    That's what I thought RE being at home, but at the same time that's 20 mins away and if he hurts himself he'll want me, at least if he's in the pram he cant hurt himself...

    listen to me - I better not get outta bed tomorrow, might get hit by a bus.

    LOL, I always think the worst too! I'm sure he'll be fine though. Let us know how it all goes!

    how are you feeling this morning?

    cheezel monster reminded me - we've left DS quite a few times & the thing that drives me completely crazy is that he will ALWAYS sleep for DP's mum & she can just put him in his sleeping bag & then in her porta cot & he goes off to sleep without a fuss. and it's usually for longer than he does at home

    your SIL will probably be super careful with him too & will almost have him wrapped in cotton wool so he can't hurt himself!

    hope you enjoy the movie

    hun, hope today goes well.

    I left DD2 with MIL for the first time the other day, my psycho, mummy can't leave the room little girl and she was fine, didn't even care i was gone.

    The first time i left DD1 was to go to a movie, i felt horrible and she was at home with HER DAD!
    After a while i did enjoy the movie but we got home quickly and the cuddles were just gorgeous, she was still awake as her cousin was there (same age) and he wasn't a happy boy... but she was fine.. fed her to sleep and all was good.

    I know it's hard the first time you leave them out of your sight but I think if you're leaving him with someone you trust, then it's fine and I bet you will have a GREAT time with your DH!!! Eventually there will come a time when he needs to be left with someone and it sounds like you could do with the small break anyway
    Enjoy that movie! It's only a couple of hours and I think your DS will have a BALL!!! Sometimes our little people need a small break from us too, it's good for them
