Is it bad?

Question

My in-laws offered to pay our (my husband and I) way on a cruise for the summer of 2016 as a big family vacation. I'm pregnant and die in November so by the time the cruise rolls around the baby would be 7 months old. Is it terrible and selfish that I want to go?  I'm not even sure I could b/c most moms tell me how hard it is to be away from their babies, but I'm feeling guilty for even wanting to do it.

Answer

Why don't you bring your baby with you?

Answer

I would totally bring your baby with you, I'm in the same exact boat, due November and MIL wanted to go on a family cruise next year. Absolutely nothing wrong with taking your little one.

Answer

Yeah, take the baby with you. May not be quite as relaxing, but it'll still be fun.

Answer

If it's a big family vacation what made you decide not to take you little one ? And if you can go without your child you shouldn't be hard on yourself mommies need a little break and you can focus on your husband during this time but also you never now how you will feel when the baby comes I go crazy spending one night away from my daughter who is two. Just keep your options open but I say go for it.

Answer

I agree! Whatever u decide is fine, but consider options. Nothing wrong with taking your baby. In fact, once your baby is here you might feel differently about leaving him/her. If you bring ur baby I'll know exactly where he/she is and you'll be able to relax more bc you're not worried about how they are. Consider what will be best for ur situation, either way u have a great opportunity in front of u and you'd be crazy not to go!

Answer

NEVER feel guilty for wanting time to yourself or with your husband! It's important in marriage for you to have that time with each other. Don't let anyone guilt trip you for wanting to do something for yourself. You know you're a good mother & so does God and that's all that matters. If someone wants to get mad or judge you for taking a vacation they're either jealous because they can't or have no life. Either way it's their own personal problem they have with themselves. Go for it & have fun with your husband. Your life & sense of adventure doesn't end because you have a baby! 😊
