I’ve left my two year old for the first time for an overnight stay with his dad (we are separated and he is a brilliant dad) but apart from newborn stage I have always done the night settling. Our child does sleep through now but occasionally will wake in the night if teething. I feel absolutely awful right now I’m crying as I type, my chest feels tight and heavy with anxiety and I just feel so irrationally worried. I had a very traumatic birth which still affects me abit now and I’m wondering is this why I feel so awful being separated from my child or have other mums ever felt like this ?! I feel very silly but I can’t help the way I’m feeling and it is not relaxing one bit !
