Ok guys going on my first baby free week in TWO YEARS on Thursday. Ive been waiting sooo long for this week to come. For those of you who are raising a child with out the help of their father you can imagine my excitement. I have been with this little girlie 24/7 for two years with little to no help from anyone else only the help of my man whenever he can spare it but even then Im still there doing the primary looking after. This should be wonderful.
Im in need as of late for something like this, just recently came off my medication and with moving into a new place taking care of my nephew for now 9 12 hour days straight and once over night, my mind and my nerves need some break time, a time to re charge. Oh how I am looking forward to this.
Now on the same note, I am also kind of nervous. Ive never been with out her for more the half a day and last time I was without her over night was almost a year ago and even still, I put her to bed then am back in the morning before she wakes up. A WEEK I'll be leaving her this time and I find myself thinking sometimes maybe I should just bring her. I guess its a normal mother thing when they leave there child for this long for the first time and I know I would only regret it if I gave up my baby free time.
Also we have takin in a stray... Lol ok so my sister works with someone who recently went through a pretty nasty break up. Her parents live in another province so she had no were to go, and of course my sister thought I would be the perfect candidate for taking someone in. So now Ive had to move the baby's room into the play room so this girl can have a place to stay till she finds a place. I don't mind much though, I know the work she does and so I know when and what her paychecks are, It should not take her long to find a new place and shes a sweetie, plus she shares her pot
.
Anyway that's all the new news for today so I'll leave it at that.

In the best possible way.
It sounds like a break will be good for you. And I figure you're right that all mums have similar experiences when leaving their little ones for the first time for a while. Make the most of your rest.
