Big mommy problem
Show your support
I’m sorry you’re going through this but your husband needs to step up to be there for you. there’s no other option if I’m reading right so there should be no question. Even if he does start a new job soon I’m sure they will be accommodating to his wife having a baby! Good luck
Yeah, that’s your husband’s job. There should be no excuse. New job or not. You and the birth are more important, shouldn’t be a question. Imagine having to worry about having someone to pick you up from the hospital with a newborn and CSection body while having a whole husband! Might as well be single then…
U said husband right?? Because the fact that this is even a question is crazy to me. That’s your HUSBAND, there’s no “might not be available.” Unacceptable.
Can you drop your daughter to them? I’ve heard of women taking cabs or Ubers when they leave the hospital. Sometimes not even needing a car seat just holding baby. If you’re alone I’d trying to find someone. I don’t know what else you can do besides hiring someone if you don’t have him or family to step in. Maybe switch hospitals to be closer to family? I’m sorry you are going through this.
@Kass he wants to so badly however if he gets a job before I give birth (very necessary) he won’t be able to take off potentially.
@Danica yes I agree with you. It’s not that he doesn’t want to be there he really does but we need the money and he can’t afford to be out of work it will screw us so badly
I understand and that’s where his job accommodating the situation comes into play. You’re having a baby they cannot hold him for that. One day to watch your daughter and pick you up from the hospital isn’t going to hurt, they can make him use a sick day or something but either way they cannot penalize him for that. Otherwise he does not need to work there. Something’s gotta give cause you need all the support you can get on “birth” day. Good luck to you, I wish things were better on your end. A village is so important for times like this.
@Danica yeah I agree totally! I don’t want to be alone when I go to give birth but it’s looking more and more like it
Your husband has to be there for you!!!
