Really nervous about this. Ds (21wo) is a lovely calm baby, but has gone berserk the last couple of times I left him with anyone else for longer than 1/2 hr. he intently follows me around with his eyes as I move about the house, as if he's afraid I'm going to bolt for the door!
I'm supposed to be going back to work 4 full days a week in 5 weeks time. Paternal grandmother I'd found childcare (god love her), but I just can't imagine how he'll cope with it initially.
I'm supposed to be going out for a couple of hours tonight, over bedtime. I'm nervous that he'll cry and miss me, and dp will get anxious and bedtime will be a disaster.
Please tell me to get a grip, and reassure me that ds will get used to being without me please also verbally slap me round the face, and insist that I don't cancel tonight!!
