I need advice moms! Spending the night

So my boyfriend and I have tickets to a comedy show tomorrow. We really have not done anything super fun since my son was born on 2/3. My mom said she’ll watch him but she lives 45 minutes away. This means he’ll probably have to spend the night. Have any of you allowed your LO spend the night with family yet? I’m considering not even drinking so I can go pick him up but my mom is saying I need to enjoy myself and he’ll be fine but idk. Advice?

I let my daughter spend 2 nights (at the insistence of my husband) with my parents. It was our 5th wedding anniversary, and I was really happy we celebrated. It was hard but very refreshing! I would recommend doing it if you trust her!

@Heather yeah, atleast they’re coming to your house so your baby is still in your home. I certainly feel you. New mom guilt I guess. I’ll let you guys know!

Yes. My lil man spent the weekend at grandmas house once he was 2 weeks old

I know exactly how you feel. Our good friends are getting married in Vegas mid July. I really didn’t want to go because I don’t want to leave my little. Heck, I cried when we left her at our house with my MIL for a few hours to go have a few beers with friends just up the road. My mom and aunt are coming to stay at our house with her while we’re away, but I almost cry every time I think about leaving her. One night would be bad enough, but we’re going to be gone Thursday-Sunday and I’ll probably be a mess the entire time. Of course everyone says I need to enjoy myself but idk how I’m going to be able to. And my MIL keeps telling me and my husband that we need to do something just as a couple, but it’s going to be hard. Best of luck to you! Let us know how it goes!

I think you should go and enjoy yourself. I haven't left my baby for an overnight yet, but I'm certainly not opposed to it. HAVE FUN! ❤️

Were doing our first overnight away this weekend too! Wedding anniversary were going to a show and getting a hotel. My mom came to town to watch the baby. Little anxious but happy to start feeling like my own person again even if it's just for a night

@Kaila yeah I tried to get her to come her but I know my mom is AMAZING with kids so I’m sure he’ll be good but I’m so nervous. I refuse to drive to get him after I’ve been drinking but I do need a good night out with his dad.

My husband and I are going to a concert next month and getting a hotel for the night so both my mom and his mom want to watch him so they will be coming to our house and staying the night. I have taken my son to my parents and we have stayed the night but I have always been with him I'm nervous but excited to get alone time with my husband
