A woman who finds out that she is pregnant, first of all, wants to share the news with her man. But sometimes the fear of the possible reaction of the future dad scares the pregnant woman. But for a man, pregnancy is a shock. Even if it is desirable, surprise and awareness can lead him to the most unusual reactions.
The reaction of men
Men can react violently or aloof to pregnancy. Sometimes the emotions of the future dad are even stronger than those of the future mother. It depends on the character of the man, his desire to have children and his wealth in society. Emotionality of a man can be connected with the fact that for a woman pregnancy and motherhood are what they are preparing for, a part and, possibly, the meaning of life, but for men it is a shock. Even if the pregnancy was planned and the partners have been preparing for it for a long time, as a result, it will still be unexpected for a man.
And if there is no reaction?
There is a category of men who do not react in any way to pregnancy. It's kind of standard for them. They consider pregnancy and paternity the norm. The downside of such people is that they react negatively to any whims of a pregnant woman. For them, there should be no manifestation of pregnancy on the part of the woman.
The joy and jubilation of men
Having learned about pregnancy, a man can rejoice and rejoice for a long time. Such a man may disappear after the news for a couple of hours, and then return with a hundred roses in gratitude to the expectant mother. They can start circling and kissing their pregnant woman. There will be no limit to their joy. For him, pregnancy is a miracle that he has. Throughout pregnancy, such men show great care and concern for their beloved. Very often they indulge all her whims.
Anxiety and shock
Some men are anxious. For them, information about pregnancy can be a real shock. After all, men are not constantly being prepared for future fatherhood. And this anxiety arises from ignorance and uncertainty. Such men can both show this insecurity throughout pregnancy, or they can worry more than a pregnant woman.
Hyperresponsibility
For some men, the news of pregnancy can lead to increased responsibility. They begin to work with special zeal. Sometimes they find a part-time job. For such men, the main thing is to achieve the proper material level for their family. The downside of this reaction is that a woman may feel lonely due to the fact that a man is constantly working.
How to support a man
Do not be upset if the man's reaction turned out to be the one that was calculated. Just try to teach a man to think about pregnancy, about a future baby. Let him understand that this is not as scary as it seems at first glance. Talk to him calmly. And remember: there is no need to be nervous now.
