Husband is deploying

Cecilia

So my SO and I just found out he is deploying in February. We are also are expecting our first child in January. He will also be gone for her first year. While we know the great benefits from this deployment it is hard to know he won’t be there for any of her firsts. I am also nervous to have to raise her by myself with out him for awhile. Has anyone gone through this or is going through it have any advice? Thank you in advance
