After my baby born,my husband and I have to separate. He works in a city that far from us, and my baby and I live in my parents house,so that,my mom can help me take care of my baby.And I don't konw how long this situation will last.I have to work here,but I miss my husband very much. I hope my baby can grow faster, so that I can go to my husband's city,with my little baby.

Hi friend...Currently, I also in a long distance marriage. I stay in my mother's house with my daughter. While, my husband work in other city, we need 4 hours to come the city. I have to be patient, because we still wait our new house in other city where my husband work. Yes, every day we miss him. But, I try to enjoy it , because we can call each other and always romantic when we meet in weekend. I hope you enjoy with your situation to reduce your stress and make a romantic meeting with your husband when he come to your city. Have a nice day...

Long-distance marriage is miserable. My husband's former job require him to travel frequently in diffenent cities. We both can not afford this and he finally quit this job. At that time, his job earns a good salary. But now, we both can learn a little. I don't know how long we can stand on this poor life. Now we just feel happy life with each other. We will try our best to improve our living condition any way.

My sister is in a similar situation. Her husband was assigned to work in another country. She had to stay with their two young kids since they can't still afford for all of them to go to the country where her husband works. I feel it's difficult having this kind of set up, not only for my sister but also for her kids as well. Although they constantly communicate using Skype, physical presence is still very important. I guess a lot of us has to make sacrifices for awhile. I hope an opportunity comes wherein both of you could work in the same city

i don't think it is impossible for you to join your husband. millions of mothers worldwide take care of their babies by themselves. can you not do it too? it must be hard o your husband, being away from both of you. just pack your bags and go to where he is.
