Im a mom of three little boys, ages 6-4 yrs of age.
I will be having my first Video EEG done March 7th, and Im kind of nervous about leaving my little ones! Im a stay at home mom, so Im use to doing everything around the house, cleaning, laundry, taking care of the kids, etc.
My husband works full time, but he got that week off. So he will be staying at home with the kids. Well, two are in school, Kindergarten and 1st grade, the youngest still is at home. So while Im gone, he has to get the kids up in the morning, get two of them ready for school, take all 3 out to drop them off at school, and come home. Now when my husband is at work, he works first shift... (6am - 2pm) I come home after dropping the kids off at school, and most of the time, our youngest will fall back to sleep for an extra couple of hours. So I lay down with him, and then we get up and get ready for the day. I start my day off by getting myself and our youngest ready, and then its time to start with the house chores, and cleaning, laundry, etc.
Im nervous because my husband is what most mom's call.... "Lazy".
He likes to sit around and watch tv, play video games, get on the internet, etc. On his days off, he does hardly anything! I feel like my job being a "housewife" is a 24/7 job. Im just nervous that he's going to not get the stuff done while Im gone.... I got to thinking, and I started to write up a list of duties he would need to do, that I do everyday, while Im gone.
does that sound like Im being too over demanding? I just want to make sure the kids are taken care of and the house stays in one piece!
I will be 45 miles away from them, so I wont be in the same town as them.
What I think will be taking place, is my mom and husband will be taking turns being with me on a daily bases. When my husband comes to see me, he will bring our youngest, and then my mom will be here to pick up the kids from school, and the next day my mom will be with me, and my husband will be here.
I just wondered if any moms out there had been away from their kids for a period of time for any medical reasons, etc and how you handled it?
