My MIL is telling me to suck it up and be a STAHM instead of trying to go back to work after I have little Willow. I have nothing against mommies who stay at home but I know in my heart that I will not be able to do it. I suffer from anxiety and depression and I know if I stay at home and can't get out of the house then things will get worse and worse. I think she is telling me all of this because she doesn't want to babysit her when I go to work like weve been talking about this whole pregnancy. And I can't afford daycare. I'm already upset about losing the house I was supposed to move into over the weekend and now she's rubbing it in and telling me to go somewhere else.

You should look around in your area if there are any STAH moms that are looking for other kids to watch during the day! There's plenty in my area, and it's cheaper than day care!

Ive been looking for months and the only ones I can find that I trust charge way too much. almost $500 a week which is the same as a daycare is going to cost @keepingupwithhj

I suffer with the same thing and I think staying at home is better and causes less anxiety then work does. but that's just for me personally. my mom is forcing me to work and I wanna stay at home bc I don't want someone else raising my kids

I have depression and anxiety, I'm a stay at home mom going on 3 1/2 years now. I think it's been much better for me to stay home. I hated the idea of leaving my son even for an hour with family. So being able to be with him all the time really eased my mind. I feel like going to work would cause more anxiety cuz if your baby's sick and you have to call into work they'll get mad and that thought stressed me out to the max. I know everyone is different and might not be the same for you, but for me it's been amazing and way less stressful.
