[quote=Anonymous]OP, I feel for you, but you and your husband knew that deployment was a possibility. I am not trying to guilt trip or shame or anything, but the choices you two make as a couple, are for the two of you to deal with. If you expected your mom to help, it would have been best to bring this up with her ahead of time - ie, "in the event that DH is deployed and we have another child, would you be available to help, mom? what time do you think you could give?" But this this discussion wasn't had, it seems very unfair to expect your mom to change what's going on in her life - big or small. Your mom also has her own life now. Feel the hurt now, but please do let it go and move on from those let down expectations. [/quote]
