For me, I can't imagine returning to work any time soon. I've never had more than an hour away from DD, for me, it would be awful to be away from my daughter, especially ending the exclusively BF relationship we have, as I'd have to pump and have others feed her. I feel lucky that DH has decided to take a few extra hours a night so that I don't have to return to work unless I want to. We don't have an expensive lifestyle (but live comfortably for a two adult one baby family), we have no credit cards or debts. We had two years of TTC to make sure we could afford a child and budget as if we had one already. DH has also moved up a lot in work in the last 12 months. I feel really grateful that I'm currently privileged enough to choose to stay home for as long as I'd like, but we're aware circumstances are ever-changing.
