What about dad?

It does seem the celebrations and events surrounding pregnancy are focused on the mother. Only recently did the “Dadchelor party” become a thing. And it’s still nowhere near as popular as the baby shower for the mother. Then there’s “Couvade” – a ritual through which a father takes to his bed while his wife is in labor as if he was going through the physical symptoms of his pregnant wife. Surveys have found that women perceive their husbands doing this far more than men report actually doing it. Translation: women say, “He’s getting his moment” and men are saying, “No I’m not.”
