Didn't really have much experience, though d babe took in immediately after wedding. I must confess I'd a strangely strong wife. I neva saw her vomit, was not sick 4 up to a week thro out d 9 months. She was only weak in d mornings, neva allowed me 2 cook 4 her, even d few times we went 2 d market 2geda was at my insistence. It was only much later in d pregnancy, did i start shaving her FCT, and dt was cos she could no longer do it. She told me she was pregnant just last night, n i look 4ward 2 a bigger role ds time, since we've a 2+ daughter in addition to cater for.

dayohope1: I enjoyed my wife when she was pregnant as I had no younger one to take care of. I learnt to do without those sumptuous meals she used to cook before getting pregnant. Sometimes, I soaked garri at night with suya especially in her third trimester but ensured she ate some good food.
I was with her in the labour room when my baby girl came and felt like crying (though didn't) when I saw live what women go through putting to bed. It's not easy o. In fact, any man that witnesses that and still treats his wife badly needs his head examined. Today, when she does anything that offends me, I remember those days and that day of delivery and just overlook it.
You are sooooo right bro! Hopefully when all these small boys spitting shit finally mature and av a family of theirs ,sey will start reasoning better

I was quite unlucky that i ended up with a cruel human as husband (now ex). 3 months after marriage when i didn't take in, he threatened to impregnate another woman soon. Well i finally got pregnant 6 months after marriage and i saw hell. I have never told anyone about this experience cos am a bit ashamed of it. He wasn't that happy over the news cos he already has a son from his ex fiancee (she ran away due to constant battery and i got to know late). My pregnancy was quite tough in the first 2months with the vomiting and all. He never showed concern when i was throwing up, weak, coughing, sick etc. We were married and living together but i was alone, terribly lonely. I still did all the chores, i mean every single thing including working 8am to 6pm daily. At a time i had severe cough, catarrh, nausea, vomiting and fever, this man opened up his mouth one night i just finished throwing up and said that "God was punishing me for my sins", that i wasn't sick cos of pregnancy but it was all punishment from God. I told him the only reason i was sick was because i was pregnant meaning that the sin i committed was sleeping with him as my husband. A day later he told me i was the most unimportant person in his life! Anyway long story short we seperated when i was about two months pregnant. He told me to get rid of the pregnancy since we were seperating and he proved his point by refusing to give me money for ante natal and by trying to kill the baby in my womb when he battered me but he didn't succeed. With the help of God i was able to carry my baby perfectly fine and put to bed safely. He is about 5months old now and indeed a blessing to my life and i love him with my with my life. If i had stayed with that man, i would have either lost the pregnancy or committee suicide cos of frustration or would have been pushed to the wall to do the unthinkable.

Wow Cindy, what a horrible, disturbing story. Sounds like you fell into the hands of a mad man there. I thank God for you that you made it out with your life and for your new bundle of joy. May God heal you, protect and provide for you both and may your son bring you joy always.

chaircover: Congratulations Opera. Wishing you both a happy 9 month ride and a beautiful bundle of joy at the end of it. Amen.

One thing I will say and I believe that many other women will say is that how well a man looks after you during pregnancy goes a long way in increasing the deep love & respect that you have for the man. In my case it makes me overlook some "offences" or "omissions" that my husband may commit. So what you guys do is not a wasted effort or all for nothing.

Well said Chaircover.

My husband was very very supportive. Never allow me to do any house chores. Caring and loving, my weird craving then was iced fan youghurt, trust him to buy as much as i want for me. I am so bless to have him as my husband. Looking forward to another pregnancy and enjoyment!

My sister/brother you don't have to believe if you don't want to.Even i find it difficult to believe that i still have my sanity after the cruel treatment i recieved during 7months of marriage to a man who married me. Even my mum didn't believe me initially when we first seperated until we discovered that he planned to destroy my life and from text messages he sent to me after i put to birth. The worse is that this man looks like an angel, that is he looks extremely innocent but totally dark inside.
Infact am even glad that i have been able to let this out because i didn't include it in my personal thread. Its all history now and i give God thanks daily for sparing my life. I know that God will make things right for me because till date i still can't figure out what i did to him and i never forced him into marriage.

i went through your other posts and noticed you did indeed mention things of this nature before.

well, I think your ex might have some mental issues, going by what you described here.

prettycindy - so I wasn't the only one that went thru hell during my pregnancy. Its almost like we went thru the same thing - my ex even denied the pregnancy initially. man i saw hell, even when I had a threatened miscarriage at 7 weeks he spent 2 days outside the home with one of his many girlfriends and refused to bring money for hospital visits.

he sent me abusive texts during the pregnancy and even after the baby was born - to date (and my daughter is almost 1 and a half) not one penny or call or text to ask if she is alive. High blood pressure almost killed me and my child while giving birth. but it is well o!!

Babygirl this is the time you should be praying seriously for God to direct a good man to you. While you are waiting for him to show up, please invest in prayers and ask God for the wisdom to choose the right man who will treat you like an angel. Goodluck.

I tried in my time o! But there was this time wifey craved for moi-moi around 9pm (she was 5mths+). Where will i find that in this place (Hull, England) at that time of the day. I took my car keys and drove off pretending to go look for it. I drove a few blocks down the road and parked, as i sat in the car thinking of what to do, naim sleep carry me.
I was woken by tappings on the windscreen. It was my wife and one oyinbo woman. Apparently, the woman saw my car and went to do "tatafo". My wife had the intension of coming to confront me and a "chic", only to find me sleeping. My intention was to past time a little so that by the i get back she would slept, but e no work.
However, she called a sis' who's married to an oyinbo man and she gave us bean flour and creyfish. By the d moi-moi ready 12midnight don pass. She still chop am. That day i almost "brake cup" (translate in yoruba).
