I just try to remember if I didn’t work we wouldn’t be able to afford this lifestyle. I focus on the moments we do get to spend together and making them special.
I’m a stay home mom with remote job, I’m with my son 24/7, I can’t begin to explain to you how draining and overwhelming that is. Don’t get me wrong I love him and I wouldn’t change my situation a bit, but to ease your guilt I’ll used my family as an example. My husband works full time sometime overtime on weekends and you should see the bond they have even though he sees him few hours a day and mostly for play time. Also me being overstimulated and over touched with time had an effect on my psychological health which also affects the child they feel mommy is not okay. So full time working mother shave that guilt off of yourself babies will love you as long as you spend those few hours with quality and have a stable mental, emotional and physical health, everything starts with you.
@Katie I hear you, I’m also a SAH remote mom. It is HARD.

🤚 went from PPD to mom guilt real fast. Feeling like I miss milestones or that he sees his grandma (she watches him while both his dad and I work) more than his parents. I’m honestly just trying to soak in every smile and milestone I AM there for. It’s hard but you can do this mama!
