And since someone will want to go there: what if Dad has a job? That requires him to take business trips? That are more than 300 miles away? Should he not travel at all during Mom’s third trimester? I’d say it depends. We all know how awesome US companies are with being flexible for dads. So maybe he still has to travel but can cut it down to what’s absolutely necessary. And Mom may be worried and stressed when he’s away. After she’s 36 weeks, I think there would be a good case for him to tell work he can’t be out of town. If she had a complicated pregnancy, or had one last time, then definitely, no work travel. That’s reasonable.
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.
Ok, no hard feelings, I’ll keep deleting the cunty comments pro bono.
No, sorry, that was directed toward Baccalieu. A while back he wouldn’t stop asking for my opinion on a certain topic personal to him, and I said I’d give it if he donated to one of Wendy’s listed charities. He declined.
Fyodor, I’ll delete you for concern trolling. Hah. Don’t worry about me.
For the record, some woman called you a cunt a couple months ago and I deleted it and got called a cunt too. I’ll leave it next time.
Yep. He was super rude. Not serious about dating. Next!
Right. Up to 4-6 weeks out, she’s not being unreasonable. Asked and answered. If Tom needed a medical opinion he could ask their OB-GYN.
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.
I offered you something you asked for in exchange for a charitable donation to a human rights organization. That’s pro bono work.
I know what! Let’s get into a long discussion about mathematical odds. I wish an actuary would weigh in!!! Anyone here an actuary?
Probably 4 weeks. Ladies?
Totally understandable!
