I am sure it's really hard for you. My eldest and I were staying apart since he was 2 month old, as I was working in another city (about 200 km away) and my mother-in-law was taking care of him. I was told I would get used to it, but I would never get used to it. I went home every weekend, and I missed him so much when he was not with me. Of course, life went on, but it might because by I already started to plan to bring him back to me. I started to plan for working from home, as I don't really trust others to take care of him, and I really wanted to take care of him on my own. Finally, I quit my job when he was about 2 years old, and I stayed at home and took care of him full time. It might not be easy financially, as we suddenly became a single-income family, but I always think there's a will, there's a way. We can always sort it out when we want to. While taking care of my children, I try to look for online opportunities and also freelance projects. Also, I learned to live a simple life, which is even better for all of us. Do you think you can get a job nearby your home or work from home? Though my son likes spending time with my parents-in-law, he definitely loves to stay with me all the time. Hope you'll figure out a better way which is good for everyone soon. By the way, welcome to mylot! Hope you'll enjoy spending time here.

@nanachinese So you can bring your baby back to you very soon? It's good to know that. I didn't mean to encourage you to leave your job now, but you can plan for some other alternatives to make some money and take care of your baby at the same time. It took me about two years to save some money and plan for that. There are certainly ways to do so. I am still working now too (from home), though I don't earn much, I am happy to be with my children all the time.

I believe every woman is a great mother,both you and me. I am very moved by your words.But I can not leave my job now,my family do not allowed fanancially.If my new house is decoraed well,I can bring my baby back. Now I have an idea in my mind,if I have the second baby,I will not go to work no longer,I will take care of my baby fully based on my ideas.

Yes that is very tough situation. I have been living with my family since I got married and I understand how difficult it would be to live without them. I can't live without them.

That must be very hard for you as you will miss so much of your child's development. At least you are near enough to go home at weekends.

I do not have any children, so no I do not live with them. Why not switch jobs so you can be with your children?.
