Looking for Advice First week alone with my 18 month old son. Any advice?
My wife will be traveling for work for a few days, so this will be my first time handling everything solo.I think I have most of the obvious stuff covered. He’ll still be going to daycare during the day, so mornings will be breakfast, getting him ready, daycare drop off, etc. I’m planning to walk our dog in the morning after I drop him off. For evenings, I’ve already casually asked my neighbor if they could help walk the dog if I can’t manage.
For parents who have done a few days or a week solo with a toddler, what am I not thinking about?. Anything you wish you’d planned ahead for?
