<b><span style="color:#3B5998;"> @6372999217d2c800158d8bec </span></b> thank-you for the tag :-) <span style="color:#3B5998;"> @63734a02d28b060015d986b4 </span> this is a tough call dude. I am sure you are in a fix yourself so a big hug to you. as many people said, you do need to prioritize. Also realize that this time with your baby is something you will never get back after your baby grows up. You might really miss these moments later on. If you talk to your HR I am sure they will be able to help you out. You can hire a maid and see if you have work from home. That way even if you have to do a night shift, it is still manageable because you will always be available for the baby.&#160; Else even when you are at work in your office you will be constantly worried about your baby. Think about the <u>worst</u> case scenario for yourself- you will have to quit. Say you do, but trust me dude, if you keep yourself updated with the field you are working in, I am sure you will be able to get a good job later on. Once the baby is not so dependent on you, then you can leave her with someone you trust. But the first year is a crucial period I feel, especially as you say there is no one at home who can look after the baby in your absence. Another thing is, if you are on night shift then in the day you have to look after the baby, which means you won't really get much time to rest. That will also affect your health. So think this through and ask questions to yourself if it is really worth the stress you are going through. If it is financially viable to you and your family to be on one person's salary for a few years, then you can take a break for a little time and then be up and about :-) Who knows, you might end up using this time to start something of your own too! Enjoy these moments that you have now. Take care and I hope you will be able to find a solution that works for you and your family&nbsp; :*

this is a very big decision tht will have an impact not only on ur baby but your emotions n ur relationship with ur husband. leaving such a young baby through the night-' it's a huge thing. u need to decide ur priorities. when both things need ur time, one will have to be placed over the other. u nur hubby need to talk over this. finding a maid is one thing, training n entrusting ur baby with her is another story.
