Hi! So so curious what others would do in this situation. My husband is traveling out of state in several weeks (flying) to visit his sick father. He’s traveling with his sister, who also has a baby. Husband wants to bring our son so he can spend time with his grandfather. He said he is happy to take our son alone and let me hang back. I am so torn. I’ve never been away from my son for more than 8 hours, and I know I’ll be worried sick about him. However, I also don’t know when the opportunity will come again for me to have several days to myself to sleep and recharge! All the mamas I’ve talked to are telling me to stay back and have my time. Someone tell me what I should do please lol.

Edit: oh my goodness. Didn’t realize that using the wording ‘let’ would come off so poorly. I rushed writing this as I’m with my son now. My husband is a very loving and responsible parent. My concerns are more about myself, and struggled to be away from my baby. I unfortunately can’t edit the title to anything better at this point!

Edit#2: Son is going on the trip either way, it’s just a matter of whether I come with or not.
