Does Your Baby Take Part In Your Vacation?
« on: July 05, 2012, 09:14:22 AM »
How do you deal with your baby?
Take him/her along? Leave at a babysitter? relatives?
(Of course it depends what age).
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Depends what we plan on doing. If its stuff thats possible with a baby we bring him along. (like sight seeing, biking, boating e.t.c)

i think you have to decide what you are looking for a family vacation or spouse vacation.

i love my kids dearly but if i want to spend time with my wife, kids cant be there.

in my case (2 nights away) i'm leaving both my kids by my parents.

Age 0-6 months = yes, 6 months and up = no way. They kill the atmosphere....

It's been discussed here before. I think that moish summed it up best -

its pretty much impossible to have a vacation with kids. however, trips are possible

Right.
When they're too young its somehow hard for the parents to leave them behind...

i didn't say you should leave them behind, all i said is that it's not a vacation, either call it a family trip or wait till the baby is older (which is what i did, my youngest is 17 months)
