I’m a new graduate nurse and I’m also a new mom. My first 2 months are day shift but I will be transitioning to nights soon. I mentioned to my husband about having our child in daycare on the days I work so I can sleep. He called me selfish and that it wouldn’t be fair because he would have to get up during the night for feeds. My child is an excellent sleeper at night, and only wakes up 2-3 times to eat and then goes straight back to sleep, during the day however they will take short intermittent naps and is awake for a lot of the day. I just don’t know how I will handle working night shifts while also having to care for my child after a long 12 hour shift and having to work another 12 hours the next night. Is it selfish of me for wanting to put my child in daycare so I will be able to rest for work?
