back from first business trip as mom of 2

Funny how things change....

With DD I hated business trips. Worried about how it would work, how to pump, would she be ok, etc.

 This time....I focused on a night in hotel, room service, SLEEP, SLEEP, and oh, did I mention SLEEP. AND I read an entire chick lit book by the pool. And got to pee without a toddler coming in.

Pumping was completely easy, maybe because I'd done this so many times before.  But this trip was  a joy. Sure I missed them a ton and called home several times, but one night away from home was honestly a nice break rather than a struggle.

  • Welcome home!  Glad you found it enjoyable and relaxing!.  It is good to know b/c I'm dreading the first time I have to be away from DD, but I'm sure (like daycare and everything else) we'll get used to it.

  • Congrats on the successful business trip!! You sound so rejuvenated :)
  • LOL!!!  I hear you.  I came back from maternity leave this time and told my boss I was happy to attend a board meeting in Boston, whereas before I kind of dragged my feet about traveling.  The mere thought of room service and uninterrupted sleep had me totally giddy.
