Advice for New Dad

I downloaded this app on my phone because I wanted to be as informed as I can to support/help my wife (who is currently 15 weeks pregnant with our 1st baby). I've been with her at doctor appointments, been supportive when she's had (horrible) mood swings & random (sometimes late night) weird food cravings, rubbed her back, stomach & feet many times, & comforted her during cramps, nausea, & other aches & pains. I try to give her words of encouragement & try to pick up the majority of the housework so she can rest. Is there anything else I can do to help her? I want to do all I can to show her that, although I'm not pregnant, I'm with her 100% through everything. Any tips for me?

You are doing a great job...only thing make sure you are still and continue to tell her she is still beautiful...some of us tend to feel ugly and fat at times

So far you're doing great!! Just try not to get exhausted or frustrated just yet. Idk how my fiance put up with me lol but the big day is when she is going to need you the most! My fiance was amazing when I gave birth to my son a week ago. I couldnt have done it without him
