Well I was a Marine wife until about 2 months ago. My hubby get medically retired because of 7 knee surgeries. I am 27 with a 6 yr. old daughter, and a 3 yr. old son, and I have 4 weeks left until my baby girl is here. So i can relate. I hope you are doing well!!
so how did you cope while he was gone? was he ever away while you were pregnant? i kind of just miss the closeness while hes away. plus im scared about having the baby while hes away because i dont have any friends or family to help when i come home from the hospital. so have you chosen a name for you new daughter yet? i really like the name Jasmine. well congrats on your husband getting out. mine still has 3.5 years. but he plan on not reenlisting so hopefull he'll stick to that decision.
My husband just got back from Afghanistan - I'm also 8 months pregnant. It was sad to not have him here for nearly the entire pregnancy (this is our second child)
thank you so much for contacting me! im really happy for you that you husband is home. will he be home for the birth of the baby? i have been doing what i can to keep him involved. but its still gets kind of sad. im not sure yet what the base offers as far as support. this
