DH away at weeks 35/36 for 7-10 days??

[SamiH]

My husband travels weekly/fortnightly with work and can be away from 3 - 6 days depending on whether he has gone to Darwin, Perth, or more easily accessible Melbourne etc.

We have an agreement of no travel after 36 weeks, or other risky stuff like his love of dirt motorbike riding with his mates ....

Agree it depends on where he is actually going and how long it would take him to get back - and if it was for leisure i'd be telling him no way if work purposes, I think that time is ok - but only if he could get back fairly quickly if need be.

Thanks Guys,

I might have to gear up my mum for the 'just in case', as much as it pains me to picture the labour without DH there. I never even gave a thought to asking someone else as a backup untill now cause him not being there wasn't really an option.

I think I'll let the issue sit for a bit more untill it does get closer and see how we're both feeling. I guess I can't also stress out from now about the unkown cause there's still a bit of time to go and i don't want to spend it stressing. We'll both have to make the decision within the next month or so.

I appreciate all the advice and support. I'll let you know how we go.

27 weeks today and 13 to go!

thanks again

Hope everything is well with everyone and
