[quote=Anonymous]I’d say yes, but then the next weekend would be my weekend “off.” Pack your breast pump and go stay at a local hotel with some bubble bath and good books. If mom “can manage” for a weekend on her own because it’s “not climbing Everest,” then so can dad. But to be honest I think I’d die of shock if my DH had asked to go to Vegas when we had a newborn. He was so busy pitching in with 2 kids that I don’t think he would have had to energy for a trip like this. (Ours were 2 years apart though, so it was 2 in diapers and a toddler who fought bedtime and would also occasionally wake up). Maybe with a larger gap you have more energy? But I sort of feel like if you have the physical and mental energy for a gambling weekend in Vegas then you’re not really pulling your share during parental leave.[/quote]
