Stressing bad..needed to vent sorry

Okay so I normally don't post these posts but I'm seriously losing my marbles here..
1.work is super slow so saving money is getting really tough
2.just found out husband will most likely be leaving soon on and off until January and I have no idea if he will be able to come back for the birth..
3. If he goes I'll be alone..states away from any family/help
4.One of our cars is having some serious issues and if it goes out..it'll be a very crappy situation
Okay...think I'm done.. Sorry ladies and thanks for letting me moan and groan at all..

Re: Stressing bad..needed to vent sorry

  • Sometimes you just need to vent to people!! I could tell you all types of crappy car stories.. My very first car was a Chevy cavalier and all the panels on the car were a different color.. Because they had rusted so bad that we went to the closest Pick A Part and got those parts off of another cavalier and it broke down 10 times I the first 6 months that I owned it.. And the back seat was half black and have brown.. I called it rainbow dash.. Then I have a Chevy lumina for a few years and was in an accident in it but I liked it so much that got another one.. Only a year newer (it was a 95) and I drove it for 2 months and it died.. If it's a simple fix that you can have fixed now I would say fix it asap so it won't give you trouble later!! You don't want to have a baby in the car and then something happen.. I hope venting made you feel a little better!!!

  • My husband has to travel for 6 weeks right around my due date.  I'm hoping things will work out and he'll be home.  I have two other kids, so my mom (who is also a state away) will be coming to stay with me.

  • This sounds like a lot to go through.  I'm sorry you're having to deal with it.

    If there's something strange underneath the hood.  Who you gonna call?  Your Doctor.  If there's something weird and it don't look good.  Who you gonna call?  Your Doctor.  Immediately.  If it's new, painful, and possibly pregnancy related get your ass off the internet and call your doctor.  It's for your health and your child's.

    @hlaverett88 that does not sound good lady. I'm sorry that's a lot of stress. Could you plan to have a friend or mom/mil be there for your birth just in case? My mom is my back up plan in case my DH doesn't make it home in time, she is perfectly happy to be the back up support person. Or you could hire a doula to be there for you so you aren't feeling alone in case he is gone.
  • Don't feel sorry for venting. We all have to vent sometimes. Hope everything works out for you.
    Do you have any family coming to help you when the baby is born?
    Hope your SO can be present when your baby is born.
  • I'm so sorry you're going through all of this! My husband is a mechanic and he sometimes gets parts for older cars from a pick a part place for cheap. Maybe your husband can grab the part he needs and replace it before he leaves? If you have any friends, maybe they can be your support person! All of my family is at least 8 hours away. My best friend is going to the hospital with us regardless of whether DH can make it or not. I really hope you can get some things in place so you won't stress as much!
  • I have no advise only creepy hugs. I'm sorry you are dealing with so much piling up.

    Thanks for all the support ladies! I have spoke with my sister, mom, and dad about my SO leaving and they're working out coming out here staggered so that I can have help. So stress is lessening a bit.
  • That's awesome! It's great that you have such a supportive family!

    That's good that they are willing to come help you and relieve some stress!! It will all be ok soon!!! Try to relax and kick your feet up and maybe watch a good movie with your SO and just have a relaxing time just to have a moment to forget about all the stressful things..
  • That sucks! My husband is going to Mexico a few weeks after our LO is born on a vacation to go fishing. Leaving me home with 4 kids under 5.... I could go but really who wants to honestly take a 3-4 week baby to a foreign country to sit on a beach with our lovely post baby bodies :)
