It's not so much as wanting to be away from the husband, no I don't think that feeling is healthy, but more about wanting to do things or being OK with doing things that don't necessarily involve your husband. For example, I think female companionship is good and healthy and I don't imagine your husband would want to go away for a girls weekend
Too young is relative to the individual. I suppose you have to do what you are comfortable with. I left my son overnight with my husband when he was eight months old but I felt 100% comfortable with that. I was even still nursing but had pumped plenty of milk. But I have a friend raving on Facebook that her husband had to "watch" their four month old son for two hours all by himself, upstairs no less while she had a meeting from home so it wasn't even like she left the house
. I have completely different expectations from a father and husband than from many people though. I left my son all the time for a few hours when he was an infant, but I have a hobby that is very important to me.
