The drop off is the hardest, but once you are there it gets easier. And just think how excited LO will be when you pick him up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1424248 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 11:36:38 +0000 Mommy Finger 1424248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no problem leaving him overnight with my parents and have done so several times. However, we'll be leaving him with my friend for 5 days/4 nights when we head down to Mexico for my brother's wedding. That will be rough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1423060 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 23:14:23 +0000 mrsjyw 1423060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HUGS!</p> <p>Have a great time!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1423026 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 23:01:12 +0000 wheres_c 1423026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hear you. LO is 14 mo and I have never left him overnight before. We're about to go away for 7 nights to the Caribbean, and we are leaving my LO at home (mom is going to stay at our house). I am soooo worried! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421850 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 18:53:30 +0000 skipper2010 1421850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I understand! It's not easy! I've had to leave DS overnight twice already and he's only 6 mo old. It helped that he was with my mom because I know he couldn't have been in better hands! My advice is to stay busy and enjoy yourself. It's not so hard if you stay distracted. You and your husband will have a fabulous time, and the baby snuggles will be even more amazing once you get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421815 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 18:35:26 +0000 .twist. 1421815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to do one night away (and MIL has offered) but I can't even bring myself to plan it. But I want it! But I don't want it.... </p> <p>Parenthood is so conflicting! </p> <p>I hope you have a great time, I totally understand. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421788 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 18:25:35 +0000 luckypenny 1421788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still always cry when I leave her (she's almost 2 and we've left her maybe 5 or 6 times) but at least now I am done by the time we get off the elevator :) it gets easier and you're going to have SO MUCH FUN! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421784 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 18:23:45 +0000 rachiecakes 1421784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I've left DH to go with girlfriends twice (DS is 2 now) and every time I RUN home the next morning, I miss my baby so much. I totally understand. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421781 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 18:22:41 +0000 chopsuey 1421781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awwww you're gonna have a great time!!

Is this your first overnight away? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-a-lo-overnight-is-just-really-really-hard#post-1421532 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 17:02:40 +0000 coopsmama 1421532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This weekend (well, actually 4 nights/5 days), DH and I are leaving our 8mo son with my parents so that we can go on a romantic getaway just the two of us. </p> <p>And now that this weekend is here, I really don't want to go.</p> <p>I know I'm pregnant and hormonal, but my mom just texted me asking if she could stop by and pick up some of the bigger items she'll need at their house (high chair, exersaucer, etc.) while he's there. </p> <p>And I'm CRYING about her picking up his stuff. :crying: And then laughing through my tears because it's kind of amusing -- I planned this trip, I was the one who wanted it, and I KNOW we need the time away to freshen up our relationship.</p> <p>But goodness. I do love that sweet boy of mine and I will miss him every minute I'm away. :heart: </p> <p>I just need to share that with some fellow mom's who will understand. DH doesn't get it! </p>
