To leave 2 year old and 10 month old alone for a week?

[PrueHalliwell]

Well not alone obviously but with their grandma?

I'm 30 this month but on my birthday I'll be 38 weeks pregnant so that rules out anything exciting happening (unless I give birth! That'd be lovely)

So my husband has suggested we go for a week away next year to universal Florida as we both love it there ( we are big kids) but we don't think it'll be appropriate for a 2 year old and a 10 month old just yet plus would be nice to actually spend some time as a couple and I was really excited about it but now the mum guilt has started to creep in and I've started to feel really bad about leaving them.

My MIL has a good bond with my DS and DD isn't born yet but I'm sure they'll be okay - she's happy to look after them and they will be staying at our house with her and I'll know they'll be safe and have a good week but is it really selfish?

I just wanted to see what others thought before booking the holiday.

Thank you

Just an update to let this thread die

I've booked for us all to go (to Spain) because that's what felt right to me, I don't think it's wrong for people to go on breaks without their kids and stuff but I think for that week I would worry about them, miss them and I wouldn't really enjoy it so no point spending 5k plus to want to come home constantly so family holiday is booked!

Now if anyone has any tips about formula and holidays that would be great

Thanks again to everyone for the advice x

Have a fabulous time

Sounds lovely! I always thought a holiday with young ones would be abysmal so I avoided, I've since heard such lovely stories of people having a great time and I wish I'd tried it.

Hopefully someone can help you with practical suggestions and I hope you have a great time.

Formula - Order online for click and collect at boots at the airport (the one after security) so it isn’t included in your hold luggage.

enjoy your holiday 😊
