DH travels
It's a budget cycle time for DH, which means lots of traveling. For some reason, I am already starting to feel anxious about it, even though I am not even 36 weeks yet. He is going to stop mid-August when I am 38 weeks (like he did with G), but I really wish it were sooner. Going into labor without him is scarier this time, as if it happened in the middle of the night I would have a major scramble to get someone to watch G while I go to the hospital. G's nanny will be "on call" but I'd feel much better if I had a back-up. Several of our friends offered and I'd definitely use them if it happened during the day, but not really comfortable waking them at 3 AM. Worst case scenario, G going to the hospital with me. Ouch.
I almost want to tell Michael to stop travelling after this week, but that would mean he has to do the rest of the trips right after the baby is born. Which would suck big time. So I guess I just have to hope that this baby will not arrive before 38 weeks. He really should not, but my brother did arrive at 37 weeks (after me being born on time), and the u/s/ measurements were about 3 weeks ahead this time, so it's likely he's bigger than average. I guess I should try to come up with a back-up plan. One of those times I wish we did have family nearby.
