[quote=Anonymous]OP, here's one more suggestion. Did the 5 hour drive time account for holiday traffic? I might stay until Tuesday morning, then get up and leave a 5 a.m. (won't the baby be up anyway?) and have your husband drop you at work at 9 (or be an hour late and take just that as vacation). One advantage of having a baby is that you're up at insane times anyway, so you might as well leverage that to avoid the traffic. If you nurse baby before you leave, she may just fall back asleep in the car. If she's nursing at 2, 3, or 4, you could even leave then, if you or your husband is able to safely drive that early in the a.m. I would rather do that than try to be on the road on the afternoon/evening at the end of the holiday weekend. And I would not feel at all bad showing up to work basically unshowered and straight from the car. Bring a clean shirt to throw on, put your hair in a pony tail, and use the "new mom" excuse.[/quote]
