59 Tips for Pregnant Men Plus 1 - Thomas King
Foreword
I was so eager when I began to read this book and was overwhelmed that Thomas would ask me to write the foreword. This book is a much-needed tool in our society today. As one who is always searching for material that will give me practical and encouraging information for different subjects, I must say that I was excited when I started reading this book. The sensitivity that Thomas writes with is something to pay attention to.
While pregnant, there are many emotions and feelings that surface and sometimes we don’t understand how to handle them. Men, get ready. If you will read and apply these tips, this book will assist you in making you and your wife’s childbearing season bearable
and possibly enjoyable. You will not only reap a bountiful harvest, but you will be able to make wonderful memories to share with your child in later years.
As a pastor, part of my obligation is to encourage others and assist them in their walks of life to become productive contributors to the Kingdom of God. I believe this book will be a great tool of practical applications to help assist families in being proactive during their pregnancies, which can only enhance the relationship.
Young and old men alike will be thankful to Thomas for helping them give their beautiful wife, daughter, sister or other female family members the support they need in such an important part of their lives and yours.
Read, apply and enjoy the rewards of your planting!

INTRODUCTION
emo·tion [e-moh-shuhn]
–noun [from Latin emovre to remove, displace, to move, move the feeling]
1. A mental state that arises spontaneously rather than through conscious effort and is often accompanied by physiological changes.
2. A state of mental agitation or disturbance. emo·tion·al [e-moh-shuh-nl]
–adjective
1. Determined or actuated by emotion rather than reason.
WARNING
Beware of the flurry of emotionally driven, sometimes hostile hormone attacks that invade and control, by impulse, the joy, sorrow, reverence, hate, grief and love of an expectant woman.
Because of these powerful and complex occurrences, a need has arisen--a need for sympathy, a need for adaptable communication, a need stamped in the hearts of all pregnant women that screams, understand me! Please!
____________
By educating the pregnant male, I will dismantle the communication barriers that have been constructed by what I call the hormone hobbits.
Those busy little emotional trolls pop up at will with only one agenda: to confuse. I will identify the need and address the role of the pregnant man as it pertains to the mind of the pregnant woman. In doing so, I will also attempt to eradicate the ignorance that has plagued men for far too long.
These tips will teach the dos and don’ts
in responding to the mom-to-be. I will endeavor to teach you the art of strategically dismantling the sometimes impenetrable emotional structure created by unpredictable and sometimes dysfunctional mood swings
caused by the psychologically constructed and dramatized feelings of a pregnant woman. In other words, guys, I’m gonna break it all down for you.
I believe the tips in this book will aid in accomplishing a successful pregnancy. You will find an answer for just about every emotional issue you may encounter on your nine-month journey.
When we, as men, understand the significance and importance of our role as a husband and father-to-be during the pregnancy, then the picture becomes clear: men are pregnant, too!
As you will see, 59 Tips for Pregnant Men will teach, enlighten, prepare, warn and educate the pregnant man on how to respond, comfort, support and understand his pregnant spouse. As we embark on a difficult safari into the inner regions of the pregnant woman’s mind, I believe that the advice given in each tip will allow you and the mom to achieve a blissful pregnancy experience.
Keep this book handy and accessible; there is no telling when you may need it.
HOW TO USE THE BOOK
Although there is a general order in the arrangement of the tips as it pertains to the stages in the pregnancy, you will discover that most tips are applicable at any time while expecting.
Every piece of advice was derived from experience and is profitable for correction and enhancement in relationships.
I, along with the help of pregnant women, have tried to cover every emotionally related issue or situation that may arise. Everything from dealing with the hormonal rollercoaster, to how to comfort her if she deals with constipation, and even the fear of a painful delivery, is covered here.
This book will help in identifying weaknesses and flaws in our character as it relates to the demand for sensitivity towards all of her needs. These tips were designed for men, but it is recommended that you invite the pregnant mom to read them also.
This is not for the purpose of condemning or beating you over the head or even exposing any of your inadequacies, but instead to enlighten you, in love, to help you improve your communication and understanding.
There are no set days to read certain tips, but it is suggested that you identify the present or related issue, look it up in the index and then read the tip . If followed, each tip is sure to increase communication and understanding in that particular area.
It’s ignorance that causes us to fail,
