Infant care or take care of baby yourself at home (FTM)

Hihi, I'm just wondering if there's any pros/cons in sending a newborn to infant care? Heard the infant care will teach and monitor development. Is that something do-able by yourself? Or will it be too challenging for a FTM? Are there a lot of things to teach a baby? What are the concerns of both options? For mummies who send baby to infant care or is the main caregiver at home, please feel free to share your experience. Thank you so much! #firsttimemom #AskingAsAnewMom #Needadvice

I sent my baby to ifc at 4 months, only because I was going back to work and there's no one to look after the baby. It is challenging to look after a baby for a FTM. I suggest hiring a confinement nanny to learn the basics, and going to prenatal courses to better prepare yourself (though nothing compares to the actual thing haha)
