Dealing with Deployment, Two Kids & Pregnancy

For more check out: www.millionstories.com/
For many couples, dealing with deployment means dealing with new financial struggles. In this episode of Milk Money, we explore how military deployment affects families, and how the partner at home is faced with unique challenges along the way. Specifically, we learn all about how Molly navigates motherhood, her kids, and her pregnancy while her husband, Marine Corp. pilot Pat, is away.
Military family stories like Molly’s showcase the resilience and determination people can have in the face of difficulties. After saying heartfelt goodbyes and many tears, Molly became the primary caretaker of their two-soon to be three-children, but she doesn’t feel alone. Molly believes that being a military spouse has given her strength she never knew and empowers her to create her own community. Whether it’s giving birth while her husband is overseas or working at her job as an occupational therapist, this family takes dealing with deployment one day at a time.

[@JPark118]

Wow, it’s amazing how you survived with 2 littles while you were being prego. I have 2 littles and my husband has been gone for the most part of my first one’s first 4 years her life, and it was super hard for me. I mean, I have no friends and family where we are staying, so it was especially harder, but I think the hardest part is the physically feeling exhausted. I’m glad you had your nanny. Maybe that’s what i need for my kids lol

[@cecilialopez1001]

She seems like a caring wonderful mother her kids are so adorable awe

[@vancelubben5300]

Ya, especially when the military humor has always centered on being told Jody got your girl. Lmao

[@4703marinita]

I’m in your exact position right now pregnant with my third and husband deployed but (only based on watching you in this video) you seem to be doing….a bit better than me lol. You seem so strong and dealing with the circumstances in such a healthy and strong way.

[@cecilialopez1001]

Awe I feel so bad God bless you mama Ik the feeling 😢

[@luisrodriguez3838]

I dont understand how people make choices .. then cry about their decisions..

[@Whydoweneedhandlesagain]

Because being an adult is all about making hard decisions. We’re people and we have emotions. These emotions sometimes conflict with our decisions. Stop being an asshole.

[@maileevyne5000]

How does she do it. 😢

[@fairytaleslearningcenter1721]

You are a strong person

[@chromxrobinandcorrinxcamil9031]

I’m sorry.

[@sierrastanley3109]

This is why you don't date when in the military. The lack of presence is there for both spouses and children and it leads to attachment issues or a sense of neglect emotionally. Also, there is a higher cheating rate when a spouse is deployed while in the military.

[@choasisgoated]

The commitment is 11 year you can’t wait that long

[@CC-nh6gt]

It's a tough life and not for everyone. You have to be smart, resourceful and independent to handle being a military spouse.

[@commycasty]

I've had a lot of military friends and family and they also say that men in the military often cheat using dating apps etc.

[@BauchNessMonster]

Nah cheaters will cheat wether near or far … military is not the only job that requires distance in marriage / family it’s part of the deal when you take vows either take them serious or don’t get married It’s like a woman dating an alcoholic the she becomes a wife complaining that her husband is an alcoholic Of you know your man is in the military or oil field or railroad or pilot etc and you can’t handle distance don’t get married and if you do don’t complain about it

[@choasisgoated]
