[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would have happily let my husband take the baby for a week without me.  Sounds like it's toddler age not a newborn. I would have loved a break from my kid at that age (or really any age)! Your wife sounds kind of anxious and honestly not very compassionate given that your mom is has a terminal illness.[/quote]

I wouldn’t. 
Sounds like the toddler is in day care so Dad suddenly being a primary caregiver of an 18 mos old or whatever who is jetlagged, still on bottled milk and purées and in diapers is not easy. 
My spouse could not and would not do it, maybe he’d underestimate it as easy but truth is it is not easy. He’s probably dump the upset kid on the first anutie or nurse he saw.
Even packing for such a baby’s trip or the actual airport/airplane/car seat debacle is not easy.

Is this an emerging market country? Do they have the same formula available? Require car seats? Can you drink the tap water when making formula? Will they respect the child’s diet or try out new spices and see what happens?

Maybe the mother can join with the baby for one of the weeks. Am still assuming this is a transatlantic or trans-north pole flight for the child and yourselves. [/quote]

Who is making formula for an 18-month old? [/quote]

Day care worker or someone’s pumping and freezing and sending it in.

AT EIGHTEEN MONTHS?[/quote]
