How old was your LO the first time your SO went away and you solo parented? I'm starting to get really nervous! Dh is going away to a wedding for three nights when C will be just shy of two months. And, I just realized she will be getting her two month shots the day he leaves! To make things worse, he just found out about a business trip he has to take leaving two days after he gets back (gets home Sunday night, leaves Tuesday afternoon). I have pretty much no idea what life with a freshly vaccinated two month old will be like but in thinking this is going to be tough!

My mom is probably going to come up for the weekend, so there's that, but that leaves a bunch of other days and nights of just me! How did you make it easier when you had to do it alone the first time?
