Help me feel good about this...(working moms)
It looks like i might have to return to work. With the economy getting so bad I dont think I can stay home until January/Feb as planned. And our business is not doing well at all. We are in a sh$& load of financial trouble.
I feel really bad on one end b/c I didnt leave my son until he was 5 months now with DD i have to leave her possibly at 3 months old to go back to work.
I am really sad about it.

You are doing what is best for you and your family. While your heart is probably breaking a bit, the only thing I can say is that you will get through it. I also went back after 3 months, and the week before I had to go back to work, I thought I was going to have a break down! Once I got back and got into that schedule, it got much better. You just have to remember that this is what is best for your family - if you stayed home even though you weren't financially capable, you would feel worse.

You're doing what you HAVE to do for your family - try not to compare what you did with DS to what you can do for DD. Times are different.
I'm sure it'll be hard for you to return to work sooner than planned - but you are working to HELP your family.

I'm so sorry! I went back to work when DD was 8 weeks old. Don't feel guilty - lots of us moms work these days!

I've done both and honestly when your family needs the money the responsible thing is to go to work. It will be hard but you are doing the right thing and maybe when things get better down the road you will be able to stay home.
You're a great mom for being financially responsible.

I'm nowhere near that situation... DD is 8.5 months old, and I am only working part time.... but I hate it as well... I can't stand leaving her on the days that I have to....
