Just looking for opinions really..
I had my LG six weeks ago, I had a really rough pregnancy and birth. HG throughout and severe pre eclampsia with sepsis and a major blood loss thrown in the mix. I had several other issues during labour too. I’m just starting to feel better and back to my normal healthy self. My DM has suggested a mini break (2/3 nights) to Krakow, next month. My DM has had a rough time lately and split up with my step father who was an arsehole. My DH has offered to put 1 days holiday in so he can look after her the time I’m away. He’s going to a stag do next week too (this has been planned for ages) funnily enough to Krakow - I’ve always wanted to go but he’s never fancied Krakow- he didn’t really have a say in the stag do though! I’ve always wanted to see auschwitz, which again my DP unfortunately isn’t interested.
I’m obviously really tempted to go but can’t help feeling guilty already at the thought of leaving my beautiful baby for 2 or 3 nights. Me and my DH are planning on taking her away at the end of year (a short flight) something along the lines of Dublin or Paris etc when she’ll be around 7 months.
My DD is now formula fed after 4 weeks of EBF. It was so hard I just couldn’t continue. She’s a very relaxed baby who sleeps well (lucky so far!) and my DH is a fab dad so I’m not worried about him looking after her either. It’s just the guilt that I’m considering going away without her.
Has anyone else done this? Was it worth it?
