Well he's gone and i'm crying

Hello,4cuteboys,sorry to hear that your husband have to leave you for 6 months,I know it is hard to leave your loved one for so long. You can still keep contact with him by phones,emails,webcams,I hope 6 months will pass soon so you can see him again soon. Your husband is also a member in mylot right,may be he can also post some recent photos to you so that you know how he is going. Good luck.

i can share your sadness. my sister is in saudi arabia. it is a year and a half now. she came to visit us 3 weeks ago and it felt like i couldnt bear another 6 months. we are the best of friends and have a connection. i cant imagine being without my husband for even a week, let alone 6 months. how are you going to cope? i would cry constantly. just be strong. its not easy but i bet you will be okay. you must be a strong woman letting him go for that long.

That must be the hardest thing in the world to do, saying good bye to your husband for 6 months.It sounds like you have your hands full with the babies and another coming plus the move,you have my prayers as dose you husband for his safe return.The time will go quickly im sure with all you have to deal with but I hope you can contact your hubby often to make the missing a little less for you. GOD BLESS.

You are Not being a Big baby!! This is Huge! WOW I'm spechless..I cannot image and am sorry that you have to go through it. But you know Mylot has made it so possible for you and I and others to become close and to be here for you as much as we can. and before you know it he will be back, not to mention it seems like you have a lot to come =) Hang in there kiddo I will pray for you and your family! Your Friend Stacy

Hon don't think you are a big baby at all for crying about your husband leaving. My husband served in Desert Storm for six months and I bawled when he left and cried many days while he was gone. My daughter cried every time she talked to him, she was five years old at the time, so he started calling when he knew she was asleep so she wouldn't get upset. I hope your birth of your new little one goes well for you, I know you wish he could be there. If you ever need to call me please PM here and I'll give you my phone number. If I can't do anything but listen please know I am here for you hon. God Bless! SheliaLee

I am sorry to hear that. I can understand it's a difficult time. My husband ever had short time business trip for about a week. And I already felt a little upset to it. Six months isn't a short time. You have to face and solve the problems by yourself. I hope all the difficulties will be gone. Have some faith and I am sure your husband will miss you very much, too. Wish you have a nice baby, cheers!

Oww man that sucks, and very sad that he has to miss all those events. At least you have us here at myLot to keep you company.

I'm sorry- That stinks! Hopefully the six months will fly right by for you and your family- You've got alot of things to keep you busy! The move, the new baby (of course the birth)! , vacation at your parents- how fun it will be for the kids! You will get through it and you are not a baby! Chin up- keep coming on mylot- we'll keep you company!

yes cutie, i can very well understand your situation , since my husband has a very busy schedule, he is very busy most of the time, for about 15 days a month, he has to live in outstations, so i really miss him. and so i understand your situation, you will be misssing your husband for whole six months, anyone could be depressed by such kind of situation

I don't think you are being a baby at all..you are responding as any person would who's significant other is leaving for an extended period of time...I feel sorry for you and hope that your time apart goes quickly. You must be a strong woman to be able to handle all of those responsibilities on your own. Don't be calling yourself names, instead be proud of your strength in getting through each event/day/month the best way possible. I hope we can all be there for you in the sense of listening and supporting your endeavor's...you have those lovely little faces to be strong for and just think ahead toward the days when you are all back together again and life is once again including every day with the whole family.... I will say prayers for God to give you the strength you need each day...and although it may seem overpowering, I know you will do your best...and we will be proud..and your children will grow up with such a great role model and such wonderful memories of a women of strength and character that cared enough to work hard and raise them right...Best of luck throughout this "short" separation...and know that your husband has quite a wonderful partner in this relationship and I'm sure he appreciates you and all you do....Be strong...and keep love in our heart...we'll be hear to listen and give you all our corny advice!!LOL

I am so sorry!! My hubby has never been deployed but once he cross-trains he will be. It doesn't bother me as much though. I get along fine when he goes TDY and stuff, even though something usually goes wrong in the house and I have to TRY to fix it. Just focus on your kids and try to have lots of fun with them!! Stay busy planning the birthday parties and planning for your new little boy!! I can't imagine how hard that is going to be for you, I am really sorry because it is hard enough having a spouse present when you have a new baby, but having to do it by yourself would be extra extra hard. Do you have any family close to you? I don't have any words of advice, just stay strong for your kids!!! It isn't much but I will be here if you need to talk =)

I don't blame you one bit for being a baby. I feel your sadness and yet my husband has never been in the military. He did visit his parents once for a few days. He was only 9 hours away and I missed him terribly. I couldn't imagine him being gone for 6 months... :*(

I just wanted to know that I'll be keeping your family in my prayers & may the six months go by fast.

My heart goes out to you, It is a huge sacrifice for you as well as for him. And I thank both of you for your sacrifices.

It is hard to watch them go and to think about them not coming home for a long time. Keep your head up. It sounds like you have quite a few things to keep you busy. The busier you are the faster it will go.

Oh, you have every right to be crying! You are not a baby! This has to be soooo hard on you. He is missing a lot and on top of that, the birth of your child. THat has to be hard. But, I'm sure you will do just fine. Just have faith and keep yourself busy. Try not to think to much on the stuff that he will be missing out on because that might just make you more sad. I know you will get through this. Do you have anyone else there for you? Well, be strong... you can do it!

Oh Sweetie, I feel so bad for you. My husband is in Australia and has been since February and I understand completely. He missed our anniversary and a bunch of stuff too, but I can't imagine him being gone while my child was born. I know when my hubby left I was fine until I got home from the airport...then I just cried for like two days... You are not being a big baby. You are obviously a woman who loves her hubby and will miss him. That's nothing to be ashamed of. In my opinion, more people need to be willing to express that kind of love.

Awww, 4cuteboys. I can understand what you're feeling. Do try to holler 100 of your friends to accompany you, LOL! I know it must be pretty hard for you. But time pass by quickly and before you know it, 6 months will be over and your husband will be there beside you again. Take care of yourself especially you're now having another baby. I remember you mentioned your baby will be the 4rth one.

You are not being a baby. You have so much going on. Taking care of 4 young boys, and pregnant! You have to be a strong women to take that on. I know your husband feels bad for leaving. I'm sure he would much rather be with you and your sons. He will miss you guys so much. I hope you have someone to help you pack and move. If I could I would help you. Take care of yourself and all 5 of your boys.

you sure have a lot on your plate that he will miss. i wish there was some way i could help. bless his heart for doing what he's doing though, oh my! and bless you for all you're taking on.
