AIBU, ex wants to take the baby away for a week

My immediate thought is no. She's 16 months, still breastfed (but only once a day at night to get to sleep). He is perfectly capable of looking after her fine and she sleeps well at his house without a feed.

But all my instincts are saying no, she is too young to be away from her mother and siblings for a week.

Is that reasonable?

Good on you OP. She'll be fine. Get your ex to send you lots of picture messages so you know what she's been up to. I like the idea of packing a t shirt smelling of you too.

Well done on saying yes.

She will be fine Smile

I would build up with a shorter break before the whole week if possible.

I think that's a bit too young to stay away from mum so long, esp if bf.
