Don't feel guilty, there are alot of parents, birth or adoptive, that work. It doesn't matter if you do or not as long as you are a good parent and love your child.
I know plenty of SAHM's that don't show their kids the love and attention. (I am not against SAHM's, if you can afford it and love your child, go for it.) Sometimes when you work you know to spend the extra time with your child when you get the time. It is not quanity but quality that counts!!!!
Most adoptive parents are told to tell birthparents that they will be SAHM's even though they might not be after the adoption is final. Thinking this is a way to get birthparents to pick them. I feel honesty is the best this way everyone knows what is going on and you build a good relationship. Plus with money getting tight, more and more mothers are heading back to work.
Don't give up. Good luck.
