Bright side

My bright side is that I have my son. My husband still has to work and he works crazy hours. Before my son was born I was a teacher so I would be out a job now anyways. If I didn't have my son id be bored and lonely and honestly would probably fall into depression. To have him and to see his smile every day brings me so much joy every single day.

Bright side for me: My maternity leave had ended, I worked for two weeks, then the shelter at home began. So now I get to be home with my baby!! Extended maternity!

My daughter has never been to daycare. I returned to work Mar 16th and our daycare closed the 17th (got a text message at 9:30 pm on the 15th) so my husband kept her home so she didn't go for just one day. The 3rd day at the office I was stopped on my way out and told to work from home until further notice. I can basically pick my own schedule, just have to have my 40 hrs by the end of the week. I am really liking be able to breastfeed her and not having to pump all day. The only downside I can see at this point is it is going to be extremely hard when I have to go into the office and she has to daycare.

I'm a stay at home mom and my husband was commuting about an hour each way to work. He used to work a couple miles from our house but he took a new job while I was pregnant. We had the intention of moving closer this summer but now not sure what will happen. Anyway, with him commuting 2 hours of his day I felt like he had so little time during the week to spend with the baby before bedtime. Now we get so much extra family time in the morning and evenings and I love it!

My hubby travels a lot for work or works long hours and now with this he is working from home and we get to spend so much more time together and he gets to watch all of our sons milestones now. So it’s been nice having him home.
