[quote=Anonymous]Even if DH can't be around, he can take some things off your plate, like researching other childcare options. My DH, even while deployed, does the majority of our household shopping, for example. Amazon Prime sells just about everything, and we've signed up for subscriptions for diapers, detergent, garbage bags, bathroom wipes, etc.. This doesn't cover everything, but it means that if I can't get to the store for a week, there will not be a diaper crisis. When your DH is away for these temporary times, you need to accept AS A COUPLE that it will be more expensive. You get to hire more childcare (an in-home sitter a few hours a week), use grocery delivery, and increase the housekeeping. This is a temporary situation until your child grows up some. If his job can't cover outsourcing his part of maintaining the household, then maybe you can't afford this job that takes him away for so long repeatedly ...[/quote]
