No family support?

Question

Anyone else not have any family that can babysit... if so what do you do to get out once in a while.

Answer

Our closest family is 5 hrs away and I’m not ready to leave with friends (baby is 8 months). It’s been MONTHS since my husband and I have gone out together. We usually take turns. BUT my inlaws are in town visiting and offered to babysit! We are so excited to have a date night tomorrow!!!!

Answer

Either my husband watches LO, I do, or he goes with us.

Answer

My MIL literally lives 4 minutes away from us but I don't trust her so, my kids go everywhere with me. If I can, I make appointments when I know my SO will be home.

Answer

I literally dont ever get me time or alone time. It has been that way for 2 years.

Answer

We’ve got no family members anywhere near us. We haven’t really been out at all since our daughter was born 15 months ago with the exception of one night when we went to a wedding and had grandma watch her because she was visiting. 
I miss date night.

Answer

I dont really get to go out but occasionally my mother inlaw will mind her for a couple of hours.

Answer

We are 2000 miles from family. We don’t use daycare and no one has ever watched our two year old except her Grammy a couple times while visiting. So we don’t really go out together.
The girls I know that use daycare hire their daycare teachers to babysit.
