Hey ladies I need advice ! So I'm due November 17th & I get 6 weeks maternity leave but when it's time for me to go back to work my gram-in-law will be watching her but she lives about 35 minutes away from where I live & I don't know how I feel about driving that far in the winter with my baby being so young but that's the only person that I trust to watch her . Hubby doesn't want me to go back to work at all or until she's a few months old at least & I kinda don't wanna go back either but ... Idk what to do ? ALL ADVICE WELCOMED !

do you think your grandmother would take turns with you in driving back and fourth?

@momma588, probably not she's retired but her health isn't the best in the winter . She's older so she doesn't like to go out much anyway

okay. well as long as you bundle your baby up good. I think all should be good to go. I've traveled with my daughter when she was born in December. I was always hesitant. but she ended up good. just don't take her out as much when she's only a couple weeks old. try to wait til she's a month old or so.

@momma588, yeah see that's the problem I work 40+ hours a week & hubby works 50+ hours so she would constantly be in & out of the house smh idk what im gonna do ... Maybe I need to just cut my hours back or something, this is my first so I'm just nervous about it all

@mrsbekoe, I guess your right , I mean we don't have too many bills we live with my mom & he works 50+ hours as a mechanic so he makes decent money , I'm just scared cause this is my first
