DH is leaving to go on vacation with his buddies while Im home being PG. Need some very honest opinions!

Dont get me wrong its not like I even have any days left to go on vacation. But its just that Im so nervous he's leaving for a week to go on a BIKE trip. Meaning motorcycle trip. Him and 2 other guys are riding their bikes to Florida and camping for a few days and then coming back. I didnt mind last yr when they did this but Im just so nervous something is going to happen to him. Horrible to say I know. I just wish I could get over it. What would you do? Should I ask him not to go or does that sound like a bad wife?

How far along are you? Unless you are towards the end, I would probably just let him go. Just make sure he checks in often so you have some peace of mind.

I don't think you sound like a bad wife. It's not that you don't want him to have fun but you're scared since it's a motorcycle. I agree that you should just ask him to check in with you frequently so you're not constantly stressed.

Re: DH is leaving to go on vacation with his buddies while Im home being PG. Need some very honest opinions!

I agree with PP, unless you're at the very end I'd let him go. Actually my DH just got back from Vegas last night with 5 of his friends, to celebrate 2 of the guys' 40th birthdays. I'm 22 weeks and all is going well, so there was no reason for him not to go.
He's not 'mushy' but I know he appreciated my being cool with it; the way I see it, it's his last 'hurrah' before Chat Icon arrives, and I'm glad he had fun. Make sure he answers his phone when you call, AND set a time to check in every day.

Frankly you might find you enjoy the peace and quiet for a few days, I LOVED having the remote to myself, and I slept like a log while he was gone!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I agree. Chat Icon

Take this week to get much needed rest and keep yourself busy. Read a book, go get a massage, get a mani/pedi, make a date with some girlfriends too!

Enjoy it!

I totally know what you mean. DH is a highway police officer and is on a motorcycle whenever it is nice outside. I HATE IT!! I am so nervous that he is going to die or end up in a horrific accident that will leave him on a respirator. Since he loves riding so much he wants to get a bike of his own!! I told him to forget it!! You are a lot stronger than me to be ok with your DH riding at all. If it were me... I would ask him not to go on the trip. But then again... I would ask him not to go on the bike ever again!! Chat Icon Chat Icon

I understand how you feel, but I think he will be just fine if he goes.

I found that after I had DD, I worried a lot more about "What if" something happened to me or DH. It's only natural.

During my first pg, DH had to go away on business a trip a month before my due date, and I was in a panic the entire time. This time around, he will be going away about a week before my c-section, and I am not worried at all.

Let him go, don't worry! Enjoy having the bed to yourself..Chat Icon

this is what it sounds like to me.

i can't tell you what to do since my DH doesn't ride, but if you are sure he will be safe and call to check in with you often, i would lean towards not making a big deal out of it. i hope he stays safe Chat Icon

You do not sound like a bad wife. Things are different this time thats all. As for your worries...it doesn't matter long distance or local, something bad could happen anywhere so I would probably just let him go and like others said, ask him to check in often.
