"Couvade Syndrome or Sympathetic Pregnancy"

Ok, basically I don't have any pregnancy symptoms just very mild sore boobs, headcahes and some heartburn in the mornings, then was just thinking that DH is always sleepy, tired and having some cravings. Could that be he is getting Sympathetic pregnancy syndrome that is when your dear love one have the pregnancy symptoms and not you? I'm just curious, If that ever happen to you or anyone related to you?

My hubby always jokes about it. For the first few weeks he had cravings, was tired all the time, etc.
I have heard that it can happen tho!

My mom told me my father had morning sickness. He was the one puking and getting woozy through her pregnancies.
