Absolutely not!!! Girl, go!!! Enjoy!!! ❤️
Go go go !! Why not , you deserve a break. I’d love to do this if I had the support x
It depends on how old your baby is I guess? When our daughter was really little (less than a year, maybe like 10 or 11 months?) we stayed close by for our first romantic overnight. She ended up having a complete meltdown, gasping for breath screaming, and I came home for a bit to soothe her at like 3am. She was so relieved to see me she passed out as soon as I scooped her into my arms 🥺 Tiny littles don’t understand that you’ll come back, and that you’re not dead 😅 It was the most tragic thing, I’m never leaving a baby that young again. We went to Europe for a semester while our daughter was 5-9 months, traveling on weekends etc, and had also traveled to Colorado when she was 2 or 3 months. The younger they are, the easier it is to travel with them 😉 They just hang out in the carrier. That said, do whatever is best for your family and marriage 🫶🏼 but I’d just bring her if she’s a newborn… It’s not as easy as without, but might be easier than you think! 🤷🏻♀️
We’re going away for my partners 30th in January for 4 nights , lo will be 9 and a half months and she’ll be at my parents! She absolutely loves it there, and they both know her so well and her routine had some tested runs before hand, deffo still mum guilt of missing her but I know she’ll be fine! So enjoy!.
@Rosalie thank you for your thoughts ❤️
@Chloe reassuring - thank you so much!
I wish I had someone to stay even for an hour with my toddler while my husband and I do something together.. you are very lucky!! Not a bad mum, you deserve it. Enjoy yourself!
My husband and I take trips without our children. If you have the proper support, there’s nothing wrong with it. The people voting bad mom are probably jealous lol.
We did 5 nights in Morocco when baby was 5 months! He was fine and loved spending time with my mum and sister! Enjoy yourself :)
My favourite childhood memories were with my grandma. Enjoy your vaccay she’ll be having a blast!
We’re going away end of November for 3 nights, my brothers dad and step mum are minding him. They have him overnight every Sunday and I couldn’t trust them more than I already do. They’re absolutely amazing, have bottles, cot,pram, food and everything for him❤️
Have you tried a practice night? To get her used to it? Might put you both at ease whilst out the country. Knowing she will manage. X
@Linsey we did a day trip without her and honestly was more hard for me than her!!! She was very alert when I came home which was so cute! Defo will think about an overnight trip. Ty so much x

@Brittany ohhh 😂😂
@Frayere love that! Thank you!
I found when my son was young, he didn’t really show much preference for who looked after him as long as his needs were met. It is so hard to get quality time together when your kids are still young so I’m all for taking the opportunity while you can.
Unpopular opinion: I have never taken my kids on any trips that require a flight longer than an hour, max 2. It’s not enjoyable to me, nor would it be memorable to them as they were younger.
@Hannah love that!
We went away when my older two were babies. When we came back they were happy to see us, but really didn't mind because they had fun with their grandparents! Enjoy it while you can, before they get older and the guilt really hits 😂
