To ask how to reduce your mum guilt leaving your DC

[Sayhellotothethings]

I know this is ridiculous.

DD is 2 months old. I have left her with DH twice, once while I went to see a friend for a cup of tea and once while I went to a preloved baby sale. DH and I also went for a meal while DM and DF looked after her for 2 hours so we could celebrate a special occasion.
DH has down time a lot (goes and does things he enjoys like golf or cycling a few times a week, and has had an evening out), so I tell myself I deserve it, too. I am going to a dog event at the weekend and will be out for about 3 hours.
I have also planned a few hours with a friend around my birthday in a month.

I know it's so silly but I feel awful. I feel like I'm a terrible mother. She is with DH, who is an amazing hands on dad, and I know it's important that they spend time together without me as well. How do you overcome this sense of guilt?

It is important to have your own time so you can be a well balanced DM with interests.
You're are also provided Dad with bonding too.
I never had anyone take me and DS is s nightmare to leave with anyone we hardly anywhere as a couple alone, it is great for DC to see different people grandparents helping in their upbringing.
It takes a village
