I left DS overnight for the first time at 12wks, it was a 24hr trip but DH survived :-) DS was 4.5mos old the first time we both left him overnight. By then, he was STTN so my ILs didn't have any issues. We didn't have a chance to do that again until DS was one. DS is definitely wild during the day but they managed in a non childproofed house.

I had to travel overnight for work at 3.5 and 4.5 months. My mom watched her the first time and DH was with her the second time. She slept through the night pretty consistently from about 8 weeks on, so it wasn't terrible for my mom or DH. Pumping was pretty miserable as she drank about 40oz a day when I was gone. My mom lived a 4 hour plane ride from DD at the time and relished every moment. DH had a great time too. I'm the only one that had a hard time.
