So with my DS I left him with my dad overnight for 2 nights @ approx 7 weeks. As we'd bookedband paid for a break away before being pregnant and it wasn't far away. I can't remember how I felt.

Anyway due a baby in a month and about 5 weeks after birth dp wants to go see a band. My dad is insistant on having the baby overnight.. As wouldn't be fair to pick up at 11pm..
None would ever force anything or be pushy so it's down to me and how I'd feel, I know the baby would be in the best hands etc etc. But something in my head is saying noooooo.

I don't know why though..

Mum moved in with us for first 3 months... was heaven. She's a fabulous cook and pampered me and the baby. All I had to do was sleep (recover from a horrible Csection) and feed the baby. She took care of us. After all I'm HER baby. DH loved having her there too. It meant I was very comfortable leaving my DD with her overnight from the beginning.
