Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

weekend without dc = not excited :(

my mom likes to take little g for the weekend every few months. in the past, it's been great, because it's come at a time when i really needed a break. but lately, he has been so fun and cuddly and amazing that i've been sad in the mornings when i drop him off at daycare. i LOVE our weekends together, and i'm so reluctant to give one up... even though it would mean going out with dh at night and sleeping past 5:30 in the morning.

i can't get myself over this!

but i should, right? i mean, it's good and healthy to spend time apart, right? ugh.

  • I know how you feel.  I have daycare mama guilt and hate to miss any weekends with DD.  I agree it's nice to have time alone with DH, too.  Can you compromise and let her take DS just for one day or one morning?

  • I am the same way.  If you aren't feeling it this time then just say that you would like to keep your weekend time together.  I am very selfish about my time with dd since she goes to day care 5 days a week.

    This is me too.

    At the most I'd compromise and plan an outing or something all together.  But, I cherish the weekends now more than I ever did before, no way would I willingly give up my weekend time w/DD!
