Her second child was born also early, and we dropped the last session from the campaign, handling it through e-mail instead.  I advise ending at least a month before the birth, and doing one-shots or card games. Both time we ended the campaign that she and her husband were in, added a new player or two, and started a new game.  They took 6 months off then we returned to playing at their house.  When she got pregnant again she decided to stop gaming with the birth.  Her husband took off maybe a month, and returned to the table. When my wife gave birth I took 3 months off (on recommendation from ENworld.)  While the group switched to M&M.  I came back with a new campaign (4e) ready to run. My daughter is 4 months ATM, and we have shortened the session to 5 hrs so that us dads can get home earlier. My Wife Adds: Remember to celebrate the fact of  pregnancy with her instead of moving straight to how it effects the group.  She says she got tired/frustrated with peoples reacting based on how it would affect them.</blockquote>
