Guilt

I'm feeling so guilty right now. I cant afford daycare so luckily i can take my son to work with me everyday. Everyday since he was like 3 months old and he is now 12 months old. I am thankful to be able to do so. On the other hand having him from sun up until sun down has really worn on me. I find myself getting frustrated and feeling like i have no time for myself or when i do Im tired or trying to prepare for the next day. I don't have any friends or family i can get help from. I guess i would like some attention myself after giving all of mine to my mini me. Then when i say it it loud i just feel extremely guilty and worthless for thinking that way. Anyone in the same boat? :(

To be quite honest your feelings are absolutely normal. Unfortunately that is the draw back of having no additional support. Just know it will not always be that way. My kids are older but I remember having similar feelings.

Before you know it he will be in preschool or kindergarten! Trust me time flies.

It’s awesome that you can take your son to work.
