10 fun ways to include your husband in your pregnancy. Including your husband in your pregnancy is such an important thing to do.These tips will show you the 10 fun ways where you can do just that! You are not alone in your pregnancy your husband is with you.

Did you know that some fathers to be, do not feel any connection to their baby until their baby is born? That is mind blowing to me but it does happen. Think about it, pregnant women are the one who feel the baby kick and move, we experience morning sickness and food aversions and everything else that entails being pregnant.

You have this emotional and physical connection to your growing baby that your husband does not feel or can’t even relate to. That is why, it’s important for you to find fun ways to include your husband in your pregnancy. You want him to be excited and feel very much part of your pregnancy journey.

MY LATEST VIDEOS

You are not alone in this, your hubby is right there with you. He will hold your hands through it all and make you feel beautiful even if you’re puking in the toilet. Make him feel special, make him feel the same connection that you feel with your baby. He wants to be part of this, he wants to be included in your your pregnancy.

10 fun ways to include your husband in your pregnancy

Go to your doctor’s appointments together

One fun way to include your husband in your pregnancy is by going to your doctor’s appointment together. Even if he can’t go to all of them, just make sure he at least goes with you to some. This will allow him to ask any questions that he may have about the baby and about you!

Sonogram appointments are always fun, he will have the chance to see the baby, listen to the baby’s heartbeat and watch the baby move.

Keep him updated

One thing that I used to do with my hubby was to keep him updated about our baby. I would have my favorite pregnancy app in my phone, and everyday I would share with him the size of our baby and what fruit or vegetable it resembled.

Things like this will definitely help you include your husband in your pregnancy. If you’re reading pregnancy books and find something interesting and fun to share, then share it with him! Keep him updated and always in the know with everything that has to do with your baby and pregnancy.

Plan the gender reveal party together 

Another fun way to include your husband in your pregnancy is to plan your gender reveal party together. Make him feel part of it by asking him what he thinks would be a fun way to reveal the sex of the baby. Do not just tell him your ideas and that’s how it’s going to be done. But, instead ask him what he thinks and let him be excited about the process too.

You can both come up with a really cool and memorable gender reveal, which makes it even that much special.

Talk about your baby

Why not talk about your baby and have fun with it. Ask him questions like “who do you think the baby will look like” to ” Who’s personality will the baby have, yours or your husband’s”. You will be surprised how easily you and your husband will bond over a simple conversation about the baby.

Take maternity pictures together

Maternity pictures rule! I am obsessed with them because it’s such a personal and sweet moment that is captured forever in your life. You can both decide what style you want your maternity pictures to be like or if you want an indoor or outdoor photoshoot.

I am can guarantee that you both will have a blast during the photoshoot!

Let him feel the baby kicking

Another fun way to include your husband in your pregnancy and really make him feel part of this amazing experience is to have him feel the baby kick. What a personal and unbelievable moment that will be, your hubby will feel so connected to your baby.

Every time your baby kicks while your hubby is touching your bump is like the baby is saying “hi, daddy”. They can totally bond like this and it will be awesome for you to experience too.

Tell him to talk to the baby

You can definitely encourage your husband to talk and even sing to your belly. Your baby can hear you, your baby can feel that you are both his/her parents. Make the best of it, by playing songs and talking to your baby because your are bonding as a family.

Every time my hubby would put salsa music on the radio, my first born would kick because she knew that was her daddy. Every morning my hubby would play salsa and would sing to our baby. He also did this with our twins, it was so much fun to watch and experience.

Plan your baby shower together

A fun major event during your pregnancy is having a baby shower. If you are the one planning it, include your husband in the process. Even if you think he might not care much about the decorations or food.

You can give him small tasks to complete and this will make him feel like you were thinking about him during “your” special day. If someone else is planning your baby shower and it will be a total surprise for you, then your hubby may want to partner up with that person.

Agree on the baby’s name

Oh the big task of naming your child. This may make or break your relationship, I’m just kidding or maybe not. Naming your child is a big responsibility that you both have. So, why not make it fun and throw around your favorite names. Jot them down on a piece of paper, and keep eliminating the one you both don’t agree on until you decide on one that you both love.

This can take hours or even days, don’t worry because you both will eventually pick out the right name for your baby. Agreeing on your baby’s name is another fun way to include your husband in your pregnancy.

Talk about being parents for the first, second or third time

Start a fun conversation with your husband about what you both think will be like as parents. Talk about your parenting styles and what fun things you will do as a family.

