Husband Gains Sympathy Weight

Did Your Spouse Gain Sympathy Weight?

March 24, 2008

Expectant women crave everything from pickles to chili peppers and sometimes their better halves become partners in crime.

While pregnant with me, my mom couldn't get enough French vanilla ice cream covered in fudge. And, my dad was the one who drove out and bought it. Naturally slim, the excursions packed close to twenty pounds on him.

Did your cravings affect your companion?

No, he didn't gain a pound but I guess all the running around he had to do for me whipped him in shape.

My hubby ate almost everytime I ate and everything too. Maybe so I wouldn't feel like I was eating alone. lol So he probably gained about an extra 20lbs. But we're both working on getting rid of it.

NO, my husband eats sweets every night but does he gain one ounce? Noooo, only I get to feel like a big blimp! :evil:

Mine LOST weight while I was pregnant. His job changed a little and got more physical so he dropped weight in the last few months of my pregnancy. I would say that I was "finding" all the weight he was losing.

My husband put on about 25 lbs., half what I did. Yes half. I couldn't stay away from the french fries.

Mine put on more weight than I did. He was devistated, but I changed up our diet the last month or so and he learned to toss out what i couldn't finish and he dropped most before the baby came.

My husband never gained any sympathy weight. I gained 25 lbs total and he is/was very conscious of his body.

Now nearing the end of my pregnancy (only 8 weeks to go!) my hubby still hasn't gained a thing! He's LOST in fact! I'm insanely jealous.

yeah he definitely gained sympathy weight but it was only 10lbs maybe 15 and i couldn't even notice ...he said what really got him was the fact that before i got pregnant, we went to the gym together all the time, 4-5 times a week, to play racquetball and work out, and he said he lost his motivation since i stopped going as well
