Gotta AW DH A Little (I'm Feeling Mushy)

So I love my DH so much. Hes pretty much the cutest thing ever and honestly I'm so impressed by his ability to calm me down even when hes like 7,000 miles away. As a FTM with impending due date, lurking pre-e, and the closest family about 2 hours away at most times I'm a nervous wreck. I'm a nervous person anyway but I really don't want to mess anything up with a baby. About once a day I have a breakdown to him (via FB message because that is how we communicate) and as soon as he gets online he kinda just talks me off a cliff, and then I'm fine. Hes so supportive even being far away.

Hes convinced that baby is coming on her own on Thursday as is my doctor. My poor husband just had to switch shifts though so his sleep pattern is all of (as is our schedule for when we talk to each other... still trying to work that out). So his head is all crazy. He keeps having dreams that I sent him messages telling him that labor was starting but go get some rest and then get online so he doesn't fall asleep while anything important is happening.

Well the poor guy, he wakes up, can't remember if the dream is real or not, and hes SO exhausted but he doesn't want to miss anything (or if anything is started he wants to know) so he pulls himself up and out of his tent and walks the 10-15 minute walk across the base to the tent where the internet signal is strong enough to log onto facebook to check the messages! Of course nothing is happening yet so then he has a 10-15 minute walk back before he can try to settle his head back down and go back to sleep!

Hes so sweet to always check. It's adorable how excited he is but I feel SO BAD. I wish I could have a way to signal him better, or make it so he could get an internet signal in his tent so he didn't have to pull him out of bed. He really just needs more sleep. 12-14 hours a day of work 6 days a week for the past 3+ months (and where he is is super hot) and then going to the gym after work... that is a lot for anyone.

Can't wait to have him home and spoil him!!

    Few more months. We're hanging in there.

    And hes amazing. We've been married almost 2 years and I'm waiting for the fairy tale factor to wear off. Hasn't yet. I guess that is a good sign. :)

    Wow what a sweetheart! :) I couldn't imagine doing this without my DH, I really couldn't. Just consider yourself blessed to have such a wonderful guy. And sometimes believe it or not the "fairytale" doesn't end. I've been married over 6 years and each year is better than the last.
