[newmummy27]

Hi
I have been seperated from dh for 9months now and feeling quite low as have been in limbo so long. i would like to take ds away for mid week break poss 2 nights, just wondering if any other singleparents out there have any recommendations for family friendly hotel i was thinking perhaps going to edinburgh zoo? of course,it cannot be somewhere too expensive!can anyone help?

That sounds like a fantastic idea. Sorry, I don't know Edinburgh area, so can't make any recommendations.
Just posting to say - remember to pack some treats for yourself to enjoy in the evening when you are stuck in the hotel room with your toddler Perhaps a book you've been saving, chocolate, or indulgent drink of choice and snacks if you think you'll be able to get away with sitting and enjoying a film on TV.

Have a fantastic time.

aw thanks piprabbit, i will, i am excited to go away and get a change of scenery if nothing else! i am finding it tough.. :-(

Oooh, how about face mask, manicure etc. Stuff you probably wouldn't do because you seond your evenings catching up on housework.

Sounds like you really need a break - and as you say and change of scene can give you a real boost.

one thing i found was that dc (not a toddler) couldn't sleep with me in the hotel room! so some very quiet activities you can do while your dc is settling might be an idea to bring

oh, and have a great time
