Mozhe IS NOT going back to work next week after all......

[mozhe]

.....no, have decided to delay it by a week or so......Mr Mozhe is on 'incubator watching' duties....P-in-L's are manning the home front,( and DSsX3...), with nice new aupair....and Mozhe,Nanny and DTs are off to St Barts,( in lovely Carribean...),for a week's sun/swim/chill out !!
Any one been before ? Any pointers ? Off first thing tomorrow......

I'm sure everyone in your situation feels they need a holiday. What happens if (I really hope this doesn't happen) your baby rapidly gets ill, will you ever be able to forgive yourself for not being there?

lol

glad your newone is well enough for you to leave him. Am sure mr Mozhe will do a great job.

Personally I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than leave a poorly child for a week, but agree that you have to think about your DTs and obviously they will be NEEDING a week in st barts

apologies for thinly veiled jealousy

DVT is a small risk....but will be able to walk around in commodious cabin,( it is a nice present from P-in-L's....the flight..), and will take aspirin too...

I think that's the point - we're all different and Mozhe needs a holiday - so I hope she has a great time.

why does she need a holiday?

She has given birth - big whup.

Just GO TO BED for a few days

did I miss the post where Mozhe asked to be talked out of her holiday rather than if anyone had been to St barts?

Enid!! She's had/having a really stressful time and we all react differently. If a holiday's the right thing it's the right thing and if she felt it was wrong she wouldn't be going!

Good to hear baby is well enough to be left in the no-doubt capable hands of Mr Mozhe. And be DSx3 wil love spending time with grandparents. Will be fab for DTs to have some 2:1 time with mummy, I'm sure.

Don't get why anyone else is criticising you, tbh, they don't know your kids and the way your family works.

Kew!!

Ok, fair play, your life your choices, if you want to leave your poorly newborn in SCBU and all that, could you not found a destination closer to home? Do they not have sun sea, sand and coctails in Italy, or Madeira?

And what about your newborn? Is he too young to miss him mum? Too young to be comforted by the familiar smells and sounds of mum?

I think I need to leave work early and get DS2 a great big cuddle.

AWEN et al....people are different, that is true.
I would not leave him if his father could not be with him. His father can so I feel he will be well looked after. I can stay in touch with developments easily.
True things could go wrong,( but my being there will not prevent that ),but over 2 weeks in...nothing has so I,( and his doctors ), feel it is unlikely it will now...but obviously you cannot never be sure.
DTs do not need St Barts...I do !!!

snort at big whup.

you are obviosuly barking

i hope you dont relax at all

why do you HAVE kids?

Do you know, it's threads like this that really wind me up. We're such horrible cows to each other sometimes...

Cod!!!!!!!

Stepping away from the thread....

well she must be intterly unhingedd

WHAT a nutter. HOW could you leave a tiny, ill, preemie new baby and bugger off to the other side of teh world for a week for a beach holiday?

not sure i could have a relaxing holiday while my very premature baby was in an incubater. ah well, each to their own. i guess you enjoy the sort of reactions you get to these sorts of threads.

Blimey O riley!

Each to their own Mozhe and I'm sure St Barts will be fab but I have to agree with Cod,
you are barking woman!

WHY does he have kids and spends her life runign away fomr them
wihte rto work or to the carri farkign bean
