Hi Reddit, so my wife is about 8 months pregnant and lately has been struggling with her self confidence during the late stages of her pregnancy with her being bloated, belly getting bigger, new varicose veins, etc.
When she’s feeling down on herself, I tell her she’s still beautiful to me, which I of course think she is, and how I appreciate the sacrifice she is putting her body through for our family. However I’d like to do more as far as making her believe that she is indeed beautiful.
I’ve been helping out with various baby prep house projects, giving her foot/leg massages, making dinner/tea when she wants. But, is there anything extra I can do to make her feel she’s as beautiful as I truly think she is? I feel helpless and want to do more than just say “we’ll you’re beautiful to me!”. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!

As someone whose ex partner would say things as “I hope when you are pregnant you will still watch what you eat because so many women just eat and use pregnancy as excuse to get lazy” I want to say that your wife is very lucky that you are like this. I think it’s really amazing! Kudos to you OP!
I guess also since my ex partner would say that he would never have sex with me if I would be pregnant (yes with his baby) I would say you can make her beautiful by desiring her – I don’t know if you can still have sex but if not I would at least try to make it visible she still turns you on and you still can’t keep your hands off her. To me physical affection shows that I am desirable, more than words.
