1-. DON’T TALK AS IF THE CHILD IS UNWANTED
Don’t make your wife and the child feel abandoned, even if the pregnancy was not planned
2-. DO PRAY FOR YOUR CHILD
Don’t wait for the child to be born to start praying for the child. Pray for the child even when in the womb
3-. DON’T CHEAT
When your wife is carrying your child, don’t dishonour her by entertaining another woman/women
4-. DO LEARN MORE ABOUT PARENTING
There is a lot of material about parenting, get knowledgeable. Even if it is not your first child, you can always improve on the kind of father you are

If she develops mood swings, weird cravings or some mannerisms that are peculiar. If she struggles to sleep at night or becomes moody; understand her. It could be the hormones or the pressure

Every woman is different. Ask her how best you can support her.
13-. DON’T DETACH YOURSELF
Don’t show disinterest in her and the child. Take her for check ups if you can, find out progress, come home early. A lot of men start to disappear during pregnancy because they don’t know how to be there for the wife and children. Don’t let that be you…CONTINUE READING>>
