Hi there, just wondering what you would do?

Recently DH & I moved to a mining town for his new job, we left behind family & friends when I was just 4months pregnant. We did go back for the birth of DS & were there for just a couple weeks. DH works a roster of 7days, a couple off, then 7nights & a couple off & so on. Anywho the issue is he is rostered on to work nightshift over Christmas, this means he will be sleeping during the day & working at night, so we really don't get to see a lot of him. As we are new to the town & don't have family here we would prob just join an "orphan's" Christmas with some of the friends we have made that are in the same situation. The thing is DH has said I should fly home with DS for Christmas instead, meaning he will miss DS first ever Christmas.....however we will get to go home & spend the time with family that haven't seen us in 8months, do a big lunch & so on. If we stay here, we will go somewhere for Lunch without DH with people I know, but not that well & he will prob rock up later for just a little bit. I know DS wont remember & doesn't even know what it's about, but it is a special time.

Just wondering what others would choose????
