I am 35 weeks pregnant with twins. I could basically go at anytime but hoping to make it to 38 weeks. I currently have a horrible case of bronchitis. I have two toddlers in addition to this circus that need supervision. Help outside the home is questionable at best. My husband put up a notice that he needed to take time off from work to care for me and the kids. He is putting major pressure on me to go back to work one more time before his vacation starts January 1st. The problem is that he's not just down the road. He is a ship pilot which requires him to be on the bay and away from home for 24-48 hours. I feel absolutely horrible and really need him here however the pressure from him is causing me to become very upset and angry. Do I let him go and we take our chances or should I insist he stay off work till vacation or when I get better. Thanks.
Re: I need some advice.
my DH wouldn't even think twice about it- he'd be home helping me and making sure I was OK, the kids were OK and I wasn't going into labor b/c of the stress of sickness and caring for 2 kids.
