  • I think so! I am the same way...I have separation anxiety every time I leave him at daycare or with family for a few hours. Just the thought of being away overnight about puts me in tears! It just shows how much you LOVE your son. I cant begin to fathom how mothers can just up and leave all the time. My sister and brother in law are always leaving their kids with grandparents or babysitters so they can golf, party and have their own lives...and they are 37. I feel bad for the kids!
  • Very normal I had big break down when I went back to work after my daughter and she was with my hubby lol but I couldn't continue working. Thank God my hubbies job is good so I can stay home now. And I had to take her to day care for the fist time last month bc I had doc appointment and hubby was at work I couldn't wait to get her back, she did great but we both missed each other u could tell. It looked like we been apart for days. Next summer we want to go to Hawaii for our birthday my hubby and my birthday are 6 days part by then will have two girls I have no idea how I'm gonna do at least I trust my parents with anything :)
  • Oh trust me, i understand. When my baby was born i stayed at my mom's house for two weeks so she could help me out a little. Well one night, she offered to watch the baby overnight so that i could get some sleep. I really wanted to say no, but she insisted and i was exhausted so i gave in. No lie, i left him in her room at 10:30pm (down the hall from the room i was sleeping in) and by 1am i was back in her room trying to take him with me. I haven't left him anywhere ever since.
  • My daughter is 20 months old. And I can't leave her anywhere. If I leave her with her daddy to run to the store, I'm in a rush to get back too her. I have major separation anxiety with her. My biggest fear now is I'm 5 months pregnant and I tear up the thought that I will be in the hospital for 2 days and away at night from her. Like I literally start to cry when I think about that. I'm very guilty of our sleeping arrangements. She sleeps in my bed and I love it that way she is my snuggle bear :).

  • I have yet to leave her over night with anyone and she is 20m. Hubby and I are going away for a night next month for our anniversary and she is staying with my parents. I hope I do ok lol, I hope that since we are planning an eventful evening I won't have time to worry, plus knowing she is in good hands will help.
  • Thanks ladies it was hard to get throught the yime without him but hes home and i couldnt be more happier !
