I honestly applaud anyone who is taking care of a child by themselves for any reason! My husband is military and left the first month of our child’s life and that was the hardest thing I’ve ever done! and he is now being deployed this week for a year in a different country and our son will be 3 months.

I have so much anxiety because our child has started daycare and it’s so hard for me to leave him everyday but I had to enroll him because I wanted to return to work full time to help me get through my husbands deployment and keep me busy. I get depressed so easy just sitting at home all day even though i love my baby and want to be with him 24/7.

I just know this is going to be the hardest thing i will ever have to do. . I’m so anxious, sad, upset, etc. I know I need to keep it together to take care of our son, but it’s going to be so hard!!!

Any ideas on how I can get through this? My heart is literally aching.
