DH has planned a trip as a surprise for my birthday 😬😅 Lovely idea - he knows I’ve been desperate just to get away from the house having spent a whole pregnancy and most of Mat leave in some kind of lockdown.
My issue is, it’s usually me who plans our trips because DH is honestly TERRIBLE at it 🙈😅 he tries... really he does...puts in a lot of thought and effort to location, activities, etc but it never seems to work out. He always manages to book an accommodation that isn’t suitable (last time we turned up to a “self catering” place he’d booked having stopped on the way to buy a pretty luxurious food shop for the week to treat ourselves. Turned up to a gorgeous self contained suite in the grounds of a large hotel with a lounge, bedroom, bathroom etc...NO kitchen 🙈🤣 it wasn’t SC at all! We’d driven 4h and were there for the week 🙈) or double book activities or whatever, or not allow enough time for travel etc 😅 hes always so gutted with himself when something goes wrong but usually it’s just him and I and these things don’t matter - usually I’ll have a laugh about it and just enjoy our trip. We do always end up having a lovely time.
This will be our first trip with DS though 😬😅 DH tells me just to relax and pack for Thurs-Mon for me and 7m old DS and he has everything else under control 😅🤣
Would you be nervous too?! 🙈😅 Anyone got any pointers for first trip away with baby?
