[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a newborn and 3.5 year old and am extremely unhappy with my life right now no childcare no school no family. Just chiming in as I’m reading about these happy families with all the help, smiles, money, and sunny dispositions. [/quote] Chicken Little DCUMers tried to scare me into giving up childcare when I had a newborn to eliminate COVID risk (ie pull my older child out of preschool and tell my nanny to stay home). I am SO glad I did not listen to them. Mental health is important too.[/quote] I put my daughter in preschool in the summer of 2020. I then went into a gigantic guilt and fear spiral but it was honestly the best decision I could have made at that time when I had a newborn at home and my daughter was desperate for social interaction with peers and I was desperate for solo time with the baby.
