I'm looking at my calendar and realize there's only a couple of days left before I return back to work. 12 weeks of maternity leave is just too short and I even took an additional two weeks making it 14 weeks. I don't know how moms do it when they have to go back after six weeks.
I think this being the second baby it might be a little bit easier to leave her at daycare than with my first. Although with my first she was 12 months before going to daycare, my second will only be four months. Like many parents I wonder if daycare is the best decision. But staying home is not an option, I am a working mom. And props to stay at home moms, I don't think I could stay at home.
