Pregnant Wife

[Chefpeter]

I am going to make a chore list for my wife, since she is pregnant, what kind of things should she do?

[Cebakes]

Relax

Exercise

Mani Pedis

Eat Healthy

Lunch with family or friends

Yoga

Make a list of chores for you to do  😀

Has she asked for a chore list? Expressed an interest in doing chores while pregnant? This again feels like your other two posts of forcing what you want on her versus creating a chore list based on an expressed desire from her. 

I'm very curious what you think DDlg is based on and what it means to you AND what it means to her.

I have removed my initial comment as it is not productive to initial question asked in the post above. I don’t want any of my words to dissuade someone truly seeking this lifestyle with their partner based on my misinterpretation of it, so I will defer to those more experienced than myself. @shadowrider

She wants a chore list yes

Communication should be the cornerstone of any relationship.

Talk to her and ask her what types of things/chores she feels she should or can do as her pregnancy progresses.

Does she have an outside the home day job or is she a full time homemaker ? Which is a job in itself.

If she has a full time job I personally would expect the home workload to be divided among the 2 of you.

These are questions that you need to look at before making a list to add to her daily routine.

I agree with @Cebakes theory and would make a list that focused on her and the baby's well being.

Chore 1 take your prenatal vitamins

Chore 2 take several 15 - 30 minute breaks a day to relax and just breath

Chore 3 eat a healthy snack

Things like this are what I would focus on if my partner were in the process of building a tiny human.

Let's keep our responses directed to the question at hand please.

Yeah it's about what she can handle and you need to be flexible as things can change quickly but ask her what chores she can handle and probably every two weeks review it to make sure it's not to much

Sit down and talk together about what you feel are good chores. As a mother I wish I found this lifestyle sooner and had a daddy to keep me at task on what was needed for my baby and me. Definitely have things like take prenatal vitamins. I was always forgetful on mine. Also of things like take time to prop her feet up, fun activities for herself, call a friend or family member. Simple things mixed with chores u both feel is ok for her to do.
