Im leaving my baby with his nan tomorrow for a few hours for the first time. i am so nervous i cant sleep! i dont know WHY im nervous she is brilliant with him! but i feel like im going to be sat at home twiddling my thumbs just missing him terribly! my biggest fear is that he’s going to get upset and i won’t be there to comfort him :( so the question is… what does everyone do with their time away from baby? my partner will be at work so its just me. alone. help? :)

PS good luck. It is hard the first time but I am sure that your little one will have a blast. They will also be very excited to see you when you pick them up!

My mum was brilliant with my son.

Relax, and take a break for yourself. So important.

You will be refreshed and ready to go back with what you need to do.

Never feel guilty when people give you a break from motherhood.

Screen time and lots of chocolate and crisps. All the things I don't allow my child!

Usually catch up on housework, sit and drink a cup of tea uninterrupted, scroll social media and get lost in reels then realise the time and wish I'd have spent it doing more productive things! Call at the supermarket and just browse without being on high alert constantly. Take a nice long bath. Bliss.
