There's no question that mom will be carrying most of the burden of pregnancy. Assisting her during pregnancy will help her save energy giving her a better chance to stay healthy during her term.
Help her with 'safe' foods - Mom's nutritionist will be giving a list of foods to eat and ones to avoid. When dad also heeds this nutritional advice, mom will be far less tempted by bad foods!
Help with housework - Pregnancy will zap mom's energy. The biggest drain is usually household chores. Grab a feather duster and come to the rescue!
Do the laundry - Mom will have a hard time toting laundry baskets, leaning into the washer and bending in front of the dryer. Help her with the laundry.
Give her encouragement - Let her know she still looks beautiful. Better yet, tell her she's never looked more beautiful!
Prepare the paperwork - Maternity leave, insurance companies and your hospital will be the source of plenty of paperwork. This is a great way for dads-to-be to offer assistance.
Have fun - Both expectant parents should enjoy the blessed event which is pregnancy. The YeahBaby list of pregnancy activities is full of ways to enjoy this wonderful event.
The mom-to-be will deeply appreciate assistance during her 9 month term. Fathers can come to the rescue with a little help.
