You might as well start comparing a lot of mothers who lose their lives & babies during pregnancy to fathers who work their butt off.
Now please, don't tell me that's the same as well.
Edit: Even BEFORE pregnancy, mothers also work IN and OUT of their homes, like cleaning, cooking, doing the laundry, etc. which fathers don't even help around with just cause they think it's a women's job. At least a mother doesn't feel ashamed of doing both jobs whereas a father makes a big deal about doing the household chores.
& no. A mother doesn't rest when she's pregnant. Do you really think it's easy holding a baby in you for 9 months ? It burns like hell. The baby kicks around & whatnot.
