Aww congrats ladies! Missa, has anyone brought up that your husband may not actually deploy with his unit? I know a couple of girls here that were 8 months preggo when their husbands were supposed to be leaving and they were allowed to stay back until after the birth. I hope this is a possibility with you guys!

Once or twice they have, but it was mentioned to my OH that that would really only happen if there was something life-threatening with me or the baby. So on that note, I don't want to get my hopes up, lol, but fingers crossed
