Hi ladies! :] My fiance and I just got engaged at the end of September when he was home on R&R, and I just found out we are expecting! He kept asking me if I thought we were pregnant, and said it was too early to take a test. Well I finally took one last Wednesday and it was positive! I have my first appointment in a couple hours to confirm the pregnancy at the doctors. The problem is, my fiance is on a two week mission and doesn't know yet :[ He is in the Army, and stationed overseas. I am due June 25th 2011. I sent a package out today with a onesie that I painted the Co. badge on, a bib, and the book what to expect when you are expecting. We will see if he gets the package first, or if he calls first to find out he is going to be a Daddy. He is going to be so excited!!!! I called his sister to tell her she was going to be an Aunt.. and come to find out, I am going to be an Aunt too!! She is due 2 days before me!!! EEK!!! :] Anyway, have any of you wives been through a whole pregnancy by yourself while your DH was gone on deployment?

Re: Expecting... <3
Congratulations...since you're not actually married yet you may not know about OPSEC. You should read the rules for OPSEC located at the top of the Military Families board and take out the dates and location of his deployment from your OP
