Moms who are currently/recently on mat leave:

This question is for those of us who had thriving professional careers before going on maternity leave. Maybe you are middle management and above with a team you are responsible for. And maybe as soon as you began to bond with your baby you realized you couldn’t care less about your job anymore. All that matters is caring for your baby and seeing them grow and change and love you. The thought of daycare or a nanny seems scary and perhaps you’d take a hit to your lifestyle or “class level” just to be the primary caretaker. There’s nothing wrong with going back to work or daycare or a nanny, but for those of us questioning if going back is right for you (maybe unexpected!) let me know what you are thinking and going thru right now?
