I know this can be a heated issue and I don't want to start any debates. I was just wondering people's experiences with putting very young infants in daycare.
DH and I are going to start trying for a baby soon. We have always said that we'd like for me to stay home for a few years with our kids. I guess as the idea becomes more and more real, I'm having some reservations about quitting my teaching job.
I want to at least explore the option of day care, but DH is totally against it for an infant. (He is the main breadwinner, so him staying home is not an option). He wants to wait until the baby is 2 or 3 to put them in day care.
What are your experiences with daycare/being a stay at home mom? Is putting an infant in daycare so horrible?
