i also kinda wanted a brake not from my son but just to clear my mind its so hard being a first time mom 24 7 sometime i feel like i need to have some time just for me

Answer 1

i don't think it would make you a bad parent to leave your son with your mother, a person you trust and know will keep your child safe.

but you might want to consider your husband's feelings about wanting to see the child. if he's been away for long periods of time, he probably feels a piece of him is missing... knowing his son is far away every day

perhaps you could give your husband the gift of spending time with the baby?

i guess it's something you and your husband might want to discuss further. take care

Answer 2

I don't see anything wrong with leaving your son with your mother because you know that he will be well taken care of. However, If your husband wants to see his son then you should take him with you.

Answer 3

Your husband deserves to see his son. He has priority over your mother

Answer 4

No, I think that would be a bad idea this early. That's a fifth of his life! A child that young needs his mother.

Answer 5

It's probably better for your son to stay with your Mother rather than going far and getting sick from travelling.

Answer 6

What do you think grandmothers should do, sit around and do nothing? I'll bet your mom would love to have the baby around!