Talk about your fears, your excitement and what you are both looking forward to the most about being parents. I truly feel that having a conversation with your husband about your feelings towards your pregnancy, giving birth and about being a mom will bring both of you closer.

Quick recap:

Your husband is as invested in your pregnancy as you are, he may not show it as much but he wants you to include him in your pregnancy. Ask him to go with you to your next doctor’s appointment and see how his eyes light up when he hears your baby’s heartbeat.

Planning a baby shower and maternity shoot takes time and patience, you can ask your husband for advice and make him feel part of it. Show him the cool pregnancy apps that you read everyday to keep him updated on the baby and show him your sonogram pictures. I’m sure he will definitely feel included in your pregnancy.

Why not sit down one night and talk to your husband about your feelings of becoming parents for the first, second or third time. You can even go out on a date and bond that way.Your husband deserves to feel included in your pregnancy and I know you wouldn’t want it any other way.

¿Sabía usted que algunos hombres que van hacer papas, no sienten ninguna conexión con su bebé hasta que nazca? Eso es incredible para mi, pero sucede. Piénsalo, las mujeres embarazadas son las que sienten al bebé patear y moverse, experimentamos las náuseas matutinas y las aversiones al alimento y todo lo demás que conlleva estar embarazada.

Tienes esta conexión emocional y física con tu bebé en crecimiento y tu marido no siente ni siquiera puede relacionarse. Por eso, es importante que encuentres formas divertidas de incluir a tu esposo en tu embarazo. Quieres que esté emocionado y se sienta parte de tu viaje de embarazo.

No estás sol\a en esto, tu esposo está ahí contigo. Él agarrara tus manos a través de todo esto y te hará sentir hermosa incluso si estás vomitando en el baño. Haga que se sienta especial, hágale sentir la misma conexión que tu sientes con tu bebé. Él quiere ser parte de esto, él quiere ser incluido en tu embarazo.

10 maneras divertidas de incluir a tu esposo en tu embarazo

Vaya a las citas médicas juntas

Una manera divertida de incluir a tu esposo en tu embarazo es ir a la cita de tu médico juntos. Incluso si no puede ir a todos ellos, sólo asegúrese de que por lo menos vaya contigo a algunos. Esto le permitirá hacer cualquier pregunta que pueda tener sobre el bebé e incluso sobre ti!

Las citas de sonograma siempre son divertidas, él tendrá la oportunidad de ver al bebé, escuchar los latidos del corazón y ver cómo se mueve.

Mantenerlo actualizado

Una cosa que solía hacer con mi marido era mantenerlo informado sobre nuestro bebé. Tenia mi aplicación de embarazo favorita en mi teléfono, y todos los días compartia con él el tamaño de nuestro bebé y qué fruta o verdura se parecía.

Cosas como esta definitivamente le ayudará a incluir a su marido en tu embarazo. Si estás leyendo libros de embarazo y encuentras algo interesante y divertido para compartir, entonces compartelo con él! Mantenerlo actualizado con todo lo que tiene que ver con su bebé y el embarazo es algo importante.

Planifique la fiesta de revelación de sexo juntos

Otra forma divertida de incluir a su esposo en su embarazo es planificar su fiesta de revelar el sexo de tu bebe juntos. Haga que se sienta parte de eso preguntándole qué piensa que sería una manera divertida de revelar el sexo de su bebé. No se limite a decirle sus ideas y así es como se va a hacer. Pero, en su lugar, pregúntele lo que el piensa y déjelo entusiasmarse por el proceso también.

Pueden ambos venir para arriba con una revelación del sexo realmente fresca y memorable que la hace incluso mas especial.

Hable acerca de su bebé

¿Por qué no hablar de su bebé y divertirse con él. Hágale preguntas como “a quién crees que se parecera el bebé” a “¿Que personalidad piensa que tendrá el bebé, el tuyo o el de tu marido”. Usted se sorprenderá de la facilidad con que tu y tu esposo se unirán a una simple conversación sobre su bebé.

Tomar fotos de maternidad juntos

Me facinan las fotos de maternidad! Estoy obsesionada con ellos porque es un momento tan personal y dulce que se capturara para siempre en tu vida. Tu puede decidir qué estilo desea que sus fotos de maternidad sean o si desean una sesión de fotos en el interior o al aire libre.

¡Puedo garantizar que ambos tendrán una diversion durante el photoshoot!

