It's pretty rare for me to be away from LO since I'm a SAHM. I do have a weekly date night so we're apart for about an hour or two. And once a month I try to get a massage, so that's another hour. Now I'm going to start doing aqua zumba once a week so again I'll be apart from her, but it's only an hour and a half of her awake time.

I'm away from LO about 9 hours a day, sometimes more, depends on how busy I am at work. I'm a WOHM.

@littlek: me too
During the work week I'm away from 7:30 to 5:30, but on the weekends, it's rare that I go out with DS.
-
When he's in school, about 6 hours a day. He also goes to his dad's house every other weekend from 6 pm Friday til 6 pm Sunday.
Now he's out of school, he'll go to my mom's for a bit now and then, but we're together most of the time. (Except for his dad's weekends)
-
M-F from 8-5:30 while I'm at work, then the occasional evening when I'm running errands solo. I try to plan my gym trips during her naps on the weekends so I don't miss any snuggle time though.
-
I'm away from him all the time because I'm a WOHM! I leave the house around 7:00 a.m. and then pick him up from daycare at 5:00 p.m. So that's 10 hours a day. Then I usually go grocery shopping on the weekend, so that's another hour. And every three weeks, I get a pedi, so that's another hour! I definitely don't get to spend enough time with my little guy.

Almost never. I'm a SAHM so I'm with them all day. My SO and I were doing regular date nights but they've been put on pause for now because his dad works all the time and my mom broke her leg, so no sitter. I want/need to send sometime alone, just for myself, but I'm trying to figure out just how I want to send time alone. Haha.

I'm a SAHM but I do have some time away from her. My parents and MIL each come over once a week for a few hours so that I can get out to do some errands, etc. I also have nighttime meetings from time to time for my Jr. League and other commitments. My husband and I try to do social things on the weekends too at least once or twice a month.
-
Um, never, lol. I'm away from the kids maybe a few hours a month. I don't mind, though.
-
A lot. I'm a WOHM, plus my parents live close and they love LO and he adores them, so between them and my sister we have a lot of good free babysitting options
Plus it's pretty common for either me or DH to take LO out without the other partner for a few hours on the weekends. -
Now that I work from home full time, LO only goes to daycare M, W, F from about 9am-5pm, so I'm away from her then. If I have a lot of work to do on a T/TH, my mom will come and take her for a few hours so I can work. Then my parents take LO every other Friday overnight so my husband and I can have a date night/night off!

Rarely, my oldest went to preschool this past year so that was three days a week but the others were a home with me. I have a moms group that meets every other week for a few hours. They provide child care. We go out occasionally but usually we do in home date nights when they have gone to bed.
-
I'm away from him M-F 6:20am - 4:40 pm.
Wow, that's over 10 hours. Rarely away from him on the weekends unless DH and I go on a date.
-
Almost never. One or two hours weekly sounds soooo nice to me! I'm actually thinking about putting her in daycare part time once she's able to run. It's really close-by and the socialization for her would be great. I'm not gonna lie, some alone time would be kind of nice too.

10 hours a day on during the work week! 8 AM - 6 PM. I try to limit our time apart on weekends!
