hi. i'm mommy yvon from the philippines. i'm a working mom. i have to be away from my kid `cause i'm working. i've not seen him for nearly 6 months but just recently, we had a vacation together for 2 weeks. and now he's back to my hometown with his dad's siblings taking care of him while he goes to school. it's hard being away from my kid as it is hard to be with him also `cause i'm a single mom and i do most of the work.
Hi all,
If you are interested in being part of a research study about parenting, please follow the link below to be directed to an anonymous survey site to complete a series of surveys about how you interact with your child. Your participation is very appreciated!
Thank you!
Just started back to work this month after maternity leave. I hate it! I want to stay home with my baby. I hate hearing about all the things he did at the sitters that I missed! I wish we had a better system for moms taking leave. In other countries, they get 6 months paid!
Crystal...I'm so sorry. I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better.
Here's an interesting perspective that won't make you feel better in the short-term, but that I've found interesting. I know how you feel - I feel the same way and have since I dropped by now 18-month-old off at daycare when she was 3 months. But recently, I've been interviewing candidates for a part-time position at my company and was really interested to hear from mothers of middle-school and teenagers and they all said it's way more critical to be home at that point in their lives...for a million reasons. This has given me the insight to plan for part-time work at that point in my child's life. But at the same time, I've realized that my child loves me and my husband the best - no matter who takes care of them all day long. Be comforted to know that they love you best and KNOW you best. Enjoy your weekends and evenings with your little darling - it's best for you both. We're all doing the best we can. Best to you. Hang in there. And be sure to take care of YOU!

Maternity leave is up...I go back to work on Monday. I have so many mixed feelings about it.
My 6 weeks at home with Maggie seemed to FLY by. While towards the end it was getting hard to be at home alone for so many hours...me I'd gladly "learn" how to deal with that over being back at work. If only right? Mondays are really hard. Then I'm into the swing of the week. Then Fridays (today) DRAG by because I'm always so ready to get her and spend a weekend with her.
It was really really hard to go back at first. I guess over time you just "get used to" leaving baby all day, but it's pretty sad that so many of her waking hours are spent at daycare.
Finding the right caregiver(s) is key. I've switched my daughter twice because of disappointing situations. Third times the charm for us, I think! Keep your ears open even after you have your first situation worked out.
I still wish I was financially able to stay home and watch my baby grow and discover all day
