Home alone

No sadly not, many of my friends have their own kids or are away this weekend and we don’t live near any family.
I have always had issues at night being alone even when I lived alone. My husband works overnights so he only home 2 nights. We have security cameras on house and strong locks on front door. I know you can't necessarily do all that now but it does help some piece of mind. Otherwise I just breath, can always leave lights on in house, maybe baseball bat near you to help you feel like you can defend yourself and baby. Could put furniture in the way of doors or windows make it harder to get in if anyone were to try. I have slept with bathroom light on before also. I always just make sure everything locked up before I go to bed also.
If your friends can't come to you, go to them. Take the pack and play and have a slumber party at their house. It's sort of a lot, but it's also fun!
I used to be that way. My husband worked nights our entire relationship up til I had our baby. What helped me was a nightlight and sleeping with his blanket so I had his scent. It took a bit of time to sleep without a light and even now and then I have nights where I have anxiety when he isn’t home I wish I could help more. It’s definitely not an easy thing to cope with and I wish you the best 🫶🏻
Do you have anyone who can come over or can you go to a friend or family’s house until your husband gets back?
