hi mummies, how many of you were middle managers and decided to step down from your portfolio? did it require a lot of courage and did you have any regrets? im in a huge dilemma whether i shld step down. baby is now 10 plus month. i want to spend more time nurturing yet lack the courage to cut down on my work. anyone can offer me some wisdom here?

Time waits for no man. You can always return to work again and start. You won't be able to turn back time once you have missed baby early years. It depends on what is worth it to you. You need to logic with yourself, what you feel is best for you. Everyone have different priorities. Being a sahm is not for everyone, ideally it's the best. Similar to breastfeeding, it's the best, but it's not for everyone. End of the day keeping your sanity is more important.
