Wow that's really shameful that people take offense at anything these days .....

Sure it's not a logical thing to say but so what at least he's proud to say it. As opposed to telling you how they did it and when.

So "they" managed to slip one past the goalie. Yay for them. Happens every day in the NHL. And to millions of couples throughout the world. I couldn't care less.

When my X was pregnant with our 1st child I would say "We're having a baby" but after that it was always "My wife is pregnant".
"We're pregnant" usually indicates a first born and it really didn't matter how it is said. I am happy for them. Plus, I've heard pregnant women say "We're pregnant".

Even tho it was her being pregnant, it affected my life too. Maybe not in the physical way so much but certainly in other parts of my life. Especially the first. Increased stress, worry and concern, I felt closer to her, more of a man than ever before. Her pregnancies changed me.

Yes, it can be tough on a guy for sure in many different ways.
I think it has quite the impact on both, and none of this you can even begin to fathom during pregnancy if it's the first.
But as long as a man doesn't get morning sickness, larger & sensitive breasts, aching joints & back, feeling the fluttering of the first movements in his belly, etc etc. he is not pregnant.

Each have their role to play and deserve credit where it's due.

I know for all four pregnacies I had psychosematic symptoms including swollen ankles. I am a lil more empathic than most people allow. My dr told me it was 'normal'.

I must also add that I have utmost respect for any woman who is pregnant or has been. Part of being part of the pregnacy means you (the man) provids more care, understanding and gentleness. More as the pregnacy changes terms. She is expeiencing mental and physical changes and challenges I, as a man, will NEVER experience. Even after the pregnacy she is vulnerable to changes I will never experience. Showing love and support for her is just as imporatant as caring for the child.

I was in the delivery room for each of my children's births.

I gave birth in our own bed both times, with the midwife, the maternity assistant and my husband present :)
I wouldn't know how I could've done it without him. Apart from the professionals, I needed his support and presence.
I can understand though that this in itself can be somewhat traumatic to a man, although this may vary per man of course. But feeling utterly helpless when seeing the woman you love in pain, seeing her passion flower change in a birthing canal etc. etc.
And being ordered around by the midwife (my second came within 1,5 hrs so there was need for speed, hihi). Boil water, get towels, etc. etc.
Those are things we don't see and don't have to deal with. For us it's the unbelievable force of nature raging through your body and dealing with that.
I think this is why in the old days men weren't present during birth?

But I sure respect all that men do and have to go through during pregnancy and delivery.
I never understood women who swear and cuss at their man during childbirth.

She didn't get knocked up all by herself.

good feeling with happiness

Agreed...

She can get her own damn icecream and pickles....

Amazing that a number of men now have knee-jerk reactions because they hear they cannot be pregnant. I thought this was taught in elementary school. It shouldn't be new news, nor reason to have an ego reaction.

I think it's fantastic dudes can't get pregnant.
Eff that, and Eff all the people that dismisses science!

Once is annoying. But, people do get excited.

Twice, would make me question the IQ of the person
speaking.

Third time, would be the point, where the expectant idiots
are no longer allowed to speak to me again. Ever.
