2 weeks left to DB

I think it's important to remember that the contract does NOT mean you guys are over. It means that you are being smart without divorce. That's my opinion, anyway.

Yes! This is what WH and I did over a year ago...originally we were planning on D but the informal contract has helped time and time again without D in place!

And I also agree that saving some of this stuff for face to face AFTER the birth would be great...even for me, it became a major wake up call and reality when S was in this world and out of the womb! It definitely made WH realize his idea of seeing him 2-3 times a week for a couple hours each was not enough! But now I would have used that to help him see what he is missing. I know it sounds like I would be "using" S and that is exactly why I couldn't do it back then(one of the reasons at least). Someone tried to explain that it was a short term sacrifice for a possible long term success but I just couldn't limit WH's time with S!
