Does Your Man Have Your Pregnancy Symptoms

Couvade Syndrome – When male partners experience pregnancy symtoms!

Yes!!! Its true he really could be suffering with back pain and nausea.

Dads to be can have similar symptoms to yours….from swollen breasts, morning sickness and even a growing tummy!! Freaky right….. but Couvade Syndrome is a medical condition.

Couvade Syndrome is an involuntary manifestation of pregnancy in men whose partners are expecting – a “Phantom Pregnancy”

So when your man complains of a bad back, bloating and those pesky food cravings of mint sauce on ice cream at 2am…..he could be genuine!

These guys did not want to miss out on all the action………

These phantom pregnancy symptoms tend to begin in the 1st trimester, disappear through the 2nd and return for the 3rd!

Phycologists believe the cause could be due to the emotional attachment they have to their pregnancy partners and unborn baby, or it it could be down to the anxiety of becoming a new Dad.
