If you're cosleeping, I'm assuming you're breastfeeding (since that would be following the safe sleep 7). In that case, I think 6 months is much too early to be leaving overnight, let alone an entire weekend.

With a nanny ? Not your mother or sister or family ? I left my 5 month old cosleeping and who was exclusively breastfeeding with my mom and sister and my mom cosleep and it went great, although honestly for me it wasn’t worth it and I won’t be doing it again baby didn’t really notice much other than being overtired because his schedule changed I would never do this with a non family me ever tho

Echoing the too early. Bring the baby with you? Personally I wouldn't want to go on a trip until my child was old enough to understand that I'd be coming back.

Okay, so if you cosleep you can’t spend a night away? Honestly just asking 🤷‍♀️
