My DD is 9 weeks old and I will have to return to work full time in 3 weeks. DD will be attending daycare full time when I return. I spent a lot of time researching daycares and selected one while i was still pregnant. Today DH and I went to do a walk through, complete paperwork, etc. We did not even leave DD there and I started crying when we left. I have felt sick to my stomach the rest of the day. Staying home is financially not an option for me right now, nor do I think I want to stay home in the long run (although having a year to stay home like in most other countries would be ideal).
I am looking for advice from other moms who have BTDT for how you dealt with the transition back to work and leaving your baby at daycare. I am not looking for advice on how I could stay home, cut expenses, etc. nor do I want this thread to turn into a debate on stay-at-home vs. working moms (there have been plenty of those recently.)
