No, no no! Is all I can say. I thought that I was, but I also forgot that I have never done this as a mom! I hate the Navy this evening, and although I know this is what I signed up for, doesnt mean I have to like it! I would vent this on the mommy board, but again lack of support and comfort are present there. I guess it is because I am no known by many of the people on the board, but there is just a lack of support. Most things posted there by me, go to the bottom or next page! Oh well! I am joining the FRG group, which is great for me. I need to be surrounded by people who know what I am going thru. What being married to a deployable husband is like and what being on surge truly means! I also question my job status alot. Do I stay working full time, do I find a part time job? I dont know. I love the income, but the job is tiring and makes me irratable. I also feel as if my children are being abandoned. What to do, what to do...more to come I am sure!

You're right...no one understands that KNOWIN what is coming doesn't make it any easier to actually go through! Joining the FRG is probably a very good idea. Not sure what to tell you about the job situation, other than to pray and ask God what the right choice is for you. You may find that working helps take your mind off of things...or it just may make you even more weary. God will show you what the best decision for you is. Hang in there...you WILL make it through this! Lots of prayers for you guys right now :)
I truly hope you find the support you need..FRG sounds like a good idea..I'm sorry you aren't finding it in places where you used to.
As for the job thing..I truly do not regret leaving my job..I very much enjoy being home..not having to rely on daycare/babysitters..I do miss getting out though..so make sure you do that for yourself if you do make the decision to leave..
Like Amy say..Pray..God will lead you in the direction you are meant to be going..I'll be praying for you too..and we can start setting up our dinner meet ups..we can help each other through it all..
Pray, pray, pray! And I will be praying FOR you! Pray for guidance, comfort, strength, and joy... Ask and God will honor that request, since it is within His desires for YOU. Be open to any decision He leads you to...
I'm sorry you're looking for comfort and not finding it. Look other places. Come HERE! I don't leave until May or June!!!
Love and hugs! Prayers, too.
Hey! I have not met you yet but am so sorry to hear you do not feel supported by the mommy group. Seems it is in a bit of a transition and boards are kind of slow. I have not been through a deployment and sometimes that makes me feel like I am not a REAL navy wife. I can not say I truly understand what it is like to go through a deployment but it must be so hard. I cant imagine. Yall are heroes! For real. FRG will probably be a great place! Anyway, come out and play sometime. I am not sure who all you know but I am newer to the group and go to a lot of meet ups. I am going to be out of town for a while but I would love to actually meet you. Hang in there, and I agree with the other ladies pray, pray, pray! I hope to meet you soon.
