Dads Are Sharing Dumb Things They Did When Their Wife Was Pregnant

As much as they mean well, dads have a rep for making their wives roll their eyes a lot.

Whether they're telling lame dad jokes or committing any of these crimes, they can do some foolish things.

This includes while their wife is pregnant! So come laugh at these dads who are sharing the dumb things when their wife was pregnant!

The sick stomach

When this dad gets nervous, he throws up. So when his wife had to be induced, he was alternating between stroking his wife's hair during labor and puking in a bucket. Then, when the baby came out, he ended up throwing up all over his daughter!

"Apparently eating fried chicken while your wife is giving birth is frowned upon...I hadn't eaten in like 24 hours, and I am not squeamish. Doctor was not impressed, so I threw it out promptly." - u/Mr_Drewski

The bad joke

"I think I was about 8 months pregnant and after many attempts at rolling over in bed I finally managed it. My husband laughs to himself and announces 'thar she rolls.'" - u/dontwantanaccount

The cocoa butter

When this wife asked her husband to get some cocoa butter for her stretch marks, he called her from the store and said, “I’ve looked in the candy section AND the dairy section. I cannot find the cocoa butter!”

"My dad had just got a new car when my mum was due to have me and he turned on the heated seats while she was sitting in the passenger seat. She thought her water had broke." - u/kaianide23

The wrong priorities

"When my parents arrived at the hospital to give birth to me, the first thing my dad asked the nurse was 'where's the cafeteria?' My mom was 9 cm dilated." Get your head in the game, buddy!

This dad got an early start on dad jokes when his wife was pregnant.

His first order of business was to buy only Prego pasta sauce. Of course, he thought this was sooo hilarious.

"I asked my wife if she had any money in her purse for coffee during a contracting in about hour 20 of labor. She let me live. 1st kid. I just shut the hell up on the next two kids. Only spoke when spoken to." - u/Luder714

The weight loss

"I was working out like crazy and dropped to 159lbs. My 8 month pregnant wife had just weighed in at 160lbs. I said 'hey, you weigh more than me!' Go directly to doghouse. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200..." - u/SnoutInTheDark

The fried green beans

This husband took his wife's pregnancy cravings very seriously.

Since she loved fried green beans, he fried two bags of them for dinner one night. Later on, she threw it all up on him in the shower!

The pizza delivery

"When my mother was giving birth to me my father ordered a pizza. And after I was born my mom was laying in the bed exhausted and she looks at my dad who with a full mouth asks her if she’d like a slice. She didn’t." - u/thedailywumbo16

The wheelchair driver

"When going over bumps, it's better to back over them than just give the chair a hard push. Sometimes the 'passenger' just about falls out. Just about dumped my expectant wife into an elevator." - u/Oregonguy1954

The detour

When a woman's water breaks, you'd think that her husband would rush to the hospital. But not this dad!

He took his sweet time by making a detour to Starbucks instead! To be fair, it was a scheduled c-section.

The NFL game

"Wife giving birth to our 1st kid on a Sunday afternoon in October. Yes, NFL season. While the baby is being delivered, the doctor, nurse, and I all turn around, (at the same time!), to see an exciting play by the Vikings vs the Bears. She still brings it up 18 years later..." - u/sparky88xx

The babysitter

"My mom was giving birth to me, my dad didn’t have a babysitter to watch my brother so he handed him to a random stranger to watch him at the hospital." - u/ISaidBitchhhh

The stolen Snickers bar

This husband made the very grave mistake of eating one of his wife's Snickers.

Cue to hormone-fueled yelling that the neighbors could hear! PSA to husbands: don't eat your wife's favorite pregnancy snack!

The anatomy report

"I introduced the nursing staff to the terms 'crotch fruit' and 'sex trophy.' I would think, working in a delivery ward they would have heard those terms before but noooooooooooooooo. Apparently I had uttered the most offensive thing they had ever heard while my wife was giving birth." - u/rottinguy

The bumpy ride

"When my wife was in labor with my first kid I took the absolute worst possible route to get to the birthing center. Construction, dips and potholes in the road. Every bump made her want to tear my throat out. It was horrible for her. We laugh about it now." - u/strange-brew

The pub crawl

This dad thought he had enough time before his son was born. So he stopped at a pub for a beer and a bite to eat. Cue to his wife calling him and telling him that the baby was coming that second!
