OMG you have to be kidding right ? You are going to leave you very prem baby in SCBU to go off on holiday ?

I would so hate to be the type of person that could do that and not give a shit.

My Dd2 was in SCBU for 2 weeks, and I cried when I had to leave her there and go home, which was only about 20 min away, and she wasn;t even ill, or very prem.

I even felt bad the one night when we popped into a pub for something to eat on the way home from visiting her, it just felt wrong.

I agree with everyone who has said, what on earth is the point of you having kids if you are going to do that.

I would describe mothers who want to be in the same country as their 2 week old prem baby as emotionally continent (no pun intended)

Why can't you lot just accept that people are different?

CountessDracula · 16/07/2007 17:37

because mn would be very very dull

imagine

Poster 1:Oh I have decided to bottle feed my baby with my dog's milk

Poster 2: Well, that's a bit different but I accept that everyone has their own ideas

Poster 3: Personally I wouldn't but hey, live and let live

zzzzzzzzzz

"I think all of us are a bit shocked about how little YOU will miss HIM"

Haven't read the entire thread - too long...just up to that quote early on.......well that must make me a terrible person too - as I've never had any issues about 'missing' my children (either as babies, toddlers or primary school aged) when we've been apart for a day (or more)......go on - shoot me now (then I won't have to go to the rehearsal at church tonight - with all 3 children in tow ).

beansprout · 16/07/2007 17:45

I don't pine for ds on the days I am at work but that's not the same as going off on holiday when your premature baby is in the SCBU.

CoypuNot · 16/07/2007 17:49

but a week in the carribean with child in scbu
if you thr birth announcement threads they seem very unemotional - almost dead pan

MamaMaiasaura · 16/07/2007 18:06

Eric - If i thought for a second she was real I wouldnt have said it. Fact is, I think it is all bolleuax (french styleee)

Don't bother with crocs - you'll get sand all over your toes. Just take t-shirts and 3 or 4 sarongs.

Cammelia · 16/07/2007 18:11

Take shirts which open as you're still b/f'ng the dts

TootyFrooty · 16/07/2007 18:13

Good point Cammelia.

saggermakersknockturnalley · 16/07/2007 18:17

It's not something I would do. It's too far, the door of the ward was too far for me.

But I would just say that when you have a sick child you do sometimes keep them at arms length - don't get attached 'just in case' . Maybe mozhe is doing that, maybe consciously, maybe not. Sometimes it's the only way to stay sane.
