[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several posters are saying OP needs a plan if she goes into labor and he can’t get back. She has her parents but even if she did not, the plan would be “go to the hospital.” From the onset of labor to actually having the baby is likely to be much longer than 18 hours. He could get back unless it’s an all out emergency. If it’s an all out emergency, the complete plan is “get to a hospital.”[/quote]

Of course she goes to hospital. Someone who didn't have close family or was estranged could have a friend be with her as a labor partner, advocate for her, etc. or even have a doula.

If the "18 hours" is door to door or flight time makes a difference. Hawaii is 2 5.5 hour flights from IAD but it takes us much longer than 12 hours to get there.  There have to be plane schedules to juggle. Australia you get home the date you leave and travel almost a day. 
So the plan for husband may be don't panic, get home when you can and meet us!
Or it might be, finish your trip. We will be looking forward to seeing you.[/quote]
