Remember that she is always right. Stress can have an effect on a woman's health, particularly when she is pregnant. She's already got her hormones running amuck; she doesn't need to deal with extra stress, too. Before disagreeing and arguing, ask yourself if it's really worth it. If not, it's best to just say "Okay, dear" and move on. Pick your battles. Doesn't she usually win in the end anyway? If you really want to pamper her, though, try simply saying "I love you" at these moments.
As you've probably heard by now, she is going to have cravings. Part of good prenatal care from the partner is letting her give in to these cravings guilt-free and without a hassle. That may mean a midnight trip to the supermarket for cherries on the day that they go into season. Additionally, a great way to go above and beyond is to try to anticipate her needs. Pick up some chocolate or a cheesecake for her on your way home from work. Buy her some sweet tarts at the gas station. Even if you don't guess what she's craving, she will appreciate these little gifts.
Pregnancy is an emotional time for women. They are experiencing physical and emotional sensations that they never knew existed. You may find her crying while watching a Baby Story or sobbing as Richard Gere and Julia Roberts ride off into the sunset on Runaway Bride. This is a really good time to show your sensitive side. Rent a chick flick! After a long day of waddling about, especially after kids, she'll really love sharing a beautiful story with you. Make sure you pick up a box of soft Kleenex tissues.
