Please tell me this doesn't make me a bad mom...

I am having anxiety about not having time with my just my husband ever again for the rest of my life!!  We dont have the time or the money really to have a babymoon, even for a weekend.  I am very excited to have my baby and start this part of our lives but I just have anxiety about not being able to go away alone wtih my husband ever again!!  Someone please tell me it will be okay!!!!

  • I'm a FTM and I don't think there is anything wrong with the anxiety you are having. I have had moments like that as well, our entire life is going to change (yes for the better) but there is so much unknown as well and that adds to the anxiety.

  • I didn't take a babymoon before Hazel. After the baby comes home you won't care about going away with your husband, you'll want to go away with yourself! 
    i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.
  • I hope it's okay cause I feel the same way! You're not alone :) But I do plan on getting away with hubby alone lots of times after baby is here. That's what family is for.. free babysitting!

  • You are not alone! :)
  • We have a 5 1/2 year old daughter and still have plenty of time to ourselves.  She goes to bed at 8:00 on the dot so we have our evenings together just the two of us.  In fact, when she is gone for more than a night at her dad's house then DH and I are bored out of our minds!  Went downtown and had a fun dinner and New Years Eve Thunder game and the entire time we wished she was there just because she makes everything so fun!

    This...AND...my husband and I rarely ever have convos that don't revolve around our kiddo, even when we're out alone...and we don't care one bit. It's honestly WEIRD for us when she stays with my mom or his parents (well, not anymore) overnight.

  • Totally normal. H and I just talked about this last night. It's a big change!

  • Its okay to feel this way.  Before our son came, DH and I used to go on vacations a few times a year.  Now all we ever do is take DS to see his family in Ireland.  Yea, Ireland is nice and all but its cold and I want to go to the beach!  But yeah, I totally get it.  Come to think of it, I think its past time for DH and I to have a date night!

  • It will end up working out. We live far away (directions say 14 hours, but that's with no stops...realistically, it is more like a day and a half driving) from our family, but we are able to trade off with friends who also have children for date nights. Our DS has even slept over at his one friend's house (and his mom thought it was so much fun, she offered to take DS while I'm in the hospital delivering this LO) so DH and I could finally celebrate our anniversary a few months late.
