my LO is 6 weeks old and is EBF. She has taken pumped bottles and gone back to the breast so far with no problems. A few weeks ago I asked DHs parents to watch her overnight this weekend since it's our anniversary but now I'm having second thoughts. It's not that I don't trust them- I definitely do, I'm just not sure I'M ready. Im sure she'll take bottles fine. We've got enough frozen milk stashed (though it'll put a good dent in it) and I'd definitely pump throughout the time I'm without her. The thought of a few drinks, private time with my husband, and some uninterrupted sleep sounds so nice... But I'm worried I'll ruin it by being emotional. What's everyone think?
ETA I go back to work next Saturday anyway and I work overnight. I suppose it's worth seeing how she and I do apart overnight.
Re: Overnight with grandparents?
My LO (almost 6 weeks) & I are definitely not ready for being apart overnight
At the same time it was really nice to reconnect and have some uninterrupted us time. I'd give it a go. You might miss your little one like crazy but it's only one night. Could be worth it
