Not ready to leave my baby yet

[leah167]

Hello
Just wondering at what age did you feel comfortable leaving your little Ines for the first time?
What tips do you have on getting used to the idea and preparing for it?
My little boy is 7 weeks old and dying to go out with my partner for a couple drinks but also feel massive guilt for leaving him and worried about leaving him!

At 4 weeks we went out for a really nice dinner in our local, although I was so tired that I was home in bed by 9. But it was lovely just to get out.
Then I had a couple of times I met up with girlfriends and then at 12 weeks went to a concert with my husband so got home about 11.

All completely fine and worth it.

Thank you all!
I've decided to go out out on Friday with my sister for a couple of drinks and leaving Nicholas at my mums for the night! A massive leap but there will be a lengthy list and will have my phone on me the whole time!
Definitely feeling nervous but also excited to get my going out clothes on and actually doing my hair and make for once! Think it's needed..better get some waterproof mascara because there will be tears leaving him I think.
Feel like the longer I leave it the worse it will get to leave him. Will be a one time thing and won't do it for a long time after but think it's time to make myself not resemble a troll and have some fun!
Thank you all so much for advice, appreciate it all!:D
