Thanks...what branch of service is your husband in??....my husband is in the Navy and he will be going on deployment soon...but at least he'll be back in time for the birth of our baby..(I hope)!
Your welcome....he's on the USS Pickney it's a destroyer. I think you'll like the East Coast....def diff from Cali haha but I still think you'll like it! 20 years...he's going for the long hall...which is great...my husband is not sure if he's going to stay or get out...if he does stay I would like to go back to the east coast..Jacksonville, FL to be exact..only 6 hr drive from Miami...but if he gets out we'll be staying here, I won't know until it's time for him to make that choice.
Yeah, when it comes down to it we really can't do anything about it...yes, Lord knows I agree with you on that...it's so much easier to deal with civilan doctors...but I won't be having anymore kids hahaha 3 is more than enough for me so good luck with that LOL!!! Well, in a few more months you meet your bundle of joy and it will be worth everything you have gone through in the past 40 wks :0)!!! K.I.T. and take care!
Hi Annie! I am also a military spouse. I am also former Navy and married a Marine Pilot. This is my first pregnancy. Is your husband's ship part of USS Bonhomme-Richard group that is deploying sometime in Sept-Oct? If so my husband is attached to the MEU that is deploying at that time too. I know how you feel about the east coast my husband and I would like to get stationed back east where most of our families are from but needs of Navy/Marine Corps.
Anyhow I hope everything proceeds smoothly for you and your new little one.

Hi Lydia, My husband actually left already. He's part of the Nimitz battle group. Yeah, i miss the east coast a lot. By the way Congrats on your fist! I hope all is going well for you. It was nice meeting you! Take care.
oh i like it on the east coast we've gone back to pa a couple times and i just love the people only thing i dont agree with is the weather! lol i hate it im so used to san diego weather it kills me to be over there went we went it was rainy and humid and bleeh not my scene haha other then that i love it.. and yeah we talked about the 20 years especially since we're going to be starting a family already we figure its the smart way to go especially since he doesn't plan on going back to school.. how many more eyars does your hubby have before you guys decide what you need to do??
yeah ive never dealt with civilian doctors my dad was in the navy as well so ive always been with military doctors! im sure im in for a suprise.. hahah but we shall see.. and yeah i know.. less then 10 weeks left.. i cannot wait!!
Yeah Sheena, there is a big diff in the weather so thats the main thing you'll have to adjust to! My husband has until Oct 2011 to make a choice but his mom is not feeling well...she's up in age and she's getting to the point where she won't be able to work anymore because of health issues, so we've talk about her living with us and if she does end up living with us it will be around the time our baby is due so he said that he would stay in depending on his moms situation. Anyway, I hope all is well with you and baby!! Make sure you K.I.T....and take care!
SWEET!!!! I know u were happy to see your baby boy!!!!! Awww I hope I have a boy! But who knows with our luck it will be another girl hahaha...Wow your due soon! I love rolley polley babies hahaha! I am guessing he's gonna be a 7 pounder. That's a good size anything bigger than that would make me nervous hahahaha! Did you have your baby shower already?? Did you get everything you need?? Shopping the best part of having a little one. Well, I know that you'll be a great mom make sure you let me know when you have him!
