Infant care

Just dropped off my going 3 months old baby to infant care the first time. Can’t help but feel upset and sad .. tears flow down when I push the empty stroller back home. Anyone felt this way too? I am going back to work next week so no choice have to put ifc.. I feel I’m a bad mother and am angry at myself for missing out and missing him so badly

I did. On first day, I cant make myself to send him there, so hubby did it. And after lunch I went to pick him up. For first few weeks, I only sent him to ifc 2 to 3 times per weeks and picked him up in the afternoon. Later, the teachers commented that my child was not adapting well (cried during feeding) and suggested I sent him there more often. So for the remaining of my ML, he went ifc daily for mornings only. Until I went back to work, then he started staying there for full day.

How old was he when he started going ifc?
