If your pregnant wife's character and behavior have changed, then you should prepare in advance for this. There are some tips to help you get through this period without unnecessary fights and scandals.
Instructions
Step 1
Read the literature on the effects of hormones on the female body during pregnancy. As soon as you find out how difficult it is for a woman to change the hormonal background, you immediately stop paying attention to her quirks, mood swings, whims.
Step 2
Make it a joke. Not always out loud. Maybe a broken nail is not a problem for you, but for your pregnant wife it is a tragedy on a universal scale. Do not laugh at her out loud, laugh to yourself, and have pity on your spouse.
Step 3
Count to ten in your mind at critical moments. This is an old psychological trick. When you are on the verge of flaring up and swearing, close your eyes, count to ten, and exhale sharply. The attack of aggression and anger must release. Remember that a pregnant woman requires attention, while she herself does not know what exactly she wants at one time or another. Don't try to understand it, just love and take it for granted.
Step 4
Check with your mom. In the end, she gave birth to you, carried you. Who, if not her, know how difficult this time in life is and how it affects the character. Perhaps learning about the quirks your mom was having while she was carrying you can make it easier for you to cope with your spouse's character change.
Step 5
Reassure yourself that this is temporary. Since the change in character in a woman during pregnancy depends precisely on the hormonal background, you can console yourself with the fact that after childbirth, the spouse will return to normal and become the same. Perhaps this will make it easier for you to endure the quarrelsomeness, hysteria and whimsy of your wife.
Step 6
Get away from the situation. At critical moments, when you no longer have the strength to endure, just think about something detached. For example, what you need to do tomorrow without fail, and what things can still wait. Remember that your spouse's pregnancy is your merit, too, and you are to blame for the change in her behavior and character. Do not swear or get annoyed. You just need to get through this period, and your wife also has to give birth.
Step 7
Don't try to please your wife in everything. First, it still won't work. A pregnant woman does not always understand what she specifically wants and how she should behave in a given situation. Don't try to guess how to please her. There is a risk that you will be accused of misunderstanding. Wait patiently for your spouse to decide. Secondly, she will get used to it. You may get tired of being henpecked after a while. Just love your wife, protect her during this difficult period, help her.
