Away from DH

Tonight is the first night that I have been away from my husband in what feels like years. We are having our house Interior painted and I decided to stay at my mom's house to play it safe. He did stop by after work to come see me for about 30 mins, than ran home to deal with an issue. Now that I feel LO kicking away I miss DH so much. Every night we lay and bed and talk to our baby and count her kicks together. Tonight it's just me and I started to cry. I know it's just for one week but it makes me so sad. I really feel for the women who's husbands are over seas or work out of town. I don't know how they do it, they are do strong. I'm done now, sorry for such a long post.

    My husband is going through a police academy out of town and is gone during the week - he leaves Sunday night and comes home Friday nights. Even when he's home on the weekends he's exhausted and has studying to do :( He graduates the week after our LO is due. I was already an emotional person, but I now cry every week when he leaves, and randomly throughout the week. I just keep reminding myself it could be worse - luckily this is our first, so I'm not having to play pregnant and single mom while he's gone, or he could be over seas in the military.

    Military wives are my heros!

    Marine wife here, I can say it sucks for us right now bc he's going through training. He's gone for a week at a time every 2 weeks. I get zero phone calls, and don't get to see him. When October hits I have to move back home(which is where I'm having the baby) and it'll be a month before I see him. It's hard but I know he's safe, and it's not a deployment(which I'm grateful). I'd rather him miss most of my pregnancy than the baby's birth or his first few months of life. It sucks that I have to chose, but Owell! I love him and support him in what he chooses to do!
