Oh okay. I just really hope for everything to go smoothly. This is really stressful
Comment by Navywife_Nuke on February 8, 2015 at 2:27am
No Problem. I am also pregnant, my due date is in June but I was still worried about everything until I heard from the other nuke wife.
Comment by Montana on February 8, 2015 at 2:25am
Thanks so much for telling me this. I'm so scared and anxious. I don't want my husband to miss the birth of his son. :(
Comment by Navywife_Nuke on February 8, 2015 at 2:17am
The first week they are the they have to go through a seminar thing on housing and then they get to come get us.
Comment by Navywife_Nuke on February 8, 2015 at 2:16am
Montana, I had all the same fears you did. I have talked to another nuke wife on Facebook. Her husband graduated boot camp on December 12, 2014, he flew to goose creek 12/13 and then was flown back to get her and their kids on 12/19 he had them professionally moved and they were in goose creek in a house by the 23rd. Then they had their stuff a month later. I got the same answers you did at first, that we wouldn't be moved down there. But don't worry you should be fine.
Comment by Montana on February 8, 2015 at 2:12am
Okay so I'm confused and kind of upset. My husband is ship 13 div 122. So, I don't understand why he wouldn't be able to stay with me at the hotel? That's crazy. And I was always told they got like 10 days or so after graduation of leave before they were to report to A school. My husband is a nuke and will be going to Charleston, SC (where I will be allowed to join) and I just found out today that I won't be able to go with him immediately which really bothers me because our vehicle is here in VA, and I am 7 months pregnant. Our first child is due exactly a month after his PIR of 3/27/15. So I'm kind of freaking out. I'm terrified I'm going to have to go into labor without him and he won't even have a way of getting to me in time. I want to know how long it'll take for me to be able to get down there with him. If I could rent an apartment for us down there so we could be together ASAP? If anyone could give me any info I'm pretty clueless and upset.
Comment by Navywife_Nuke on February 8, 2015 at 2:08am
So he gets to keep his phone and stuff? I know that we will be moving with him shortly after he gets there, so I am very excited for it to be March. :)
Comment by CatMom509 on February 8, 2015 at 2:05am

Navywife_Nuke,

If he is flying out to Goose Creek as his A school, he should be able to be with you at the Navy Lodge after PIR (from 10:30 am when they are release for liberty until when he is told he has to report back to RTC that evening).  Then you drive over to meet him at the airport in the early hours of the morning (1:00 am - 3:00 am) that he tells you to give him his cell phone, cell phone charger, laptop, ac adapter, own comfy underwear, maybe some favorite snacks from your area.

Re-posting scripture as I accidentally left out the reference;

     "For You are my hope, O Lord God,

      You are my trust from my youth."

                                          Psalm 71:5

Comment by CatMom509 on February 8, 2015 at 1:47am

Theresa711,

You should book via Southwest Airlines.  They fly into Midway and Mitchell in Milwaukee.  They have no change fees if you need to change plans (just the difference between ticket prices) and 2 bags fly for free.

The other airlines have refundable tickets and they are usually prohibitively expensive!!  I paid for my tickets about 6 weeks away from PIR after I was sure my Sailor daughter was not having any problems passing anything and I had the money available~~
