But... Removing the fact that Harlow is BF and the baby. Perhaps B DOES need a break (it certainly has seemed like that these last few months) and Ean was only happy watching the older 2? Not taking away anything from fathers, I myself was raised by a single dad but I've noticed often some dad's aren't too happy or confident to look after 1 child never mind a bunch. And yes I know they are primarily staying with Ean's grandmother but it still stands.

This! Not sure why everyone is freaking out. We all need breaks but she is nursing so it's not like she can just leave Harlow at home. Hopefully aria and Nolan are getting some quality time with Ean and their grandparents. It's important for them to have time away from their mother too- contrary to popular belief. They are together all the time. It would be nice for them to visit other family but britney needs a break and she should have it. Moms are better when they have had breaks lol I'm sure her family is holding Harlow so she gets plenty of alone time too.[/quote]
Yes! I was surprised at how negative everyone is about her taking a trip away without her children (I'm guessing the only reason she took Harlow is because you can't leave a boob at home).
I honestly think a little break is perfectly healthy - sometimes more so for stay at home mums - and her children are safe and being cared for by their father.
Would we be having this discussion if it was Ean going away without the kids?

I agree 100%. I do hope they do a vacation this summer as family, but I completely understand B wanting/needing some time for herself. The people saying she is playing favorites or something dont seem to have ever breastfed either...

I breastfed all my kids, so nice try. I pumped and guess what my baby took a bottle when needed. She wouldn't take one when I was home but if I had to go without her (I actually had surgery) she would take one from whoever had her. If she NEEDED to get away she wouldn't have taken ANY OF HER CHILDREN. That statement I stand by.
Nothing changes the fact that Britney IS playing favorites. All these YT moms love their new babies and love parading around with them while they have 50 more older ones at home.

That was YoUR experience. Not all babies will take a bottle! In fact, I worked in an infant classroom and 2 of the parents had to come to the center several times a day to breastfeed because their babies would not take bottles at all and they did not want to wean their babies. They were lucky they both worked on the main campus of the community college otherwise they probably would have had to wean and introduce the bottle full time.[/quote]
Exactly. My daughter didn't take a bottle under any circumstances. I had a pump but it was useless because she wouldn't take any bottle until she was weaned at 2 years old. We tried so many different bottles. It was an exhausting time since I either couldn't leave the house or had to take her with me everywhere. Wouldn't change it for anything though.
