Sometimes, a man just wants to get you pregnant. And the weird thing about it is that you may never really know. Men don’t really talk about these things. They just keep trying. Here are ten signs that he just might secretly want you pregnant for him.
1. He asks you to move in with him
When a man asks you to move in with him, it just means his level of commitment to you has remarkably increased.
I asked five women what moving in did to their relationships, and all five of them told the story that moving in came with an improved sense of commitment from the man.
Julia says: “Five weeks after he asked me to move in with him, he asked me to be his wife.”
Senya says: “When he asked me to move in with him, I knew he had made up his mind to really get serious with me. It was not surprising when he asked me to get pregnant about a month later.”
If he has just asked you to move in with him, chances are he wants you to get pregnant. There is such a big chance that he does.
2. He introduces you to his family
Family means commitment. And as you know, with men, the highest level of commitment is fatherhood. When a man decides to father a child, it means he has decided to commit himself to that child’s mother and the love they share.
He knows that even though things get sour, she is always going to be a part of his life.
That sort of commitment does not just show up out of nowhere. There are usually signs. There would be signs of progress from one stage of commitment to another.

3. He wants to see your childhood pictures
I know someone who used to do this a lot. Men are quite weird, you see. They can do a lot of stuff to make sure they aren’t making mistakes. A man who wants to have a child would often obsess about what his child may likely look like.
This will drive him to check the childhood pictures of his woman.
If a man is checking your childhood pictures, especially ones where you are a toddler, you may want to tease him a little just to make his true feelings come out.
You can say, “You spend a lot of time looking at my picture as though we are about to make a mini-me.”
A man who wants a child will often laugh about this and tell you how that is not a bad idea at all.
4. He gets a new pet
I know a family who really wanted to have a child but were having difficulties conceiving. The first thing the man suggested was: Can we get a pet?
For some reason, a pet often fills a void in a man’s heart.
When a man has become so committed, he just feels a sense of responsibility for you and a child, and he will often fulfill this sense of responsibility by being a father to a pet.
He will show all the care and affection stored up in his heart to the pet. So, if your husband is suddenly so big on having a pet, he may just want a child.

5. There’s some baby fever
Baby fever shows up in different degrees for everyone. Some men may just talk about babies more. Others may just stare at baby pictures too much during the course of the day or get excited when a baby shows up on the TV screen.
However, they will be signs of sudden love and affection towards babies. In some men, the fever is so bad that they may even begin to treat their woman like a baby. I have seen this before, and it was such a cute thing to watch.
Test your man for baby fever. Show him a picture of a very cute child and let him tell you what he thinks. Men who test positive for baby fever will often blush and tell you how much they’ll want to have babies, too.
6. He studies your cycle
Of course, some men have a very peculiar interest in the cycle of their women. If your man suddenly wants to know about your cycle and all of that, then he may just be trying to get you pregnant.
This is especially true if he asks to have sex with you on days when he knows you are most fertile. It is even more obvious if he wants you to stay away from contraceptives.
7. He wants to have unprotected sex
Ah, and yes. It is often obvious that he wants to have unprotected sex because he wants a child.
Men who do not want children try as hard as they can to stay away from sex without a condom. It is not rocket science.

8. A late period gladdens him
Say you walk up to him and talk about your late period. But for some reason, he doesn’t seem disturbed at all. He even feels a little happier than he should. That should tell you that he is secretly trying to get you pregnant. Or he just wants a child.
9. An early one makes him scoff
An early period brings joy to any man who doesn’t want to have a child just yet. Every man has a story of a pregnancy scare that almost made him lose his mind. Men who are secretly trying to get you pregnant do not have pregnancy scares. They just want to have a child, and that’s it.
If an early period makes him scoff, then he wants to get you preggos.
10. He tells someone
Men usually tell someone these things. A friend, a colleague, anyone.
It is usually a little obvious when a man is trying to get you pregnant.
