How old was your baby when you started going out for some alone time?

Question

I dont mean by working. I mean like going for a little date night or enjoying your time alone somewhere besides home.

Answer

We had our son December 16, and we went to dinner and out for a couple hours with friends on December 31.  Baby was left at home with my mom.  We needed it!  He was safe, and we were happy.  We did date nice once a month from then on our...then the pandemic happened 😂😂😂

Answer

I started going to get my nails done again when my baby was 2 or 3 weeks old.

Answer

2-3 months
I would normally just have alone time by sleeping for an hour maybe less every 3-4 months while a family member watched my son for me tbh I'd rather take sleep as an "alone time" than going out any day but that's just me I love my sleep 😂

Answer

6 months. And never gone longer than 2 hrs till he was around 15 months. Still at 2.5 we haven’t done an overnight but we have that planned for April!

Answer

After they became a year old. I breastfeed so it was kinda hard to go anywhere . Now I did run for some errands as long as they were under 2 hours while the baby slept with gigi.

Answer

My son is 18 months and I haven’t left him longer than to run to the grocery store for 15-20 minutes or for a medical appointment yet.

Answer

i did a little here and there up until my son was about 4-5 months old and then he was on his own schedule with me and constantly awake during the day so he was my responsibility to take care of i felt like. my husband was also deployed so i felt less obligated to spend time on my own because i was asking my mom and dad to watch him so i could spend an hour or two out but honestly would rather have someone come over and spend the down time just relaxing. he’s almost 2 now and my husband is back from deployment but has a demanding work schedule so i still don’t really do anything on my own unless my son is asleep or i have a doctors appointment (second baby) 
don’t feel guilty for spending some time away from your baby. it’s hard but not practicing self care and self love can sometimes be harder!
