Those with 2 or more kids. How old was the littlest the first time you left them for a date night?
How was his/her sleep?
Did you leave them with a sitter or family member? One or two persons?

We just did this last week when DD2 was 11 weeks. Both girls were still awake when we got home, 1.5 hrs past their bedtime, but that was expected because 1) DD1 fights sleep, especially bestie and 2) DD2 didn't nap much all day, which means she had an overtired meltdown before finally being able to fall asleep.

we went on a date afternoon around three months. that way no one else had to attempt bedtime (it can be pretty hairy). my mom watched them.

It was 6 weeks PP and both LOs were sleeping well. MIL put them down and they were still asleep when we got home 3+ hours later.

Hmmmm I don't remember how old the second one was. I'm thinking 2 or 3 months. In the beginning her sleep was good. I'm thinking it was my IL's who watched them, or my mom. Not sure.

I think when DD2 was three weeks old. Then I went out with gifriends when she was four weeks old.
We live decently close to downtown and lots of restaurants so I did not hesitate to leave the girls, because if they needed us it would take 15 minutes max to get home.

LO #2 was between 3 and 4 weeks old! We left them with my mom and dad at our house. We did most of the bedtime routine (bath, PJs, etc) and they just had to put them to sleep. It went well! We had no issues. I nursed DD right before we left and we did dinner and a movie. I left a small bottle for her and she ate it and was ready to nurse when we got home.