Déjelo sentir el bebé pateando

Otra forma divertida de incluir a su marido en su embarazo y realmente hacerlo sentir parte de esta increíble experiencia es hacer que él se sienta la patada del bebé. Que momento personal e increíble que será, su esposo se sentirá tan conectado a su bebé.

Cada vez que tu bebé patea mientras su esposo está tocando su barriga es como el bebé le está diciendo “hola, papá”. Pueden enlazar totalmente con esto y será impresionante para usted ver también.

Dile que hable con el bebé

Definitivamente puede animar a su marido a hablar e incluso cantar a su vientre. Su bebé puede oírle, su bebé puede sentir que ambos son sus padres. Haga lo mejor de él, jugando canciones y hablando con su bebé porque se uniran como familia.

Cada vez que mi esposo ponía música de salsa en la radio, mi primera hija se echaba a patadas porque sabía que era su papá. Cada mañana mi esposo eschuchaba salsa y cantaba a nuestro bebé. Él también hizo esto con nuestros mellizos, era tan divertido ver.

Planee su fiesta de bebé juntos

Un acontecimiento importante e divertido durante tu embarazo es tener tu fiesta del bebé. Si usted es la que lo va a  planear, incluya a su esposo en el proceso. Incluso si usted piensa que él no puede importarle mucho sobre la decoración o la comida, sólo pregúntele cuál es su opinión al respecto.

Usted puede darle pequeñas tareas para completar y esto le hará sentir como si tu estuvieras pensando en él durante “tu” día especial. Si alguien está planeando tu baby shower y será una sorpresa total para ti, entonces su esposo puede querer asociarse con esa persona.

Ponganse de acuerdo con el nombre del bebé

Oh, la gran tarea de nombrar a su hijo. Esto puede hacer o romper su relación, sólo estoy bromeando o tal vez no. Nombrar a su hijo es una gran responsabilidad que usted y su esposo tienen que hacer. Así que, ¿por qué no hacerlo divertido y tirar alrededor sus nombres favoritos. Anótelas en un pedazo de papel, y seguir eliminando lo que ambos no están de acuerdo hasta que decidan en in nombre que ambos aman. 

Esto puede tomar horas o incluso días, no se preocupe porque ambos elegirán eventualmente el nombre correcto para su bebé. El acuerdo sobre el nombre de su bebé es otra forma divertida de incluir a su esposo en su embarazo.

Hablar sobre ser padres por primera, segunda o tercera vez

Comience una divertida conversación con su marido acerca de lo que ambos piensan que serán como padres. Hable acerca de sus estilos de crianza y qué cosas divertidas  harán como una familia.

Hable acerca de sus miedos, su emoción y lo que ambos están esperando con interés el ser padres. Realmente siento que tener una conversación con tu esposo acerca de tus sentimientos hacia su embarazo, dar a luz y ser madre les acercará a ambos.

Recapitulación rápida:

Su esposo está tan invertido en tu embarazo como tu, puede que no lo muestre tanto, pero quiere que lo incluya en tu embarazo. Pídale que vaya contigo a la próxima cita con su médico y vea cómo se encienden sus ojos cuando escucha los latidos de su bebé.

Planificación de un baby shower y fotos de maternidad toma tiempo y paciencia, puede pedirle a tu esposo consejo y hacerle sentir parte de eso. Muéstrele las aplicaciones de embarazo que usted lee diariamente para mantenerlo puesto al día sobre el bebé y demostrarle sus imágenes del sonograma. Estoy seguro de que definitivamente se sentirá incluido en ktu embarazo.

¿Por qué no sentarse una noche y hablar con su esposo acerca de sus sentimientos de convertirse en padres por primera, segunda o tercera vez. Usted puede incluso salir en una cita y el enlace de esa manera. Su esposo merece sentirse incluido en su embarazo y sé que no lo quieres de ninguna otra manera.

 Hugs, Ros Emely

    These are great tips! My husband was really involved in my first pregnancy, but by my third, he didn’t care a ton!

    Thank you Chelsea!! Yes it’s always exciting the first pregnancy. Once the third comes along that excitement fades a little. That’s why it’s a great idea to still involve the husband’s in our pregnancy, so they can still be excited even if it’s our third or fourth pregnancy.

    Yup, so true! My husband was very excited for both pregnancies, and it really helped keep my mood up! I didn’t feel at all like I was doing this alone. Even things like going to every appointment and being right there during the decision-making process.

    Thanks Nina! You’re right when our husbands are equally excited we feel more content and not alone. It’s important for husbands to be there for doctor’s appointments and important decision-making, it will make them feel involved and part of the pregnancy.
