[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ladies give me inspiration. DH rarely travels for work but now has a two-week trip coming up. We have a toddler and an infant and I'm dreading it. But, I know that others do it so I can do it too![/quote] I'm 9:48. My advice is to adjust your expectations of what will get done and try to prepare in advance. I plan a week (or two weeks, however long) of simple or prep-in-advance meals for DD and myself. Easy, healthy comfort foods. DH and I clean up the house, change sheets, run dishwasher, etc. before he goes so that the house starts his trip with a clean slate. I also go to bed early, and by that I mean that I watch Netflix in bed most nights rather than trying to catch up on work or house stuff. The first couple days are hard, especially because DD at 21 months just doesn't really understand where her daddy is, but after that, it gets easier.[/quote]
