Since none of the dumb women here are doctors, WebMD says don’t travel by air at 36 weeks plus, which she would be. And it says stay within 300 miles of home for your whole third trimester “in case of sudden changes that need medical attention.” A 2.5 hour flight is way more than 300 miles. It takes 2 hours to get from Chicago to Boston. Or 2.5 to 3 from Dallas to Boston.
I think it’s *reasonable* to say that those guidelines are given to pregnant women by doctors, and that they exist for good reasons that would extend to their male partners for the purposes of being around.
Yes, you should have stopped responding after the first time. That was extremely rude. I get you were trying to be understanding, but this guy is over. Delete.
Not that it matters much, but after the first time he stood you up, did he get in touch very quickly after that, apologize, and propose a new date and time? That may have been acceptable to give him the benefit of the doubt. But no, not really. He had his phone and could have texted you about a “family emergency” before you got to the bar.
Yeah, so let’s say she goes into labor at 2am Saturday morning. AND you have your phone on and it wakes you up. You are able to get on the earliest flight back, which is 6am. 4 hours have gone by when you take off. You land at 8:30, get to the hospital at 9:30. Almost 8 hours have gone by that she’s been in labor. Baby may already be there.
