What is it called when you are pregnant and have morning sickness and your husband starts getting sick too?
Answer:
This is known as Couvade Syndrome. Even though my hubby didn't get my morning sickness, he got the fatigue and weight gain.
i believe it's psychosomatic. He'll be fine in time.

There are a lot of terms that come to mind...but the medical one is Couvade Syndrome or sympathetic pregnancy.
Its called vomit makes him vomit
sympathy pain
An absolute blessing!! So many husbands (like mine) tend to say that "it's just all in your head". My dad got sick when my mom got pregnant, too... that's how she found out that she was pregnant!! He'd get seriously sick for no apparent reason.. she'd go to the doctor, and sure enough... there was one of us on the way!
I don't know the term, but I think it's awesome when husbands (or partners) experience symptoms of pregnancy. It means they are really in tune and attached to the mom.
