotta deal with it. God bless, and now we have two more kids coming into the world who will be taught common sense and brought up to believe in their rights.

    I would if I thought they'd make their own car payments!!

    If I pretended to be deaf and asked her if she wanted anything from the frig, she'd hurt me!!!

    Dupont,
    Understand about the car payments, have two sons both good kids but man, those insurance payments are killers.

    Did the deaf bit with my wife once, and she said as large as she was getting how could I even ask her if I could get something for her from the frig. Told her I never noticed her getting fat, just getting more lovely everyday. Worked for about two minutes.

    My wife and I went through this 7 times, each time it was different, exiting and wonderful. It is the begining of a different phase of your life each time. Congratulations. The fun is just begining.

    I think pregnant women are beautiful. Memorize that phrase. It is true for me, but you can learn it. Tell her she is beautiful and get her anything she asks for.

    Lucky for me there was a Mexican place with a drive up window open late, because I was fetching guacamole 4-5 nights a week.

    I hope you enjoyed the 5th month heat phase. That was the best part.

    My wife is 34 weeks today with our first. She has been the complete opposite of what everyone tells me she should be. She has been pretty much her normal self. She gets tired a little faster and likes to sleep a little more. She complains of some minor pains, but thats it. She hasn't been short or ill-tempered. I think she is just very happy with her life as it is. I'm very lucky, she's gonna be a great mom. She has 3 younger sisters, 8 younger cousins, and worked in her grandmother's daycare (where our kids will be going). She is a pediatric nurse (FREE CO-PAYS and SIMILAC ). Life is good (except for my reletively small gun and ammo collection).

    We'll even be completely out of debt (except for the two houses we own) December of this year. No more credit card payments, student loan payments, or car payments

    I'm not afraid of the dark...the dark is afraid of me!

    Had to put in my 2 cents worth. Congrats on you new one.

    I I have 4 from 24 to 4. Am going to be 50 this summer, but if I could find someone who wanted some, I would readily have more and all that goes with them. Greatest part of life is your kids and raising them! and I did it the hard way after my wife died and left me with an 8 and 4 year old to raise alone, sure miss her. They are now 18 and 14 and the best part of my life. My four year old is my only boy and hope to get him this summer.

    The second admendment GUARANTEES the other nine and the Constitution!
