Im NOT wanting to start a debate SAHM v's WM.
Im a sahm and have been since having dd over 3 years ago, I have since had ds (18 months) and this week I enrolled dd into preschool.
Reasons, to allow her more opportunity to be in an environment away from home to prepare her for school....
She is/will do 2 days a week and I decided on the time 9.30am - 3pm
I know its for her best interests but I can't help but feel bad .
I miss her although the time allows me to have more alone time with ds and also to do things that are easier with one than 2 iykwim.
I just feel bad, its not as though Im "working" so have to place her there and although im not as upset when I leave her I still constantly think about her and feel awful when I know she has been upset various time during the day (nothing major, standard tears...I want the toilet but won't go etc..)
I just wanted advice from others who are also not working and have/are doing the same...
I guess things will get easier...
