I booked a weekend away for DP & I a while ago. DD will be 7 months old, she’s breastfed & I’ve only been away from her once for around 12 hours, where I left her with DP and she was fine.
She’s 4 months old at the moment & whilst I’ve been looking forward to it, as it’s getting closer I’m starting to dread being away from her. She’s very cautious around anyone who is not me or DP & often works herself up crying if either of our families even try to interact with her.
I could really do with getting away and I’ve paid quite a bit but the thought of her being unsettled has left me feeling it would be selfish of me to go. We’d be leaving around lunchtime on the Friday & returning on the Sunday afternoon, it’s a 3 hour drive each way.
I’m could change the dates, although I’d have to pay an additional £300 I believe. I’m not even sure if she’d be a bit more settled in 3 months time & on solids too. I think if I knew that she was happy being looked after, I’d be able to relax myself.
Would you go in these circumstances?
