Away from Toddler for First Time
Anyone else struggling with being away from their toddlers for the first time when it’s time to give birth? I cried about it a lot at the beginning of my pregnancy but then forgot about it. But now that I’m almost 33 weeks it’s feeling more and more real. My daughter is 2 and I’ve never spent a night away from her. Found myself sobbing today because I literally don’t know how to handle it. She’ll be with her grandma, who she loves, so I know she’ll be safe and happy for the most part. But I’m just hearing “I miss mama” in my head over and over again 😭😭😭😭😭😭

It will be ok mama!!! I have a 4.5 year old and I’ve spent nights away from her before but I find myself feeling emotional about the nights I will be in the hospital, and I wonder if it’s because we are getting the feels over the fact that we will be there to have another baby, and that adds a bit of pain when we think our other baby might be missing us. It will be the first time we feel that new special kind of mom guilt! Haha. I think just keep focusing on how to make the time with her grandma extra special, and remember it will probably be much harder on you emotionally than your toddler!
