What's the duration u will give urself and ur baby to determine whether to apply toa and be a sahm till ur baby is a year old? Background of situation: baby's losing weight in sch cus not drinking well. He's 6mths. Household financially ok but if I stop working, it will be very tight and car has to be sold. Many have been telling me that give baby time to adapt etc. But what if he goes on like this for a few months?? I do not want to regret.

I could not bear to leave my baby with infant care so I quitted my job and be SAHM. Now she has started playgroup and is on half day programme with a childcare. After being a SAHM, I realized that the best gift for your kid is to always have a mum by his/her side. I guess I will continue to be SAHM and find some part time jobs if possible. :) Finance-wise, you got to work it out with your hubby. To me, car is just a good to have. It is pretty easier to travel around Singapore. I am sure there will be a way if you are determined enough to be a SAHM.
