This issue is one of these that each man should avoid if he can. A pregnant woman is reduced to her basic instincts- eating, survival, which is directly connected to eating are the two most active instincts and we always have a great excuse which is: “the baby wants me to eat chocolate or Pizza” or anything else we feel like having.

And here go the next examples:

3. Judith the queen of chocolate and gym always kept her shape because of the 8 hours work out a day as a personal trainer. When she got pregnant she had to take it slow and easy in order not to create trouble during the pregnancy. Each man would say: “That is normal and as she doesn’t burn that many calories, she won’t need those masses of sweets”, this is where you guys are mistaken. WE NEED AT LEAST AS MUCH TO EAT! When you told her no matter who you are to her something like: “Don’t you think you had enough?” I tried it and believe me I hated myself afterwards, you were in a fix. This monologue came right after my question: “Oh great thank you, so you want to tell me that I am fat?! Super, why don’t you just line up with Nick? I am pregnant you insensitive piece of stone. Pregnant women grow bigger and I really don’t need another person complaining about my size”, there she started crying in order to increase the gravity of her tragedy, “do I have to be like you? Am I not enough being myself? Why do you complain? What is it to you whether I grow fat or not? My baby wants chocolate and you don’t know what it does if it doesn’t get it! It is kicking ME and not you!” This was the exact time of me making the next mistake. I asked her: “Don’t you think you are exaggerating a bit?” She almost ate me there. My luck was that I was not sweet enough!!!

4. going out for dinner in a group is another of these issues. If you really want to have a restaurant running from day one, organize that you have lots of pregnant women there. They eat not only amounts that normally only elephants eat but also you can have the oddest things on your menu and you will sell it like warm rolls in the morning. We went out in a group of 6 people one of them was Judith of course. We went to a pizza restaurant that Judith picked. The menu was more than strange. Who eats Pizza with fries as a topping??? The answer is JUDITH. We all went for a Pizza and I have to admit I couldn’t even finish a half, not only because of its size but also because of the fat amount. After the pizza most of us went for a tiramisu except for Judith, first she finished all the leftovers and then she went for another Pizza. After finishing that one too, she started this talk: “That is interesting” this is where she was expecting the question: “What” and we of course gave it to her. She answered: “I feel so full now and obviously the baby still needs some ice cream. I know I will vomit afterwards.” If you are expecting any logic behind it you are mistaken not only that there is none, dare not to organize the wanted ice-cream and she will ruin the entire dinner. If you organize it she will ruin it after she vomited as you have no understanding for her situation at all. You are a row insensitive, rude and senseless animal that doesn’t care about her problems. To satisfy a pregnant woman is only possible as long as she doesn’t know she is pregnant!

In order to show that you are on her side you have to ignore a pregnant woman’s strange behaviours and support her even if you don’t understand what she is talking about, defend it with your LIFE. Never ask why she does things the way she does them and pretend that everybody is her enemy. She and her baby are the centre of universe and you know so- that is the solution to any difficulty you might have with her.
