Briton William Bennett could easily replace a pregnancy test for his daughters. Every time they got pregnant, William “got pregnant” with them. The man’s belly swelled strongly and kept exactly until his daughters began to give birth.
Unfortunately for William, he had four daughters who turned out to be quite fertile. During his life, the man experienced as many as 30 pregnancies. The latter happened to him at the age of 79.
Once Bennett’s three daughters became pregnant at the same time, and the unfortunate father swelled at the waist by 76 centimeters. I had to wear maternity pants and oversized shirts.
Kuvad Syndrome (as medical textbooks call an imaginary male pregnancy) usually occurs in future fathers who are very empathic with their pregnant wives.
However, Mr. Bennett endured all four pregnancies of his wife quite calmly: he was not drawn to salty, and his stomach did not increase in volume. The first experience fell on her daughter’s pregnancy. And this was a serious shock for the man. The unusual symptoms were also confirmed by William’s physician. At the same time, no one has yet figured out what actually happened in the belly of a father with many children, causing such a tumor.
Most often, Kuvad syndrome begins in a man in the third month of his wife’s pregnancy and passes by the beginning of childbirth. Future dads develop nausea, vomiting, morning weakness, indigestion, a strong reaction to odors, pain in the lower abdomen and lower back. Kuvad syndrome is called a psychosomatic disorder, to which one in 10 men of childbearing age is susceptible to one degree or another.
