Couvade syndrome, also called sympathetic pregnancy, is a proposed condition in which a partner experiences some of the same symptoms and behavior of an expectant mother. These most often include minor weight gain, altered hormone levels, morning nausea, and disturbed sleep patterns. In more extreme cases, symptoms can include labor pains, postpartum depression, and nosebleeds. The labor pain symptom is commonly known as sympathy pain. Couvade syndrome is not a recognized medical condition.
Things You'll Need. Mow your lawn to height of 2 1/2 inches. If you are mowing it shorter than this, it is likely to turn brown and take on a burnt appearance. Water the burnt spots and entire lawn with 1 inch of water weekly. If your lawn is littered with burnt spots, it may be caused by lack of water. In especially hot months it is necessary for the soil to be moist approximately 4 to 6 inches down. Replace permanently damaged burnt spots.

It sounds like a good idea, but Iâve never heard or seen anyone else do this. He used to be a fireman and knows how to do a controlled burn so I think he can handle the fire part. Iâm just worried the grass wonât come back. Does this sound like a good idea? Any thoughts? George777 â posted 23 March 2002 08:05.

I recommend burning it in sections by âdrawingâ a box around the burn area with a stream of water. Then, I light the area and it burns up to the perimeters that I wet.
