[quote=Anonymous]I hated every second my infants were in daycare even though they were, by all accounts, well cared-for, and have grown into really great, sociable, successful kids. Everything about it felt counterintuitive to me and I took every cold, every little frown, every time I picked them up and they had a messy outfit on, etc. to mean that I was doing the wrong thing. Meanwhile both of my babies would smile at their caregivers, go to them easily, seemed to enjoy other babies. This was 100% a me issue because I wanted to be the one taking care of them, had some PPD?PPA, and was generally burnt out for a lot of different reasons. We didn't have too much of a choice at the time. I do think other women feel this way despite their babies doing fine, and it colors the way they participate in these types of threads. [/quote]
