			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Couvade syndrome</strong> is a medical/mental condition which &#8220;involves a father experiencing some of the behavior of his wife at near the time of childbirth, including her birth pains, postpartum seclusion, food restrictions, and sex taboos&#8221;</p>
<p><a title="couvades syndrome" href="http://www.everything-daddy.com/blog/couvades-syndrome-pregnant-fathers/">Everything-Daddy</a> says that these concition really do happens and that the symptons of being pregnant really do experiences by the fathers&#8230; they sometimes call it sympathy pains.</p>
<p>To name a few, these are morning sickness, sore back, swelling limbs, contractions and more.</p>
<p>As to why these phenomenon is happening, no one knows. There are sayings and theories that these are sympathetic in nature (hence the term “sympathetic pregnancy”) or could have been brought in by stress. What ever the reason may be, it is completely psychological.</p>
<p>One thing to note though, this is not new stuff. Medical writings dates back to 400 ago proves that this has been experienced by fathers. In some country <em>Couvades Syndrome</em> is widely accepted and most of the time, is already part of their social culture.</p>
