Regrets going back to work after baby

Posted by: momsworkhard on Mon Oct 22, 2018

I returned to work when out y baby girl was 4 months old. First my mother in law took care of her, then when she was 8 months we put her into a small daycare. A piece of my heart broke everytime I dropped her off. When I would pick her up, I would often find out about firsts that I had missed. We are now planning for baby #2, and I so much want to be a Stay at Home Mom for our baby and our now 3 year old until she goes off to school. While we definitely can afford more things because I am working, I can not help but wonder if it will be worth it. For me, I already feel like it is not. But what about when my kids grow up, if it will impact them in ways I do not know. Anyone else feel conflicted about this?
