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?

Nothing a damn GOOD shag wouldn't cure. Just show him how happy you are he's home and how much your family means to you.

Surely for the 2 or 3 of you including your baby will have a lot of bonding time to do which you can enjoy especially since its been so long for you both apart. If you both love each other then it should be just as old times. Good Luck and Hope it all works out.

Do the transition on his terms. The military life will have left a traumatic taste in his mouth and he will be feeling guilty on not being there for the 1st year of his babies life so just be loving and patient. Bless to you and yours

Stop being so tense and be good to him and stop contemplating things going to go wrong before he even gets home. If he's an easy going guy and very laid back that should be great!
Don't push him too hard..be good to him.

can you put the kids with your Mom (or his) for a few days so you can spend the time together (kind of like a mini honeymoon)???
that way he won't feel so overwhelmed with everything at once.
make him a favourite meal, then later cuddle, touch and play as much as he wants to. show him how happy you are that he's home.

Just talk to him. Obviously he is going to be used to his Military routine but be patient and give him time to get back into the swing of things. Try to make some alone time for yourselves to just talk and be with eachother if you can. Good luck!

Just take the time to get reacquainted. Things will return to normal. It just takes time. You two will be fine.

I’m not sure what you’re worried about – you saw him frequently and it sounds like you get along quite well. I’m sure things will be fine.
