hi, I'm in my third trimester with my first baby, and my partner and I have just got our first home together, however his job entails him to work away for 2 weeks at a time and after those 2 weeks he's only home Friday evenings to very early(5am usually) Monday morning, and then he's off again.
I've recently found myself crying every night purely from missing him and wanting him to be around. it keeps me up till all hours in a morning, even though we speak every single night, and sometimes - if we're lucky - during the day. I used to be able to deal with this only occasionally getting upset, but now I feel down all day, and worse at bed time.
I feel it could also be to do with the fact that I'm due very soon, and I'm so worried he's not going to be around for when I give birth. I don't feel like i could get through it without him, and the thought he won't be there to hold my hand terrifies me.
I don't like to tell him how I feel too much because I know he'll miss me too, and be homesick on top of that... he'll also probably be feeling left out of the pregnancy as he's missed most clinic appointments(not scans thank god) and I know that when I do tell him how I'm feeling it upsets him dearly because he's too far away to be able to do anything about it.
any help/advice on how I can pull myself together and get through this for the next several weeks?? I can't go on like this, it's driving me insane. not to mention I'm so exhausted from staying up late each night thinking and crying about it. I know hormones have a huge part to play but I'm just so fed up of being pregnant and alone.
thankyou x
