My husband is coming home today. Luckily he was only in New Jersey and was never overseas. He was able to come home once a week for a day or two. I really miss him but a lot has changed in the year and a half that he was gone. (He is in the reserves and his unit was activated) The biggest change is, we had another baby who is now one. I am just really worried that we are going to be at each others throats while he is home. Don't get me wrong, I am so happy that he is coming home but I am worried what it will do to our relationship. He is a really easy going guy and is very laid back. He is the best husband in the world and I love and adore him. Any pointers on how to make this transition easier?

Awww, not too many women can say they have the best hubby in the world and sound as convincing as you! Just make sure he knows that's how you feel about him, enjoy spending time with him and the new (to him still) baby, don't worry so much - it will rub off on him, let him do a few of the things you've become used to doing on your own - all men want to feel needed, and just be happy........Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Just don't try and rush things. If he had been overseas he would have been through counseling to tell him not to try and immediately step back into the role he left. I'm not sure if he would have had the same counseling since he was stateside.
Since he was able to be home that often then the situation shouldn't be that difficult, just a little time to get back into a routine.

No matter how much in love you are, there will be an adjustment to living together again, just like there probably was when you got married. Just remember how you all reached common ground when living together before. You will be ok in time.

dont push the child on him. let him go to the child they neither one know the other. let him be. let him call the shots if he sleeps let him sleep. your fortunate mine is overseas and gone for 7 months before i see him again. dont throw yourself at hm either let him call all the shots even whats for dinner

I'm sure he'll be ecstatic about seeing his baby and you, there's also likely to be some pent-up sexual tension that you'll both want to release. Your bed may not survive the first night that he's home. ;)

Don't get used to him being home....unfortunately.
This idiot president will do his best to get you husband sent overseas to die.
May God Bless though.
