Hi everyone, My husband was just home for R&R, and we were trying to get pregnant (R&R baby,lol) He left 7 days ago. I am 3 days late for AF. I'm tired, I get dizzy, I have no appetite at all, so I took a test and it says negitive. He said it's because it's too early, but then why would AF be late? I'm so confused and anxious...Any insight would be great, Thanks.

Hey ladies. This whole pregnancy thing is alot harder around this time, which is weird since I'm married to a great man. With my first pregnancy the father and I were dating and he got orders to Korea, when I was about 16 weeks. We knew he was leaving 2 weeks after the due date so I never attached him to the family life of our child. He would be gone and I was stuck at my base. Although we talked on the phone/webcam/im it didn't work out. This time I'm married to the most wonderful guy. He is a great daddy to my daughter, a great husband and my best friend. I keep worrying though. I snap at him for no reason, and have a fear that even though we are married and he is wonderful he will change his mind about me eventually too. I hate the thought of him deploying again but our deal was he stayed AD for 20 years if I got out to take care of our kids. How do I stop stressing about these things? I have never done the AF wife before I was the AF before. Any advise would be great.

This isnt a pregnancy thing i just dont know where else to go. My husband has been in korea since sept. and at first it was fine he'd call twice a day and we'd talk for a little bit but as time went on it went from twice a day on the phone, to once a day on video chat to sundays, mondays, tuesdays and webnesday we IM and he'd call on friday nights (mytime) and we'd talk then. now its Mon, Tue, Web on just im. he has also become very controlling and agressive. I cant even try and talk to him about anything serious or he'll hang up and doesnt call back for awhile. Its not just serious things either alot of the time its nothing. I have to walk on egg shell's everytime i talk to him. And he freaks if i talk to ANYONE about how our marriage is. Finally the other day i was worried because i hadnt heard from him in 5 days and i called one of my friends whose husband is my husbands battle buddy. I was worried and helpless i didnt have anyway of calling him he recently had to get a diferent phone i i hadnt gotten his new number. i just asked her if he had seen him at all. so after i told her how long it had been. (she asked and i didnt want to ly-She's my closest friend) her hubby went to go check and my husband freaked out on me. Then today i was trying to explain y i had turned to her and that i was worried and he siad that i had to stop talkig to ALL the wives in 2-1 or he'd leave me. Including my bestfriend. i didnt want to loose him, he was never like this before, i love him and i know he loves me but i dont know what to do. i cant talk to anyone over there, no NCO'c no nothing or he will leave me, i know he will. He has always gotten upset when i talked to myfriends but he has never threatened me with our marriage and he knows i cant do anything because he is across the world. He even admitted he knew he was adusing me (emotionally) and his deployment to get me to do what he want And its crazy because like 5 mins later he acts like he didnt just do that me. He is the altamit Dr. Jeckel and Mr. Hide.what do i do? How do i cope? i love him and i dont want ot loose my marriage i dont want to loose our family? help!!

Hello all my fellow silent rankers!! I have a quesiton... Has anyones husbands switched branches of service? If so how lod did it take and do you have ANY tips on how to hurry things along? We have been sitting ducks since june had to wait 90 days so Sept is when the recritor started to actively get things going.. He took his asvab did the wavers and picked his top three jobs.. i am so SICK of waiting! lol So they say 'Hurry up and wait' i think we define that term.. lol so he is jobless and i am lookin with a newborn.. this stinks lol.. by the way we are going Army to Navy!!

Hi just wanted to leave a message for all the ladies in the UK. Its hard when the OH is away but am not sure if anyone has told you, there is a company called Saffa you can contact. its for military personnel and families. They can help with anything. I think thats how you spell saffa but you can find it online. they can even help after you have left service.

Happy2b~ This is not a good situation. The chances of you finding him are not too good. If he lied to you about his name, highly likely, you could make a lot of men very nervous. If you have no photo, no last name, no idea of his job, or what he was at training for you may never find him. You can contact the military pape, Stars and Stripes, and for the Navy you have the Navy Times and post a personal on there. I have seen many over the years. You can put a photo of yourself and describe the guy you are looking for with the wording you are looking for 'guy's name' and the date that you two meet and where. If he told anyone or if he reads this you will have better luck doing it that way than calling anyone and giving information. Good luck to you on your baby. I know this is important to you but you need to know that a large portion of men in the military, and of course otherwise, will lie and decieve to get busy. Just the hard reality of life. Try the papers and make sure to include a photo of yourself in the ad...

I am due May 13th, and the father of my unborn child is currently stationed in Fort Campbell KY. I We've been together on and off for about a year. I He joined the Army in March, and I havent seen him since August when the baby was concieved. It is very difficult going through the pregnancy without him. We used to talk everyday, and were even supposed to get married, but that never happened. Now we are not speaking because he suddenly is denying his child, saying that I am too far along because he doesnt understand how the due-date is came up with. He doesnt want to talk to me until the baby is here and we can get a DNA test done. It seems he just wants to pay child support then, but have nothing to do with me and his child. But he thinks he will be getting deployed btwn June and September. Im worried he wont get to ever meet his child and that I might not even get the DNA test done necessary to get any support from him.

Happy2b~ Do you know what branch of the military he is? Do you know what his job is? If you had that someone could help you find him... If he is AF private message me, but really you don't want to announce to his command that you are pregnant and need to find John who works in ___ and was TDY to ____ 3 months ago. It would not go over well for you or for him and they might stone wall you.

Please don't judge - just looking for advice/help. I spent a weekend on vacation and met a guy...now I'm pregnant. I know his first name and where he is normally stationed. He was at a training facility when I met him. Can anyone offer any advice as to how to go about finding him? Is there a particular office at his base I should contact? It's here in the US. I do not know military protocol and would like to respect his privacy, so want to ensure this is handled in a confidential manner. I do believe he has a right to know though. Thank you!

Hey Ladies! I just wanted to post because I am SOOOO excited that my DH is due to be home soon! When he left I was 6 weeks for the 4th time... I should be 7 months pregnant right now but I miscarried, for the fourth time, a few weeks after DH left. The entire deplyment I have been trying to get my body back in order and get some testing done. I still have no answers for any of my four miscarriages but DH and I are hopeful and are going to keep trying! I am just happy that we will be able to try again soon! Thanks for listening guys!

HI ladies! My husband has been deployed to Iraq for the past 4 months, it is definitely tough being a single mom right now in Italy but at the same time having my son makes the emotional stress of deployments a little easier. Our son just turned 16 months and is a handful but I don't know what I would do without him. Hubby should be home right before Christmas! If anyone ever wants to chat feel free to write me :)
