so i am a first time mum to a beautiful baby who has recently turned one, prior to being pregnant i worked part time as an assistant manager in retail & enjoyed it very much but once i fell pregnant i had to resign & move back to my hometown as i had a high risk pregnancy & couldn’t get adequate medical treatment where i was residing. i had my baby & ended up moving back, my husband jumped straight back into work while i’ve been able to be a stay at home mum. recently i’ve been considering getting back into work but i’ve been so conflicted because im terrified of putting my daughter in daycare because of all the horrific things that keep happening at daycare centre & also the fact that my daughter cannot communicate with me yet. i’ve also been advised to wait until my baby is toilet trained. my main reason for wanting to go back to work is for extra money as this economy is insane as well as long term goals. i am not struggling & live quite comfortably but extra money would be nice. am i being selfish? should i just wait until my baby is abit older especially because the money isn’t a need at the moment more so a want. in my heart i feel like i should wait but id just like other perspectives.
