I feel a little like a bad mom
I am leaving for Atlantic City tomorrow AM and will be back Saturday night. The thing is, I'm going with my girlfriends and leaving DH and DS at home. One part of me is so excited. I know I'm going to have an absolutely AMAZING time with my friends, but I feel a little guilty leaving. I know they'll be fine but I feel like I'm abandoning them.

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
You are so NOT a bad mom! You need some mommy time to re-energize and help you be a happy mommy. Enjoy yourself and give the boys some bonding time!
I am jealous I need a girls trip!
Have so much fun!

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
Enjoy it!! Too many times you are held down because DH is out and about on the town. Do something fun and don't worry about it - you deserve it!

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
GO GO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You definitely will feel guilty (that's normal) but you need you time.
Be prepared for 100 calls from your DH! LOL
Have a great time, drink, have fun and get some sleep!

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
Enjoy it, you deserve it. I was also reading a book that said its a GREAT idea to leave DC home w/ your DH every so often so he is able to bond w/ the child & see what is entailed in caring for that child 24/7....

I wouldn't even mind the phone calls, but I know my DH... he won't ask me for any help. If he doesn't know how to do something, he'll wing it. I'm sure Luca's schedule will be all over the place when I get back.
And as far as sleeping, my friends know not to wake me unless they have a death wish.

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
I went with the girls in my family to Mohegan Sun when the boys were 4 months old and I left DH with them the whole weekend. I didn't feel bad at all........after 3 months of not one good night of sleep i slept like a baby there. My DH was tired when i got back but still did an amazing job with them. So enjoy yourself.....

Re: I feel a little like a bad mom
At this point, I just can't wait to go already. My friends were supposed to pick me up at Grand Central at 10:04. I rushed around like a maniac getting everything ready this morning, caught the train on time, and then find out they they wanted to leave at 11:30.  It would have been nice if they let me know that last night- especially considering I'm the only one with a baby. So now I had to take a cab from GCT to my friends apt. and I'm sitting here waiting for them to get ready. I could have spent more time with my son.
