Hi...my boyfriend and I are trying to have a baby. But the problem is he goes back overseas to war in january. Which would mean either missing the birth or not being around for the first 6 months of our baby's life. And what if he doesn't come home..then i will be raising a baby by myself in such a hard situation. Do you guys think it is a good idea or should we wait till next year when he is home for good and safe?

Sweetgurl - what is the rush in having a baby? If it were me, I would want to share the entire pregnancy with my bf/DH. I would want him to go to the dr's office with me,etc, etc. This is a decision that you and your bf need to make together. Think about his position. Will he be worrying himself overseas? Will he be feeling guilty b/c he can't be there with you to share the joy of pregnancy? God forbid you have a m/c or something go wrong and he can't be there with you. I hope this doesn't some mean b/c I'm not trying to be, but having a child is a very big decision. You have obviously already put a lot of thought into it by the questions you have raised. My suggestion is to talk this over him and get his feelings and opinions. I wish you nothing but the best of luck. :)

I am in the exact same situation as you are. My husband is leaving again to go overseas in July. We have been married for 2 1/2 years now, I want him around for everything, but that really isn't a choice for us. My husband plans to reinlist so we are going to be doing deployments for a long time. I've really thought long and hard about the whole situation, and we decided together that we would rather have him miss out on the pregnancy, than the first months of our baby's life. I hope I helped.
