[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, I did not feel that the infant years were "magical" in fact, [b]I very much felt the opposite and had PPD that only went away once I got back into my routine and went back to work. Before then, I cried every day for hours.[/b] Clearly being in an in-home daycare was a better environment for my infant than being home with me. It was better for all of us. He was in an in-home daycare with a 1:4 ratio and it was a loving, nurturing, safe environment. The socialization with other babies was incredible for him, and he thrived. They even potty trained him at 20 months because he saw the bigger kids doing it and wanted to do it too! OP, please don't feel like all daycares are bad, or that you're a bad mother for sending your kid to one. You're not! Does your husband feel this way?
