Alone time..what's that??

CandLind

The last time DH and I went out alone without our kid was in December, we are in desperate need of a date! We've only been out 2 times alone since having DS.

How often do you girls get out without the babe?

I am pretty sure we have only had two dates since Carson was born. DH goes out all the time without Carson, as in hunting, menards, gun show today.. I have gone out a few times...to Walmart-once, twice to Bunco, and twice for a girls night. My next night

The last time was my bday in, Oct. We're definitely in need of one as well. Hopefully soon. Hubs needs it more than i.

We've only been out once for lunch since V was born. DS2 has spent the night with Grandparents a couple times and sometimes she harder than a baby. So that was a nice break too.

Yep, we have only been out a few times without DD.  Twice to movies when my parents have visited, and once a couple months ago we hired a babysitter and went to dinner with friends.  She goes to daycare while we're at work full time, and she's a

We are able to go out every Friday. My ILs live down the street from us and are so eager to spend time with D. H and I found that it is really good for us to check in and spend time together at the end of the week.

DH and I got out once a month on a date. And I will usually have at least one or two girls nights/outings a month. So important to make time for DH and I and then me time as well.

Its been almost 2yrs..... Crazy lol. But... my DH works OOT so when he is home we want to spend it together as a family.

We've been out about 5 times since LOs been born, but they've all been "occasions" like weddings or birthdays. I get really bad anxiety being out without him so sometimes it's not even worth it, I think it's because I feel bad that I leave him when I'm at

At least once a month. More than that if family is visiting. I think we've had a grandparent come stay with us like 5 out of her 7 months. So yeah, we've been out a lot. I love being with DD all day, but time alone is vital.

We were kind I'd home bodies before so having a LO has not made us any more social. I think we have been out twice since Evie was born and both times were to parties at friend's houses. In our defense we have two other girls in school so our schedules are

We've been out once by ourselves and not for long since we were anxious to get home! We have alone time every night though, especially since DS goes to bed so early. We're able to eat dinner together and watch some TV or a movie. My family lives 2 hour

Um.... A lot. Is that bad? The baby goes to bed early. We put him down and go out to dinner, I'd say 2 to 3 times a month.

DH is good about watching the boys on the weekend so I can get stuff done in peace or grab lunch with a friend.

We went out in October, November, January and February. We are due but I'm not sure when it will be. Normally we so DH's bday in April but we are having a big party at the house. Sometimes we do Mother's Day but I want all my kids with me and don't want m

Um never. L has never had a bottle and my parents are the only people I would feel comfortable leaving her with for the first time. And they don't live near by. I have only been away from her for a couple of hours to run an errand or something.

We just started trying to do a twice a month date night at my counselor's recommendation. So far we have just gone to dinner each time, but I don't think our budget can handle that long term, so we need to find some free things to do. This summer we shoul
