my bf during my pregnancy๐ฉ๐ฝโโค๏ธโ๐โ๐จ๐ผ!
after 4 years of being together we are expecting our first beautiful baby lilah in august! weโre so excited and ready for her to be here! these are just a few things my bf does to help me ease this pregnancy just a bit more ๐.
helps me with chores ๐งบ!
i (voluntarily) do all the chores around the house so some days when he sees i am needing just a bit of help (without me asking for help) he will offer every time! he never complains about how iโm cleaning sometimes just how slow iโm going (because even the slowness annoys me๐น)
asks me everyday how iโm feeling or if i need anything โค๏ธโ๐ฉน!
not a day goes by where he doesnโt ask how me or the baby are both doing. any foods iโm wanting, any medicine iโm needing for discomfort or morning sickness, etc! heโs a HUGE helper!
buys me things i donโt think i need (but actually do) without extra comments or complaints ๐ง ๐ฝโโ๏ธ!
even almost 7 months in he will asks me when he can buy my pregnancy pillow or belt! iโm stubborn and tell him 1) out bed isnโt big enough for a pillow and 2) i have 2 months left iโll stick it out but he still tells me heโll get it and he does!!
reminds me i am still beautiful in his eyes; COMPLIMENTS ๐!
being insecure during my pregnancy has impacted my mental health SO much and not in a good way. i struggled a lot with body image and thinking he wasnโt attracted to me anymore. whenever i say something about my body he never fails to reassure me that he seeโs me even more attractive now that i am pregnant (and not in a weird fetish way๐น)! he will hold me, kiss me, laugh with me, etc whenever i am down.
HEโS JUST SO AMAZING ๐ฉ๐ฝโโค๏ธโ๐โ๐จ๐ผ!!
iโm so glad heโs the father of my child! our characters and maturity levels have improved SO MUCH in the best ways possible after we found out i am pregnant. heโs been such a trooper throughout this process and never makes me feel bad about myself. i love him endlessly ๐ฅน!!!!!!!

Pregnancy can be a rollercoaster of emotions and physical changes. It's crucial for expecting mothers to have strong support systems. Many partners, like mine, step up during this time, offering help in various ways. From assisting around the house to providing emotional reassurance, supportive partners play a vital role in ensuring a smoother pregnancy journey. Research shows that support can positively affect maternal mental health, diminishing feelings of anxiety and insecurity often felt during pregnancy. Moreover, thoughtful gestures, such as buying essential items or simply asking about well-being, can enhance the bond between expecting parents. In sharing experiences like mine, we hope to inspire others while navigating this exciting yet challenging milestone in life. Ultimately, every small act of kindness contributes significantly to the overall pregnancy experience, making it more joyous and memorable. Supportive partners not only help with daily tasks but also boost confidence, reminding mothers-to-be of their beauty and strength as they prepare to welcome new life into the world.
