She gets all the attention. Doctors, grandparents, friends, all of them congratulate her, coo over her belly, and ask about her wellbeing. That’s okay, because she’s the one that’s carrying (and building!) your child. But just because she’s the star doesn’t mean you don’t hold an important supporting role! Talk to your partner, tell her how you feel, and share your concerns and fears. Sincerity, honesty, and compassion are very important to strengthening your family bonds during this exciting but stressful time.
