Make sure the time you have at home with the baby is quality time. Save anything that needs to be done like bills, or picking up, until after the baby is asleep so you devote your full attention to it. Otherwise look into other work options, can you work part-time, if you communte, can you do something where this is less, or put in more time at home to save on travel time. Sometimes just travelling to a job can really cut into your day.

The best way to have your child bond with you is to be the one there the majority of the time. The only solution to this is quitting your job. It's perfectly natural for your baby to bond with his caregiver that he sees 8 plus hours a day, when he only sees you 2 or 3 and then sleeps the rest of the night away.

There isn't anything else you can do. Either get over it, or go home and be his mother.

What you are feeling is normal.

Just try to remind yourself that you are lucky to have in home help that is so good with your child.

Cherish the time that you do have with your child. Be ALONE with the child when you can. Create special rituals that only you two do, like you could do baby massage, or sing a special lullaby at night.

When they are infants, they are attached to whoever is feeding them - just like animals. As your child grows older he will be able to recognize that you are his mother and your bond will grow.

Well thats what happens when your baby doesnt see you for most of his waking hours. Didnt you take some maternity leave? I would suggest you ask for some time out from work, or possibly see if its something they would let you do at home.

You should try to spend as much quality time with your child as possible. Small children will show affection for a nanny they spend a lot of time with, but as the child gets older you'll realize s/he loves you much more than any non-parent.
