I don't know what to say honey. It will be hard, but you just have to be thankful that your man is willing to do whatever he has to do to take care of his family. Millions of women do this on their own. You can find support in your area. I am a part of a couple playgroups where we get together with our kids once or twice a month and babysit for each other and just support each other. You could find women at your church. Just look for other moms (at your job, in your neighborhood) and reach out to them. I'm sure you can find some ladies to help you get through this time. Take care.

What line of work is your dh in? Would it be possible for him to look into jobs closer to home either before he leaves or while he is there. That way he can get home asap.

Pregnancy is a verry hard thing to do alone you need that emotional support however if its any guidence at all know that he would be bringing you emotional support thru the idea that he is doing everything he can to make ends meet and provide for his new family! Find ways to occupy yourself (my husband works alot-i.E ive read almost every pregnancy book, and I write all my friends random fun letters) find way to stay healthy and happy and communicate thru letters and phone calls... Join a mommy walking club of some sort.. Know it will be hard but not impossible!

Dont Worry

Try not to worry honey, first baby's are always frightening. We never know what to expect, can we afford them with a partner away, your time will be taken up with loving and cherishing your baby, before you know it he will be back. All a baby needs is love, things always seem to work out in the end. Have faith and think positive.

I can here you thinking "and what does she know", I know believe me, just try and be strong
