[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly could have been okay physically, but I was nursing all night long and had trouble doing major things in life due to sleep deprivation (using knives, making left hand turns, remembering anything). Maybe your husband could formula feed all night long instead of you breastfeeding? I definitely bled for a good 6 weeks, but it was probably because I was at stroller strides at 3 weeks and just never rested. It's just not doable without massive help and $$$. [/quote] who would take care of the new born? 12 weeks is very young for daycare. Nobody sends a 1 week old baby to daycare. [/quote] The youngest I've ever even heard of a daycare taking a baby is 6 weeks.[/quote] So if you were planning to use daycare, just tell your DH that the daycares you called have a 6 week minimum age. Done! Then, make your budget for what you will do if you lose your job. Depending on how long you worked, you might not qualify for unemployment, so look into that.[/quote]
