ok so right now I am 7 months and 3 weeks!! YAY! nice and big and of course my DH is missing out on all of it because of DEPLOYMENT!!:arg
I just found out when he gets back!!!! God I am so happy. of course my due date is april 28th.....I actually have a c-section scheduled on that morning also.
So my worries are 1- he wont be home in time if I go into early labor
2- he gets home, but I go into labor while we are on base (which is 5 hours away from my ob doc!)
3- it works out ok laborwise but I can't be intimate with him (7 months bites!)
4- but I guess my worst fear is not being able to see him get off the bus or wherever because I'm in the hospital or unable to travel.

I dunno I am just worried sick about this whole thing.This is our first and I have tried to stay possitive, but sometimes you need to talk to others in your shoes or who have "been through it all" so to speak.

I haven't been through that, so I can't offer anything but lots of :hugs I hope it all works out just as you want it to!

You need to take the date out. Look up the opsec rules. You should never tell anyone when your spouse is coming home, you could get yourself and him into trouble for it. :)

i'm sorry sweetie about the whole thing :hugs but she is right ospec.

I just PM'ed you.

Oh yah it wasn't the actual date. Just an estimate for mid april. Thanks for the correction though.

Make sure you have a back up person to grab him and take him right to the hospital just in case that is where you are when he arrives. If you don't want to deliver on post, then look up hospitals near post. No matter where you go, they have to see you and tricare has to pay for it if it's an unexpected early labor. Good luck! I hope it all works out for ya.

i'm sorry =[ I hope he is able to be there with you for the birth of ya'lls baby.
