How Soon? Posted: 08-12-04 11:38am
Im just wondering. .Those that have had
their babies, how soon after did u go out,
have someone watch him/her? (not all the
time, just sometimes, like go out w/
friends, a boyfriend etc ) I have 2 times
and hes 3 1/2 weeks. Once to the movies
and straight home.. And once to eat but
only for like 30 minutes. I just feel
like I would be a bad mom if I went out
and left him here so soon? Or is it
normal this soon? How long do you think u
should wait? Im just talking about
sometimes, not daily or anything. Thanks!

I have only left josh 3 times and he is 4
1/2 months. But I enjoy taking him
places. 2 times were in his first 10 days
cuz I was spending time with dewitt.
(ugh) lol. I don't see any problem with
leaving garret with your mom or whoever
for a couple of hours. I know I need my
me time and my sister will play with josh
for a few minutes while I shower or jump
on here or whatever. Everyone needs me
time! So don't feel bad!

Well, I am not a mommy, but I am going to
answer anyway!Lol.
I feel that it is okay whenever you are
ready. Because if you aren't ready, you
will know, if he isn't ready you will
know, and if you have someone that you
really trust to leave him with then it is
no big deal. You do need some alone
time, ya know.
Overnight is a different story! Everyone
I know who has kids didn't leave their
baby with someone else overnight for a
long, long time! Too hard!
But anyway, yeah whenever you feel that
you are ready is fine.
