going to be apart for 5 weeks

[MoOaNdLiTtLePoPpEt]

we are moving back home YAY :smiliedance: that's the good part....
except me and DS are leaving 5 weeks prior to DF...so will be apart for that period...me and df will miss each other like CRAZY! But we can cope...where as DS and DP are going to miss each other like crazy....

we have heaps of support back home, so no dramas there....i think it is the pregnancy hormones..

i will keep DS routine...and the good thing is i will have heaps of help if need be, we will be staying with my WONDERFUL MIL and also SIL sometimes as well...

any tips/advice...I am stoked we get to go home...but sad that we have to leave DF behind for 5 weeks!!! :crying:

Keep occupied , and call daddy heaps. I know how you feel, we did it when we moved up here and i refused to do it again with 2 kids and being pregnent.

Just try and stay busy, bubhub was great as well cause i could winge about how much i missed DF lol.

my husband and I were apart for 5 weeks before bubs was born... He arrived a week an a half before she did! It was pretty sucky but we used Skype a lot. Also, time really did fly...

It's hard to know who will miss him more, you or DS. Hubby and I had a total of 30 weeks apart the year before last - longest stretches of 7 and 5 weeks. It was really hard, but skype with cameras was our lifeline.

You have the excitement of being home and lots of support, that will get you through and maybe a chart to mark off the time so he has an idea of how long it's going to be.
