Daycare vs Stay at home
Hi friends, my son is 8 months old and I currently stay at home with him, but I also work from home full time. Now that he's crawling and trying to walk and pulling himself up on everything, it's getting much more difficult to get things done. Fortunately, he still takes two good naps a day and that's basically when I hustle. However I'm beginning to think that this isnt going to be sustainable. Plus I feel guilty that I'm not taking him out and socializing enough since I have to be near my computer for work during the day. I've been considering putting him in daycare part time, but the idea literally puts a frog in my throat and tears start welling in my eyes. I can't imagine not being with him. I don't trust anyone else. Plus I worry he'll be confused if some days he's there and some days he's not. Like he won't have a consistent schedule anymore. I know many woman don't have a choice and they have to put their kids in childcare, but deep down I think I know that I don't HAVE to, which makes me feel more guilty. Sorry for this long rant. I've been thinking about this nonstop and feel lost.
