[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- my husband is on a ship that he received orders to after we were pregnant and he has to deploy with the ship for a training exercise. It was announced not long ago. I don't think I am special and understand the realities of being a military spouse. I also know that if the tables were turned, I would have definitely rescheduled an important work meeting or social engagement to help out for a week. That is wha[b]t I need to let go of and just take her for who she is and what is important in her life[/b].[/quote] It's the bolded that makes you sound awful. You know you're important to her. What she may see is, you have time to line up childcare yet you want her to drop everything for you. Your having a baby (and not your first) not having sudden life threatening surgery. This isn't new, you need to behave like an adult and get your necessities taken care of, not expect them to be taken care of for you. [/quote]
