Excited about him getting leave!

C • 1👼🏻TTC #1 👪 Fur Momma 🐕🐕

Sooo.... I’ll try to make this long story as short as possible.

-Found out we were expecting almost a week before Easter.

-Husband was set to deploy for a YEAR and received a Mission Essential letter a few days after which pulled him almost a full month sooner.

-Started having a miscarriage at 5 weeks , 3 days before he had to leave. 😭

-I’m still dealing with the pregnancy loss, my second(first was during my first marriage). I miss how sweet and happy my husband was when I told him. 😢

- I didn’t realize it bothered him that much until he got over there and was telling his Admiral what had gone down days before he got there.

-I STILL think about it at least every other day. Maybe God knew it wasn’t the right time?

GOOD NEWS:

-Just found out he can take a week of leave because he has to come back to the states for a special training. Whoohoo!!!!!

-Is it bad that I’m like let’s try again even though he’d still be gone for the birth?

I just don’t know. Ughhh 🤦🏻‍♀️

Military life is hard. I’d say go for it. You dont want to miss out on an opportunity to make a baby! Even if he’s not home for the birth, he’ll be home for lots of other milestones.

We’ve been trying for just over a year now. We both saw a dr when we had been trying for 10 months. He’s sailing now and will be home in a month. Fingers crossed for some long overdue BDing haha

We definitely tried while he was home. No dice...AF still arrived. I’m scheduled to see a reproductive endocrinologist in September maybe he’ll have answers. Or it’s God’s way of saying not until he’s home.
