[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6 weeks is ridiculous OP.  You should have planned better. Now, either your baby is in a bad situation.  I suggest you get a nanny so at least your kid won’t be subjected to daycare this young (and I’m a daycare mom). [/quote]

And that should say - either your baby or your boss is in a bad situation [/quote]

Your privilege is showing.  [b]Many of us go back to work after 6 weeks.  [/b]My mom and MIL each spent a week with the baby, then baby started daycare at 9 weeks.  Ideal?  No.  Is he fine?  Absolutely.  Healthy and happy and thriving 6 yo now.

This is harsh but you shouldn’t have a child if you have to return to work at six weeks.  We don’t have paid leave in this country because women continue to have children under abysmal conditions.  [/quote]

I would like to see you come to know my delightful, well-loved child and then tell me he shouldn't have been born because of a less than ideal childcare situation for a few weeks of his life.  Idiotic.

I can't change the maternity laws singlehandedly.  Many of us make sacrifices to have a family.  My company is too small to qualify for FMLA, by the way.[/quote]
