I resigned from my job after I've given birth to my LO. Now he is 17 months old n my mil kept asking me to send him to Childcare cos she said LO when being taken care by me learns n develops v slow .. e.g. Still can't self feed using spoon, can't speak many words yet. Etc .. I'm feeling v sad .. Did I do anything wrong by wanting to take care of my LO until 3 then send him to Childcare b4 I return back to work ? Sigh .. :(

first you are not wrong for caring for him. babies develop faster when in school as they are exposed. you may want to consider placing him for playgroup at least. in that way you are still the main caregiver at the same time baby goes to school and has friends his age.
