i feel so guilty that i have to place my son into child care.. from morning to night.. as i have to return to work on jan.. but we been trying to put him in now so by jan, hope that i can work in peace.. is it alright to leave him and have some of my 'me' time now? i feel so guilty doing so.. he play and awhile will cry for mommy.. is good that he goes to child care right? to learn new things and make friends.. he is 33 months now..

Hey mummy, its a mummys guilt and thats okay. Whats more important is you need to be strong for your baby. You need me time too. Its not selfish, its called self care. By taking care of yourself you are helping baby. Im sure baby wouldnt want a burned out, grumpy mother. Whilst baby is there he is given all the attention needed, he learns new things as well. And by the time you recharge you can give him your 200 percent again. Isnt that more logical and practical. Think of it that way.
