Your pregnant partner may be moody, emotional and even unpredictable due to hormonal changes. What’s a baby daddy to do? Pamper and romance her like crazy with 10 Ways to make your pregnant wife feel loved. But why is it so important that you make the woman who is carrying your child feel good about herself?
When I was pregnant with my daughter a million moons ago you couldn’t have paid me one million dollars to pose in a slinky, gauzy Madonna style boudoir shoot on the beach. In fact, the last thing I wanted to do was have anyone look at me or be looked at. I hated being pregnant -there I said. What I wanted most of all was to be pampered and reminded that I was loved by my spouse “he got it very wrong the first time but licked his wounds and learned how to get it much better my second time around”.
Suffice it to say looking back on both of my pregnancies this list of 10 ways to make your pregnant wife feel loved would have been a list I would’ve wanted someone to give my husband -and especially for him to write me a note to remind me of my pre bad assery and that as soon as I popped out the babies I’d be back to being one of those totally badass women.
The bottom line is that A healthy state of mind is very important for a pregnant woman because many people believe that the unborn child is aware of the mother’s emotions and feelings. By helping your baby mama feel good about herself, you will create a happier atmosphere surrounding her pregnancy which could result in an easier birthing process.
A guy should be sensitive to a pregnant woman’s needs because her hormones are fluctuating now and she may be more emotional. Her body is also changing shape which may make her feel unsexy and unattractive. A pregnant woman needs a lot of reassurance that she is still attractive to you and that you love her and the baby and will be supportive through the pregnancy even after the baby is born.
Make sure you communicate positive and loving statements to her on a regular basis and go the extra mile to make her feel special by showering her with attention. And keep reading for 10 Ways to make your pregnant wife feel loved and sweep her off of her [probably very swollen] feet!
1. Pick or buy her some flowers.
Flowers always cheer up any situation and since many pregnant women become more sensitive to smells, some sweet smelling flowers placed next to her bed can help her dreams become even sweeter.
And you can arrange them in a lovely Jonathan Adler Futura Circles Vase .
2. Foot rubs
Give your pregnant baby mama a foot rub with some exotic, sweet-smelling essential oils.
She is probably on her feet working a lot and exhausted. Plus, the additional new weight can cause tired feet and an achey back. A foot rub does wonders to lift a pregnant woman’s spirit.
3. Make dinner AND clean up afterwards.
Your pregnant lady is most likely having all sorts of food cravings so prepare her favorite meal from beginning to end by going shopping, cooking and cleaning up. Make it special by playing her favorite music, lighting some candles and serving her.
She will love being waited on and appreciate you preparing the foods she is craving.
4. Let her sleep in.
Being pregnant can be physically exhausting. Give your baby mama the morning off while you take care of chores or whatever else needs to be done so she can catch up on some much needed rest.
5. Be creative.
If you can write, write her a love poem on a pretty note card. Give your pregnant lady extra special attention while she is pregnant so she feels supported and loved.
6. Schedule a spa day for her.
Nothing will make a pregnant woman feel more pampered and rejuvenated than a day at a spa or even an at home spa.
7. Pack a picnic
Spend the day outside in a beautiful location and tell her how much she means to you.
8. Surprise her with a weekend getaway.
It doesn’t have to be anything fancy but just go somewhere together so you can spend some quality time in a stress-free environment with each other.
9. Buy her something.
Buy her a new outfit, a piece of jewelry, a new pair of shoes, anything to help her feel attractive again. If you buy her clothing, by her something loose, flowing and comfortable not tight fitting.
10. Touch her.
Kiss her, hug her, stroke her, cuddle with her and share your dreams with her. Physical touch is healing and when you are showering the woman who is carrying your child with attention and touch, how can she not feel attractive again?

With all my pregnancies, it was such a relief for me to have my husband cook dinner at least once a week. During the last trimester when I all I want to do is to lay down and rest, he made sure the rest of the family had a good meal.
My husband did a great job of letting me know how much he loved me through all three of my pregnancies. He took so much of the work off of me, and he always told me I was pretty. That’s a big deal when you’re in the last trimester, and you feel like a landlocked whale.

This is a sweet list for husbands to cater to their pregnant wives more. Definitely a surprise baby moon but unlimited foot rubs and supplying her food cravings is really helpful!
I used to love getting foot rubs when I was pregnant. My feet hurt so bad from standing all day, and having that extra weight bearing down really made for sore legs and feet. Just a simple rub at the end of the day made me feel so loved and pampered!
