Thank you for understanding. It’s not about the money. We lived off alot less during training and I’m fine with that. I think my husband’s income is fine. It’s more about basically sacrificing all my years of working hard if I leave at this point. It’s not as easy as people say to just go part time! Esp now with how health care is going most large health systems want full time or promise part time but then make you cover for people and it is essentially full time. It truly is potentially giving up a career and all the training if I want to have the bonding others have with their babies esp if I decide to take 6 months with this baby (not in the cards for this job). I can just suck it up like I did with my daughter but it still pains me that she didn’t bond with me.[/quote]

OP - you get second and third and fourth chances, with babies and kids. You truly do. I know people think there's this miraculous "infant bonding" period but it is more complex than that. If you didn't spend a lot of time with your daughter as an infant... you can still form those connections later. [/quote]
