My best friend bought me a weekend trip to Spain with her for my birthday last September when DD was 5 months old. At the time, I was reluctant to go as I was worried about leaving DD. She rather talked me into it, and said I would feel much more confident by the time the weekend came.
Well, I am due to go in 2 weeks' time and am still feeling rather apprehensive. DH has got the time off work and thinks it would be good for me to have a break but my mother has had a go at me and wonders what kind of mother leaves her child to go away for a weekend. I am not worried about DD from her point of view as I know she will have a great time with DH (and has stayed with him many times when I have been out or at work) but I have never left her overnight and feel worried that I will miss her too much.
So, in the words of the Clash, should I stay or should I go? Any advice gratefully received.
Thank you.
