Need advice - 5 months post partum

Hi there! I had a question about postpartum. I am currently 5 months postpartum and loving being a mom. I work full time and send my baby to daycare 3 days a week.

I don’t really enjoy being away from my baby. I’ve gotten sort of used to daycare but miss my baby soooo much when he’s gone. I really look at the weekends as my time to spend with my son and husband as a family.

Anyway long story short I have a long 3 hour test for something and my husband would like to take my son to his uncles house for the day since he will need help moving. I sadly won’t be able to come because I have my exam and need to prep for it and the take the exam which is like 3 hours long. My husband is adamant about taking him and doesn’t understand why I can’t be away from my baby. I just really don’t know what will be going on and I need to make sure that everything is okay. I don’t know if this is controlling or a hormone thing since I am newly postpartum.

I offered to reschedule which I will do anyway and my husband said no. I just want my son with me and I feel bad I feel that way but I feel that way often when it comes to my baby, it’s fine if my husband is with him when I run to the store or if my mom watches him while I work upstairs for a bit but when I am far away I freak out.

Is this normal? Did anyone else feel that way??
