My Fiance, My Solider

[Allie1981]

Where do I begin about this wonderful guy in my life. Not only is he loving, caring and wants the world for me and our daughter but he is also a solider.We found out that I was pregnant after he had left for training to go to Iraq with his Navy Seabee unit. So unfortunately he will not be here for the birth of our daughter in February.

 There are days when I miss him so much. And today was no exception b/c I stayed home from work. I haven't been feeling that great b/c of my sinus and today was a really bad day for me.

I don't know why I get depressed I guess it is just b/c he is not here. But today is the first day I really got depressed. I think alot of it has to do with the fact that I feel so alone at times. I have his family but not him. I know it is as tough for him as it is for me not to have him here. This morning I actually woke up crying b/c he wasn't here to comfort me when I woke up from a nap. 

Am I stupid for getting down and feeling like this? Or is it just the pregnancy that is making me feel this way?

No, you are not stupid for feeling this way.  I can totaly understand why you feel this way, just knowing that he is far away is hard to deal with and to top it off being pregnant doesn't make things easier (all the hormons kickin' in).  I have a hard enough time when my husband leaves to Connecticut once a week every month for work.  It's okay to cry, don't think you're being silly, let it out - it'll make you feel better. 

I'll be praying for you and for your fiance's safe return.  By the way, thank him for fighting for the freedom we take for granted!
