While I was gone

Hey all! Sorry I've been Mia. While I was gone I had to hand over my phone bc my husband lost his job (just in time for the holidays!) I don't have Internet & the phone I was borrowing doesn't get Pregly! I got a new phone but it also won't find the Pregly app so I'm trying to figure it out!

It's been stressful bc he had a great job... And he's been very down. Not handling it well... Feeling like a loser. Trying to find another job but this town is awful and the pay stinks. Praying it's a blessing in disguise though & he finds something that will allow us to catch up or keep up AND allow for him to be home & feel like a part of the family since he was away so much!

Sometimes I wanna ship him back bc of his bad attitude but I'm trying to have patience. One major day I was trying was the 21st when we had our first dr visit! He was CRANKY and ruined the day... Made me so sad. We didn't get to hear the heartbeat, but she tried, and I did see that he was excited when hoping we would. I asked my questions and felt good about my midwife... We go back dec 12 for our 12 wk app & I know well hear baby Elmer then!!! :)

I've been very tired. Crampy. Feeling sick but not throwing up. And have had some "booger" moments that I actually get excited about!!! Lol hoping that all is well, just wishing my husband wasn't taken over with stress and depression so he could want to be a part of this and maybe help when I need some comfort or ask about Elmer like he used to when he was away... But inside I'm happy and thankful for this blessing and am staying strong and trying not to stress.

I hope everyone is good... Anything new over the last two weeks or so!?!??

  • I am so sorry to hear about your hubbys job! I know how hard it is. We are moving out of our town bc there is no work here :(
    I hope things look up for you! I will be praying for you guys! Congrats again in Elmer :-D
    I got a positive on my ovulation test strip!
    Now we will just wait & see
  • &prayin_4_twins lol I was just commenting on your post!!! Yippee!! \:D/ baby dust to u!!

    Ugh my husband and I would love to move but with being so close to the girls it just isn't an option. I bet he could work back up in north Dakota bc some guys loved him but he just can't take missing all the little moments with his girls and with me being pregnant and all... Which apparently he's forgotten about the latter half of that comment. Lol so... He's gonna try around here first! Thanks for the luck, we sure need it! ;)
  • Im going to be praying God will open a door for him hun!!
  • Stay strong lady! Things will work out. When God closes one door he opens another. Yay for the pregnancy going well!!!
  • :) thanks girls... I can always count on you!!

  • Check out adeccousa.com for job ideas not sure where you are but I'm pretty sure the have jobs all over the country. And my bd was the same way he can be very selfish and rude and cranky but the moment I went into labor he turned into a big softy. Lets just hope he stays that way
  • I know the feeling of what he is feeling and you to. I retired from the police force while my wife was pregnant to have a safer and better home life. However Zander was about 2 days old when my wife told me to go back to the force as I had apparently been a moping grumpy hormonal asshole. Yes she called me that in the hospital in front of her ob lol.

    I know it's hard but try hang in there. He is probably feeling like he is letting you and elmer down at the moment.
  • Oh girl! I am praying for you and hubby like crazy! I'm so sorry to hear this. God will open a new door since this happened for a reason. Perhaps there's an even better job closer to you and Elmer. I pray that there is.

    On a happy note, I'm so glad you are back on here. It had been awhile since I've seen you and I was getting worried!
  • I'm praying for y'all!!! I have an iPhone that doesn't get pregly so I just went and googled it, signed in and saved it as bookmark and Is just as good as the app. Just a thought. :)
  • Thanks guys. We're hanging in there... He's trying to be better lol I know it's such a hit to a mans ego and he just wants to be a provider and put food on the table, pay our bills, and everything else. He has an even bigger burden bc he has to pay his ex's rent too (their agreement for child support... Although we have them over 50% of the time now). Tough stuff.

    Fingers crossed something good comes along soon! I pray the phone interview he had Monday turns in to something good.

    Just gonna try to be a little more patient and a little less stubborn for a bit ;) it's good to vent & be back! Lol

  • Praying lots for you! So sorry that happened at such a joyful time for you. Trials like this are rough. Has he spoken tovthe employment specialist at church? They might know of something that he could do. Even if it's just something to get by until he can find something he REALLY wants to do.
    Good luck my dear!
  • I'm so happy you got preggo I know u were really wanting a baby congrats and I hope everything improves for u
  • @preggointx :) thank u so much!!!

    @musicmomma he's applied to anything and everything. In town & out... This area stinks! Lol he also went to an employment office but it's kind if a joke bc they take such a big cut. For now he just got a side job doing siding & some other things... Praying something good comes along for sure.



    He's really been trying to be a better hubby over the past few days which I'm thankful for. We at least need each other in hard times! That's all we have ;)
  • Well I mean in the church. Ask your bishop who the employment specialist is in your Ward. Maybe they have some leads.
  • Where do u live? My job is hiring but I'm in co...
  • @musicmomma ohhh didn't realize that. I keep telling him to call the bishop but he puts it off over & over... Starting to frustrate me. He said he will tm and I will make sure of it. Thank u :)

    @dra765 we live in Idaho... A crappy little town we hate lol do they have any out this way!?!?
  • Stay strong love, many blessings are headed your way! The best one has already arrived ;-)
  • I'm not sure.. not my department I know. I'm in the credit department at Sprint
