....And I have mixed feelings.
If you saw my last post, my DH and I had decided that he would be a SAHD to avoid placing our 6 week old in daycare. Well, my inlaws caught wind of this plan and decided they would help watch her and then my mom volunteered as well.
So, he didn't quit and I officially go back Monday morning.
The stress of her being placed in daycare at 6 weeks with strangers is now gone and not having to worry about him and emotionally handling being a SAHD but I don't know how I feel.
I've been on Maternity leave for 10 weeks exactly on Monday. I was placed on bed rest at 33 weeks and Baby girl was born exactly a month later.
Part of me is kinda looking forward to some adult interaction and of course contributing a paycheck again but then I have the mommy guilt and the tugging of my heart to leave her for 8hours a day.
Idk, it's just all becoming undeniably real that I have to go back and I can't ignore it anymore. I'm just getting kinda sad.
For those that really didn't want to be a SAHM but still didn't want to leave your LO, how was it when you went back? Or honestly, how was it for anyone that had to go back no matter the reason.
