Hi
My son is nearly two and although I went back to work when he was 6 months and find that fine, I hate being away from him over night.
I've only left him over night twice and only for one night at a time. Both times he stayed with family and both times I was up at 4am wanting to get home to him.
Now my work want me to go on a 5 day trip and I feel devastated. My husband does this quite frequently so I know that although my son misses him when he's gone, he is absolutely fine and it doesn't affect their relationship.
But I have never left him like that and he is very attached to me and me to him (more so I suspect!)
The thought of going makes me feel quite ill but is this something I just need to get over. Is it all in my head?
Help!
