Married Mama's what's the best thing your husband has done for you?

Positive stories please! So many women  on here don't have husband's and it makes me sad. Need some women to relate to!

I already posted on this but I have been having mood swings like crazy and my husband has been a champ. He spoils me rotten. He is the most amazing man I have ever met in my life. He is truly awesome to deal with me lol. I thank God everyday for such an amazing husband.

I don't think it should matter if their married or not. My boyfriend does has helped me through all the aches and pains and the cravings. He's had a warm bubble bath waiting for me when I get off work and afterwards he'll rub my feet and my back. He's stocked up on peppermints for when I feel sick, bought me a giant jar of pickles. Makes sure there is apple juice and water in the house constantly. Buys me flowers for no reason, changes the cat box and wakes me up with breakfast in bed. He brushes my hair, rubs lotion or baby oil on my belly and to help me sleep he plays with my hair or rubs my back. When I start stressing out over work or how hard its going to be he kisses me and says "don't worry, I told you I'd take care of you and Simon." Not once have I asked him to do any of this, he does this all on his own. My boyfriend is the best boyfriend in the world and I am so happy that I'm having his child.

I love thread! Thank you for posting it! I know there's ladies out there that don't have supportive husbands/boyfriends and my heart and moral support goes out to them. But it's so nice to see all of this positivity when there's so much negative talk about the men in this chatroom.

My husband is wonderful. I had to quit my job early in my pregnancy due to complications and my husband has been so supportive threw all of the scary moments.  From picking up extra overtime shifts to helping around the house. He is also so attentive to me emotionally. Somehow he just always seems to know when I need reassurance about the baby or when I'm not feeling very attractive. He always says and does the right things to make me feel better. He's an amazing man. I am truly blessed!

MrsBehr, if no group is formed for married women, this is definitely a good go to thread. I love it! :)

I thought of two more things. My husband has taken over cleaning the litter boxes. He also would always make me feel better on my unproductive days (from vomiting or fatigue).He would say to me, "did you grow a baby today?" I would respond yes, and he would say "you were productive."

My wonderful hubby has always been a consistent dream come true and has always spoiled and pampered me in every way but since I have hyperemesis and decided to just become a stay at home mom to my 14 month old,  hubby: takes great care of our 14 mth old and myself by making us breakfast/lunch /dinner before he heads to work for his 12 hr shift, he rearranges his schedule to take us to our dr appts even though I could drive myself, he cleans the house, he does the laundry,  he makes sure we have things that we need and just want, he does all of the errands/any appt scheduling,  gives me a daily all over rub, bathes our daughter,always tells me how beautiful I am and how much he loves me...tells our daughter the same, he religiously plays with and read to our daughter and unborn baby, is beyond patient with me and my hormones and even with a hectic work schedule and homelife he gets up in the wee hours of the morning functioning on "fumes" to still take care of our daughter or make me some oven toast. The hyperemesis keeps me vomiting all day but I am still willing to do things for my family but since I am with our daughter his entire work shift he just wants me to focus on myself and our daughter and not have much to do. My family and friends always joke about wishing my hubby could be cloned and boy oh boy, while we can occasionally bump heads over little things (way to go me) I can honestly say that I thank God for him, feel truly blessed and never want to know a life without him...and not just because I married someone who treats me well but because he Genuinely without a shadow or a doubt loves me and his main focus in life is to see our family happy. Sorry for being long winded but I could've gone on and on...lol...the sad part is that I just realized in thinking about how much he does...I sometimes take his genie in a bottle spirit for granted and just expect him to do these kinds of things because he has always been my personal genie even before the babies.  Great post though.....thanks!!! I'm glad i ran across it and now im off to make hubby feel special.

Best wishes ladies and congrats on your pregnancies! !
