Hi Jessica. We send our daughter to day care three days a week for 
socialization because, unfortunately, there is no funding in our town 
for play groups or Mommy and Me groups. Kahlan loves day care! We live 
in Vermont and I don't know how it works from state to state, but we 
get child care subsidy, which means we only pay part of the cost 
because we're currently on SSI. Without the subsidy, it would be a 
hundred and fifty dollars a week. There are weeks when we have to pay 
even if she doesn't go. For example, we kept her home one week in the 
beginning of January because we were all sick. We still had to pay for 
that week because it was a week when the day care place was opened. 
That's the part I don't like about it, but that's the way the state, or 
maybe it's the feds, does things. I don't know if it's a state or 
federal thing that you have to pay even if the child doesn't go for a 
week. Hope this helps, and I hope you and your husband get to have your 
baby soon!
