Re: POLL: Spending the night away from DH
I can think of 20 or so just since Jane so....I guess quite a few. Wow, never thought about it.
(In the hospital before/after having her, J ran two marathons, he went to a frat reunion, I went to Mexico, I went away for work, etc etc)

This past year ( 2011) was probably the most we spent together since we've been married.
His latest work trip ( 6 weeks and counting) still isn't the longest time though.
m/c 7/17/10
Dx: MFI- 3% morph
IUIs: Gonal-F + Ovidrel + b2b IUI= BFNs
IVF with ICSI= BFP! EDD 11/25/11
3/18- Beta #1 452! 3/20- Beta #2 1,026!! 3/27- First u/s- TWINS!
Our twin boys arrived at 36w5d due to IUGR and a growth discordance
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
It doesn't happen that often since we don't really travel for work so I said a handful of times. The instances I can think of were bachelor/bachelorette parties, girl's weekends, my parent's house, etc.
He did go away for 4 weeks right around this time last year for work but that's really rare and definitely the longest time we've spent apart.
I don't really like it b/c I don't sleep well and I'm a very social person, so being alone in the evenings kill me. I would obviously get used to it if it happened more often though.
I said just a handful of times, but now that I think about it, it's been more than that.
DH went to San Diego for a week for the Rose Bowl a couple years ago; he had a golf outing for a couple days; he's going to Baltimore this week for a couple days, and he'll be in Chicago for a week in March. Everything other than the Rose Bowl was work related.
I'm a big baby and I hate it...every noise I hear throughout the night instantly becomes a murderer coming to get us. I'm really not looking forward to him going to Chicago in March--a week being a single parent of a toddler and an infant plus midterms is going to be tough. I don't know how single mamas, or those in the military do it.
I don't fall into the "all the time" category, but I feel like I need an answer more than "often."
When Sam does have to leave it's for weeks at a time. Right now we're in the middle of 6 weeks apart and it sucks. It also sucks that this time he's taking a class and he's really stressed out. I hate that I can't do anything to make it better for him!
But the countdown is on...we'll see him again a week from Thursday...and it can't come soon enough!
He usually has about 7-10 days worth of overnight trips throughout the year. I usually go away for a girl's weekend 2-4 weekends a year. So I would say it adds up to about 2-3 weeks a year that we spend the night away from each other.
