"We" are pregnant? Ha. Please!



Thank you...
 

Thanx. You pretty much just echoed what I had already said.
 
And that is exactly what I said. Or you took it the wrong way?

It's often hard to distinguish the right from the wrong interpretation of things said on the internet. But then again, if that's what you said, it's all fine.
 


Makedha,

Hear, hear! I can't stand it when couple (usually the man speaking) say, "We're pregnant!" You, plural, are not pregnant. Only the woman is pregnant. You are both expecting a child, however. Pregnant is a physical state of being. I know that people think it's cute to say, "We're pregnant!" Or maybe it's warm-and-fuzzy and politically correct, but it doesn't make the man pregnant, too.
 
most of the time nasikia 'My wife/gf is pregnant. We are expecting'. Hiyo 'We are pregnant' siyo mbaya ikiwa mwanaume yupo comfy kusema hivyo..
 
[EMT;Does it drive anyone else absolutely crazy when couples (especially the expectant father) refer to being pregnant as "we're pregnant." Yaani ni sawa na mume anasema “tuna ujauzito”. It's like they are trying to take credit for all the work that being pregnant can be. So, whenever I hear a man say "we're pregnant," I want to rage. No matter how supportive and doting the expectant father may be to his round wife, and no matter how much it feels like his whole world is upside down... he really has absolutely no idea.

To me it sounds ok because is one way of expressing your togetherness, supportiveness, and the happiness of the couple. It is gauche to the other people because of our culture whereby a woman is claimed to be a responsible person for pregnancy. Otherwise, is a personal discernment
 
hivi kuna mwanaume yupo comfy kusema hivyo? just curious

Jamani imagine mimi na wewe ni mwili mmoja, so si utasema 'we are pregnant'...just thinking loud🙂) ha ha

In reality, sijawahi kumsikia mwanaume akisema hivyo!!


Hii haijatulia kabisa

Kweli ina mushkeri fulani hivi..basi 'we are expecting'...ha ha
 
Just call a spade a spade, I've never in my life heard a man claiming to be pregnant. So funny!! Ha ha ha. So

u got this from a certain movie goes by the name of death at the funeral... lakin pia the guy who said so alkua hayuko sawa kiakili.
 
My friend once ordered lemon and other odd spices to be added in his tea @restaurant only to excuse himself that his wife is pregnant and so they both develop that weird eating habit that normally happens to preg woman b'se of hormonal changes.
Surprisingly the man eat unripe mangoes, preg sand etc. So in the spirit of 'planet fatherhood' its acceptable to say we are pregnant.
 
Nitafurahi mume wangu akitumia hiyo phrase!
