Dear Nissan9~
Welcome back and I cant's say I'm surprised both you and your wife are finding this strange territory difficult. As some people seem to sail though pregnancy and others have a pretty hard time I can only speak from my own experience, others many have better ideas.
My wife found her body did not behave as it always used to, that her emotions swung wildly and there was of course the worry of the delivery, the health of the baby and what life would be lie after. She also worried about me.
I found on many occasions it was not possible to have a sensible logical conversation and was often tempted to be cross. I quickly learned however the only answer to many situations was to cut across all the conversation, tell my wife I loved her and made her a cup of tea (not in the best china). If I could make her laugh that was a bonus.
I also called on her mum to come over frequently.
Doing household chores helped, as did accompanying her to the ante-natal classes. I also used to buy crates of ginger ale, as my wife felt nauseous for a pretty long time.
It is a difficult time, I wish all three of you the best
Croix
