Hi! I had a baby 5 months ago and I’m now trying to get out. My husband is a 15u in the Army and it’s too much for us. Could I get out through Chapter 8?

Based on my reading of AR 135-178, I do not believe so. However, this should be a conversation between your primary care provider and your commander.

If you read chapter 8 it says you must be pregnant and it must be done before the child is born

Chapter 5-8 - (Involuntary Separation Due to Parenthood) may be the better option -- read up on it with your husband and then go to your chain of command -- Good Luck
