[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am returning to work after maternity leave tomorrow and bringing the baby in to daycare for the first time. I am lying here resenting my husband for not making more money so I can SAHM. I also feel bitter because it feels like if he really thought I was a good mom he would not believe a random handful of women at daycare  is a better choice for watching our child all day than I am. Sniff. I am also mad at me for agreeing to do this when I don't want to, and not figuring out a way around it. [/quote]

Can you talk to your DH and tell him how much this bothers you?  And see if you can reduce your lifestyle but survive on his income?[/quote]

Our lifestyle is already quite bare bones. The only way to reduce it further would be to move somewhere less expensive.  [/quote]

Well, it's your life and your kids' life you're talking about. If you really feel like staying at home raising your child is critical, it would justify moving somewhere less expensive. If it's a more superficial feeling that will pass soon, then try to get past the resentment. It's not really his fault, doesn't sound like. [/quote]
