to go away for 5 nights without kids?

[monkeyfacegrace]

Ok so its a silly one, but Im shitting myself.

I want to run away to Vegas to get married. Just me and DP. On our own. For the first time ever.

Kids are 4 & 2, and my mum and dad are happy to have them. It would be 5 nights, Mon-Fri. Tues and Weds they are at nursery, and Mn and Thurs the 4yr old is at pre school.

I dont physically think I can go and leave them for 5 nights.

Someone slap me with a wet fish please.

DO IT!!!! Deep breath and get on that plane!!!!

You can have a party when you come back and I assume that your parents will spoil look after your DCs very well while you are away.

Here comes a VERY BIG WET COD AROUND THE CHOPS!!!

Most I've done is 2 nights away, but dd is 16 months.

I'm sure your dc's will have a wonderful time with dgp's. You know it is you (and dp) that will be doing all the missing

Do it!

GO! You'll have an amazing time, and they'll have a great time with their grandparents.

Plus, when you go on hols without the kids, coming home is far less despressing as you get to come home to them!

Everyone's a winner

Do it!!

Dh and I went to Venice for four nights when ds was almost two. It was hard leaving him, until I had my first gin on the plane Mum loved having him, he was great and coming home was even better.

Besides, they will be thrilled you are married.

I know how you feel but when I went away I called my 2 year old who (at his nan's) told me he was too busy to talk to me!!

Go - have the best time ever. Its only 5 days and it will be very romantic. You only live once and CONGRATULATIONS!

Consider your face well and truly slapped!! Go and enjoy yourself -your children won't even remember it in the future but you can treasure the memories for ever x

YANBU - go for it - I am just a bit jealous though!

i have just been away for a week skiing and my ds is 3. trust me, they don't care and will only cry for all of 5 minutes until nana and grandad bribe them with goodies. Enjoy!!!

Go for it! Youre still a couple, not just Mum and Dad - why dont you felel you can leave them?

My Mum (RIP Mum) had my DS when he was 6 when DH and I got married and went on honeymoon for a week - we had a wonderful time and so did he - the stories and fun he had staying at his Nannies lol. Plus I talked to him on the phone when I was away.
