Am I being horrid to leave my 6 month old daughter to go on a hen doo?

Am going tomorrow, its in the UK but is 2 nights away.

I confirmed and paid for my place whilst I was 2 months pregnant, at that time a 6 month old baby sounded fairly grown up!!

My husband is brilliant with her (but has never had her for more than a couple of hours)

Will she miss me? Am I horrid to be leaving her? Feeling incredibly guilty already and she seems to have sensed this and has become unsettled ( I also think she is about to get a tooth, doesnt have any yet)

Hubby is saying that if it goes wrong or if I miss her he can always drive to me (4 hour drive), but its probably not the done thing on a girly weekend?

The hen is a good friend of mine and the weekend will be a rest, but just feel like maybe its unreasonable behaviour to go?

When ds1 was 4 minths old I went back to work, labouring under the illusion that he would miss me. Little fecker didn't miss me at all!
Go and enjoy yourself woman!

YANBU. Go and enjoy it. Everyone deserves a bit of a break. Wait until they are teenagers and beyond. How dare you enjoy yourself when I've got nothing great to do is the just of the guilt trip .
