Actually he can. My dad gained weight every time one of his daughters were pregnant. He also had pains when we were in labor.LOL...Poor guy dealt with this 13 times...lol..there are 5 girls and 1 boy in my family. lol..I think it is a closeness thing. It would be interesting to know if there was a medical explanation. Who knows maybe it is like females living together..all have the menstruation the same time because hormones are all in sink,..LL.

It is called sympathy weight and yes some guys gain a few pounds (like my hubby He eats more than I do, I am only at 12 weeks and he has gained 6 pounds I have gained 3)
Oh yeah Hubby is a Marine who has mandatory PT and not a couch potato.

yes, its called sympathy weight. whats gonna happen is your girl is gonna have to eat alot and is gonna gain some pounds during the pregnancy. Heres where the dude comes in. She's gonna start feeling like a pig if she eats what she needs to eat by herself. so, she makes her man eat with her. and that is one of the many ways you'll end up being controlled by your woman.

Yes!...its called "Couvade Syndrome". Believe it or not...I'm 12 weeks pregnant and my boyfriend actually knew before I did, my boyfriend was feeling really nauseous one morning and even threw up once and the next day I felt nauseous and decided to take a pregnancy test and it was positive! Check this website out it has a lot more information on couvade syndrome.

It is kinda funny. Sometimes the guy has sympathy reactions. My hubby gained 20 pounds while I actually lost while pregnant. He also had weird cravings. LOL

My husband has not gain alot of weight but he has being eating weird. I think its all in the mind of that male, I think its call sympathy symptoms. But my girlfriend husband gain 26 pound during her pregnancy and his face got fat. I don't get it, I think its all a mind thing.

Yes. My husband gained like 30 pds while i was pregnant. We would kid that we had matching bellies. This is not b/c someone is lazy my husband works out and is fit. His job is coal mining which is hard labor and he still put on weight.

No.
Guy gains weight if he has slow metabolism and if he eats more than enough and does less activity.
Make sense right.

It is one of those old myths that says so because:
The woman will spend 9 months or so cooking and eating more food, thus the husband has access to more food.
