How old was your LO on your first night away?

    @grizz: your mom sounds awesome!! You should totally go and do your very best to relax and get a good night's rest (and enjoy your show)!

    My LO was 7 months when I first left him overnight with DH but it wasn't until he was 22 months that we both left him overnight and my MIL watched him. He always sleeps super well for other people...so maybe your LO will do the same!

    Still haven't at 13 months; the idea doesn't freak me out but I'm not seeking it out, either

    LO was 2 months when my cousin had a fancy ladies only birthday weekend at our local Gaylord hotel so my DH insisted that I take a break away from being a SAHM while he was in charge. I was gone from Sat morn to Sunday evening. It was fun but I really missed my LO and could not sleep at all. I was still on her midnight feeding schedule.

    DD was almost 21 months old when I left her overnight (to have DS). DH went home after DS was born.

    I'm going on a momcation in May..! Nervous, but looking forward to it!

    Such a thoughtful hubby! We just left J for the first time two weekends ago at 7 months.

    PS I second the suggestion to take something to sleep! When we went on our night away I couldn't sleep all night! Get some OTC unisom so you can get the sleep you desperately need!

    @grizz: LO is 20 months we haven't left her overnight with anyone yet. Most likely the first time we do it she will be 2 years old

    I left LO with my husband overnight at 5 mos. for a business trip and for a couple date nights/weddings, my parents put her down to sleep and we slept at their house so we were there when she woke up.

    I think you should go! I was nervous the first overnight away and though I had a hard time falling asleep, once I was out, I slept so soundly I almost missed my alarm! Also-what a great husband! Enjoy the show!

    Hasn't happened yet at almost 9 months but it's bc she's ebf and won't take a bottle, and isn't sttn anymore

    We are hoping to go away overnight for our anniversary in May when she's 13 months.
