Is this weird?

Hi It's been a while since I've been on the boards. I just had a baby on 1-2, my second son. Anyway, with my first son, Jack, I had terrible post partum depression. It's been even worse with Ben. My DH thinks I need something to look forward to and he said I should take my mom and Jack and go to Disney for a few days. He put in for time at work and will stay home with Ben who will be 12 weeks old at the time.

I do have to admit, it is nice to have something to look forward too, but it is bad of me to leave my newborn home to go to Disney for 5 days. I feel a little bit guilty about it, even though it was DH's idea that I go.

I booked my hotel and flight, but I could still cancel and have up to a year to rebook the flight.

I mean, it's not like I'm going alone, I'm bringing Jack. He's 2 1/2 now and this will be his 2nd Disney trip. I think it will be nice for him to get my undivided attention.

So what do you guys think, am I a bad mom or do I just have a really awesome DH?
