My fiance is 13 weeks pregnant so my question is do men have sickness because my stomach feels sick?

Yes: Men can experience symptoms similarly to their pregnant partner. This is true of other medical conditions (not that pregnancy is a condition) also. Studies show that men also gain weight with their wives and they also consume more alcohol than when their spouse is not pregnant. It is good you are paying attention to your body and now you can commiserate together! :-) the nausea does improve.

Sympathy pains : Some people joke about the husband’s of pregnant women experiencing “sympathy pains.” Although an amusing internet meme it not based in science. New onset of abdominal pain should be evaluated by your doctor.
