1. Common changes in the relationship between husband and wife during pregnancy

The body produces a lot of progesterone, which can stimulate your emotions, triggering your panic and anxiety. Many women feel the fear of being abandoned early in their pregnancy, so they often make unreasonable demands.
2. Husband and wife feel differently
You'll feel like a mom because of your growing belly, but your husband may not feel like a father until the baby is born, making it feel like you're not in the same boat.
3. He is excluded
Aside from being congratulated by everyone, dad doesn't feel the change in pregnancy because everything revolves around you, you can let your husband feel the change by rubbing his belly, or talk to him about how to play with the baby.
4. Get closer
There will be many interesting changes in your body during pregnancy, such as hiccups and farts, which may make you a little embarrassed at first, but it’s better to look at each other and laugh with your husband to resolve the embarrassment and become close.
5. Greatly reduced sexual activity
During pregnancy, sexual activity may be reduced due to morning sickness and discomfort, and then the belly will become larger, and a series of busy schedules will also affect the number of sexual activities, but you still need to remember to maintain basic intimate contact.
2. Tips to improve the relationship between husband and wife

Make a list of all the things you like about your husband and what you want your baby to be like. Let your partner know how happy you are doing this and make him feel like a part of the team.

3. Let him organize the housework
Ask your husband to help with the housework and keep him busy by preparing your baby's stuff, like researching car seats, something he'll love to research and learn about.

Having your husband feel your tummy bump will allow the two of them to interact, talk to your baby, and play your husband's favorite music, which will deepen your connection to the birth of your baby.
5. Give him a picture of the baby
Constantly giving your husband the latest pictures of your baby, or your pregnancy selfies, is a great way to involve him in your changes and let him feel more of your baby's growth.
