this is the first time me and wife went on a date without our child. well we both decided to have time as a couple. i know there is nothing wrong about that. but we both missed our son so much. at the first 30 minutes me and my wife is quite alright but as it reached to an hour we are starting to get worried and miss him. we both could'nt eat properly and decided to go home at once and bought a toy so we can give him incase he felt like we left him. as we reach home he was fine, watching dvd and eating oreos. did this feeling ever happened to you before?

I am exactly the same way. When my husband and I go out without our kids and leave them with my parents, we miss them like crazy. It's almost like we don't know what to do without them. We worry too much as well. And, usually we bring them a toy too. I think it is great you guys love your child so much. My kids are 7 and 4 and i still feel this way. Good for you.

yes we love our child so much. my wife got a lot of miscarriages before we hit the jackpot and we are very blessed to have him. from that day on my wife decided to be a hands on mom so she left her career and settled to be a 24/7 mom and wife to me. thanks a lot for the response

It is hard having to leave then but now and again it doesnt hurt to its good to have some time as a couple and its great for children to spend time with other responsible adults.
I miss my children when i hgave to leave them i always ring to check they are ok and console myself with the fact their sitter will ring me if they need to and that as long as they are with a responsible adult nothing bad can happen to them that wouldnt happen if i was there cos i onlyleave them with people i trust but it doesnt stop me missing them gosh i miss my eldest every day when she goes to school!

when we went out we felt that we missed that we time. we both know that this we time is healthy for our relationship but it was some kind of uneasy as t\hours passed by. i think we need to exercise it more often. like you said it is okay for me and for my wife to have this we time and is okay also for a child to be with other resposible adults as well. calling every now and then to check is a great idea. thanks a lot for the response

thanks a lot for the response. yes it is somehow not comfortable to be without them. i am sure my wife will feel that emptiness you are saying specially if i need to work out of town and she is all alone at home while our son is at school. we are planning to try him to go to school this june. so goodluck to me and my wife. har har har.

Oh yes..I couldn't stand to be away from mine. As they've gotten older I have been able to get out more but when they are little it seems all you want is to be with them. I still want to be with mine but they have their own activities now that keep them busy..lol..

yes i think we need to give more time to our kid/s while they are still little. once they start to to go to school and have friends it is much difficult to hold them down and ask for a kiss. specially that i have a son. i think daugthers are more clingy than son. thanks a lot for the response
