Has anyone went back to work willingly?

My baby is 9 months and I’m super ready for work. I found a home daycare with people I trust very much so that definitely helps with that anxiety. And having a job really helps with a change of scenery! I’m super excited to go back

My baby isn’t a baby anymore, but I put him in daycare when he was about 10 months old. I always knew I’d go back to work immediately after my maternity leave. I started looking for daycares when i was still pregnant. I found a nice facility for him to go to and he went there up until pre-k. No regrets.

I went back at 8 months PP and took my baby with me. I am a preschool teacher.. but I quit after my child got assaulted by one of his teachers and filed a police report and filed a complaint with the school as well with the state.

I have a very close friend who did that. Honestly, it saved her sanity and her relationship with her son.

I will be going back to work, my husband and I decided it's better for mum to maintain work skills, have a life away from being a parent/wife and socialise. The extra money also nice.
Nothing wrong with those who choose to or need to stay home it is a decision the couple needs to make for their own family.

I’m in the same predicament. My daughter is two and I don’t have to go back but would love to.
