Infant care

Mummies i need some opinion. Do you guys send ur baby to IFC? If yes starting which month? And what is the pro n cons? Hearsay baby easily falls sick ah.. and what to ask when i go for school tour? Thinking to send my LO there when she is 4m (after ml ends) as no one can help us take care of her in the day. When we wfh then we wont send bb to ifc

My first one I sent at 2.5M (my back-up was giving birth too). Good thing was my baby became more “structured” and easy to sleep at night. I sooth my baby to sleep every night rocking him around his cot (with bad pain) while IFC train them to sleep in the cot (with occasional patting). Fall sick yes but the PD comforted me as well my boy by 5yo will be a stronger boy than those who stay home for entire 5Y because their immune system is “not trained”. Indeed he was sick a lot but now he does better than his cousins who never attended IFC and was breastfed longer. I am an analyst and does not want to lose my credibility multitasking/coping with a baby while I WFH (my husband earn less than me). It’s not the best for the baby but it is more sustainable. Do what you can afford.
