  I also got spider veins while pregnant with my son. They are generally harmless, the reason for them is that the pressure on the uterus from the baby is restricting blood flow somewhat. The good news is you can lessen the aches by raising your legs for ten minutes a day. Wearing support pantyhose also helps. The bad news is that once you get them, they never go away. Each pregnancy also tends to create new ones... However, the leg raises might also help with the itching. (That's probably also caused by poor circulation.)

  I'm sure my husband felt the same about a couple of the items, but he never ever made a peep about it ;-).

  Wow, some of those things are so damn superficial, seems as if you are a jerk! Get over it, and I am assuming, you wanted the kid, men want kids, yet don't want to take care of them, and have the wife change form, its called reality, not perfect land, I hope your wife does not read your blogs and you are much more sensitive to her, this is the most important time for her! Be a supportive husband, a---- , cuz if she stresses, all that is fed to the kid in the belly, that's why I am never having kids, because men are very ungrateful, and plus I can't stand them LOL, my two dogs will do very well thank you!

  Sounds like if she doesn't lose her excess weight like the actresses in a month, you are gonna start nit picking at her, don't you know pregancy = fat loose woman? That is the risk you took to having kids.

  I hate my big, huge body right now (32 weeks prego) but my husband loves it. He rubs my belly, tells me how sexy I look. Like the author, he tells me he sometimes just doesn't know how or where to touch me because I complain of the aches and pains. All in all, he has been a wonderful husband about his hormonal, pregnant wife and that is why I love him.

  wow!!! please do NOT listen to the negativity. If some people are more happy with their dogs then more power to them, I'm glad. But if that was me it doesn't mean I would have to go hating on someone for talking about his pregnant wife. And frankly I don't think he's being ungrateful, I actually think he's being super honest, something I'm sure his wife appreciates. I read your first article and thought it was cute, I like how this one just goes to show that sometimes it's not all glowing skin and big boobs... but it sounds like you are genuinely concerned about your wife, so props!!! Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy and I wish you the best for your future family! =D

  I don't take offense to this whatsoever! He's not being superficial, he's probably never seen his wife's body change so much. Good luck with the new little one!
