But a lot of pregnant women, myself included, also don't have or didn't have spouses as hilarious or as adorable as this Redditor, who when his pregnant wife didn't want a maternity photo session decided on an interesting solution.
He stole her maternity photographer for his own photo shoot
Father takes maternity photos
Meet Redditor DruishPrincess69, who uploaded the images yesterday with the caption My wife didn't want to take maternity pictures, so I hired a photographer and took her place. This guy is pretty much the best pregnant lady partner ever.
He has obviously done his Pinterest homework

I love how spot-on ridiculous these photos are, from the totally cheesy heart hands over belly pose we have seen a million times with traditional maternity photos to the coyly peeking around a doorway pose that women all over have duplicated.

But my favorites are the ice cream snaps
Maternity father ice cream
We all know pregnant women love ice cream — well, at least they do according to pregnancy tropes — and this father-to-be nails it with his uncontrollable enjoyment of his treat. This dude just can't get enough. He can't even get the ice cream into his mouth-hole because it's just that good and his pregnancy cravings are so out of control he just can't manage it.

Being pregnant can be a drag and it's important to keep a sense of humor
I wish we could hear from Mrs.DruishPrincess69 about this, because I can only imagine she is pretty amused by her husband's antics. I think one thing we can all agree on — one of the best traits you can have in a partner is someone with a sense of humor. This guy has it in spades. I'm pretty sure he is going to be a fun dad when his kid is born.

Now the only question left unanswered is who the father of his baby is? Ben & Jerry or Mr. Heineken?
