Make Me A Daddy.

We and I mean all women who went through pregnancy -- you have to admit that once in your pregnant life you have become a "drama queen" in your own right.  I excluded non-pregnant ladies, if you have to excuse me, because this has something to do with a condition of overflowing hormones and the mere fact that we are pregnant, not that we are complaining.

Everything hurts, legs hurt, back hurts, the "slow mo" walk, the weight gain and the sleepness nights. The moment he learned about my pregnancy, I know that he will be a good father, he would worry more than I do, he'd ask me if I got me my vitamins, if I ate on time and what I want to eat, just last night I asked him to cook puchero and he did, trembling. 

Being a father requires a lot, you have to be patient, you have to be more careful on the decisions that you make, you have to think about your child before you do something that might hurt them.  You have to work double time, sleepless nights, taking turns in changing nappies, feeding the baby, sending them to school -- blah! blah! blah! 

When I told him I was pregnant, he was the happiest, he was the one who called doctor friends and ask for recommendations in looking for a good OB-GYNE, he would ask me everytime --how it feels inside me, or if it hurts, if it's painful, if there is anything that he needs to do, he gets more excited as he watch my tummy get bigger, he would call the baby "peanut", he even bought me shoes since I can't wear my killer high heels anymore, there's always fruit on the table and he would always kiss the baby goodnight.

These are just small ways of how to be a father, but there's more, just wait. :)
