babies, babies, babies and more babies!?
my hubby and i are in the army, and we're scheduled to deploy soon. my first deployment. i really want to deploy not only because i think the experience is good, and the money is amazing, but also because in the army regardless of your rank the only way to get true respect is with a combat patch. i cant deploy if im pregnant, and we really really really want a baby. i cant decide if i should deploy and wait to have a baby or just do it now. he said he is ready whenever i am. but i cant decide. help?
we are both already parents from previous relationships... i am a mother of two and he is a father of three... all together we have 5!!! we still want one more, the other kids dont live with us.
deploying to iraq

this is a really difficult question really only you can answer. depending on your MOS also. I would suggest deploying now and waiting until you AND your husband are home together during the pregnancy and birth!

Bringing a baby into the world all depends on you and your husband. I would say go for it now, but on the other hand, is your husband going to be deployed for a extended period of time? Will he be there for the pregnancy or birth? These are questions you two need to sit down and talk about. But if your ready to be a mommy, then go ahead and start trying!
By the way, I commend you and your husband VERY much for being in the Army. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!

ok your talking about deploying...but to where? overseas, or to the middle east?
if it's overseas you can still have a baby..but to the middle east...well not to scare you but what if you come back and you can't have a baby due to some illness or worst yet an injury? My cousin went to Iraq for only 3 months before she found out she was pregnant and came home.
Now my brother is over there and is coming home soon (hoping) but he has a child that is 3 now.
so just to keep the family name going and alive...have your child now..your going to deal with your own "combat" zone with the kid...
have fun trying to get pregnant and if you do it was meant for you to stay here, but if you don't..then it's meant for you to go. give it about a couple of months. then decide.
God bless and thank you for fighting for my rights...as well as others..your a hero already.

disgusting if i do say so myself to wait till you know your going to be deployed to decide whether or not you want to get pregnant...funny a guy would be punished if he intentionally did something to be non deployable but a woman can intentionally get pregnant good luck hope it makes you proud of your combat patch
