could it be the pregnancy hormones?

some people believe that when a woman is pregnant, her husband gets affected by the changes in her hormones/pheremones. that is one reason why some men develop strange food cravings & gain "sympathy weight". suhee is now seven months pregnant, & i've been going through some weird changes.

change #1: i stopped lifting weights. i used to work out regularly for over 10 years (96-06). in those 10 years i rarely ever took a break for over one week. even when i didn't have time, i would make time because i enjoyed it so much. my roommate & i used to go to the gym at 5:30am every weekday. last december i completely stopped working out. it's been three months & i don't miss it at all. at this point i have no desire to get back in the gym.

change #2: i stopped training in brazilian jiu-jitsu (bjj). i trained in bjj for about 1.5 years (05-06). i used to love the training. in fact when i wasn't training, i found myself day-dreaming about it. last december i stopped training. it's been three months & i don't miss it at all. & i have no desire to get back into it.

what's wrong w/me? am i turning into a woman? honestly i don't think it is the pregnancy hormones. the anticipation of becoming a father has changed my mentality on so many things. i know that when the baby comes out my life will change even more. pray for me.
