Would you leave your 4 month old for school/work trip?

Mackenzie • Baby boy born 9/6/18 & 1/18/21 💙💙

I am considering a Maymester (two week) study abroad program for my UG studies. It counts towards my degree.

However I am due in January, and my son will only be around 4 months old when/if I go. My husband will also be deployed and we also have a 2 year old who will be about 2.5 around May timeframe.

If my in-laws and parents are comfortable they would watch my babies, but I’m unsure whether I feel comfortable leaving my baby that long when he’s that young. I also feel like I could be missing a once in a lifetime chance to study something I am passionate about.

I’ve spent most of my college pregnant/being a mom and really want this for myself, but am really hesitant.

Would you leave your baby?
