If I had my time over I would not have put my son into childcare until he was around 3 yrs old. It has only been recently that I really looked back on things and have seen what a huge stress childcare has added to our lives. The constant sicknesses, and resulting time off work, has put a huge amount of stress on me .. I hate been the 'slack mum' worker who always is having time off due to a sick child.

Don't be so hard on yourself, I'm sure you did and are doing your best. We all have things

I was actually more easy-going with my first.

She was a very easy baby and I worked full-time so she just kind of went with the flow.

When my youngest was born I was not working and I was a single parent - therefore he was pretty much the centre of my universe. I lived and breathed "baby" - reading charts, books, and hey, I even found EB!

Not sure what I would change though. If anything it would just be to not worry about all the endless amounts of baby "stuff". And try to last longer with breastfeeding which I think would have helped DS not get sick so often.
