Write letters and, on a personal note, get to know itself a little better. I have 2 kids and were 9 weeks pregnant. Even if I have my hands full with little ones, I know when my man goes ive gotta get myself a hobby. So ive taken up painting and arts and crafts with my kids. Play dates help with other moms who are in your boat.

My boyfriend has been in the marines for almost a year now. I know this can be really hard at first but what helps is to think of all the good memmories you have had together all the time. Talk about him to your son. Your son is a peice of him and that also might help. Keep in mind how much he loves you and your son.
