Work-away dads? How to single-mom?

Corli

Hubby just got a job offer in Liberia. Our 1st baby is due in May 2024. I dont know how to feel. Exciting opportunity and loads more cash, but i work myself and we dont really need the extra income that bad (i mean we all need extra money, but were managing). Hubby will be gone months at a time and our child will probably think he's a stranger everytime he comes back. How do I prepare myself for raising this baby alone? Anyone with advice?
