    So I'm going out of town for the first time without my dd. She is 15 months now and I am panic stricken. She will be with my mil (who is amazing) and I am still a wreck. I have medical testing to get done and will be give FOR 4 DAYS!! Just typing that made me tear up. Am I over reacting? I'm a so used to being with her every day. Also this could be a great chance for hubs and I to have a much needed talk and break possibly even SEX with no worries!! A bonus the hospital is 3 blocks from the ocean. I am rambling sorry just so nervous!! Any advice?

    Try to enjoy your time! And have as much wild and crazy sex as possible!

    DH and I have never been away from our girls longer than 36 hrs. Pretty sure I cried! Guess I am not much help.

    Her dad has been a douche bag lately and this trip could make or break my marriage. This is his last chance to show support to me and prove himself. I have ranted on here about his shittiness before but I want to have the man I married back. I think that is adding to my anxiety. I really want him to just "man up". Talk for once and start making positive changes. I made the personal decision that this was his last shot are being my hubs. I guess my worries are more geared towards that...I just needed to talk it through. My dd loves Granny and will have a blast getting spoiled I will miss her but I think this is more about him. I don't want him to let me down again. So tired of disappointments from him.

    How hard!  But if it really is about your dh, then as scary as this time is, it is also a huge opportunity.  You have been weighted down with his crappy treatment, and now you have made a decision on how to deal with it.

    Either way you will get the testing done, have peaceful walks on the beach, and get a little time away from it all.  Best of luck to you!

    Thanks I am just a ball of nervous energy. Gonna miss my dd for sure. I have like a 4page list of things for her granny to read and instructions to follow. Hope I don't offend her.
