It seems my little Munchie doesn't need me as much as I thought he did. Today is the first time I have left him for longer than just a couple of hours.
I needed to go to work for a meeting. I knew it was a good opportunity to see how Munchie got on being left and I knew I needed something like this meeting to force me into leaving him.
He was dropped off at my mums at around 9:30. I left him with food, plenty of milk and some of his favourite toys. One quick work meeting and one very enjoyable lunch with a friend and then I was back on my way home for around 2:45.
In the 5 hours I was away he ate all his lunch and didnt want any of his milk. He wasn't even fussed when I offered him a boob when I collected him. He's been a good boy by all accounts.
I missed him lots, I spent most the time doing my nervous/anxious fiddling (it was my skirt hem today) but I enjoyed an adult only lunch. I used a knife and fork at the same time, I didn't have a baby on my knee while I ate and best of all I got enormous smiles of happiness and excitement when I collected Munchie. Smiles usually reserved for daddy coming home from work.
Maybe I need him more than he needs me.

I think he needs you but was probably well entertained while you were gone! I love the idea of a grown up lunch.
