Imagine your phone ringing.
It may be your mobile phone or your work number.

“We’re going to have a baby!”
This is great news! Whether it’s your first child or several later, your wife needs to hear your love and support.

If you are blessed with the good news that your wife is expecting, you have an excellent opportunity to deepen your marriage.
Just starting writing love letters to your wife and tell her how much you love her and will support her during the pregnancy.
Don’t know what to write?
There are two options.
A long love letter which may be a page or two.
Or a treasuring note, which is easier to write because it consists of a few sentences, and focuses on a moment during the pregnancy journey.
Consider the following example of a love letter to a pregnant wife.
As an emotionally-intelligent husband, you can write love letters and treasuring notes to your wife to express your care and concern for her, express your love for her and her condition, and offer your support.
Five Tips to Keep in Mind
Here are five tips to keep in mind. Let’s review those right now.
1. Listen to your wife. Let her tell you her fears, happiness, joy, and worries. Be considerate of your wife’s feelings. When you know these feelings, you can write a letter that relates to what she is feeling.
2. Realize that pregnancy is a nine-month journey to the new life of a baby. Don’t write one letter and be done with it. Your wife will need continuing support during the entire time. So plan on writing a number of letters and spread them out during those nine months.
3. Your wife’s moods will change often. Expect that and be ready to write an encouraging note when she feels overwhelmed, stressed out, or worried.
4. Give your wife extra love and attention. An encouraging letter is only a part of the process. Loving deeds are love letters in action.
5. Write your love letter that words that value your wife as your deeply cherished spouse, no matter what your pregnancy will bring. Remember that both of you are pregnant together.
