How soon to work??

I need help!! I'm due July 30th. Well I wanna sit home and be a full time mommy to my first born son. But in the other hand me and my best friend want to get a apartment together around December. My mother will be more than happy to babysitt while I work but my biggest concern is my son not having a strong bond with me if he is always in the presence of my mother and others. I want to keep this short so I'm going to stop there. Please help I need all advice and comments.

I worked 40+ hrs a wk from when my daughter was 5 wks old and on, she is now 5.  She is definitely a mommy's girl.  It's ok to work full time as long as the time you spend with your little one is quality time. She is always my lil helper with anything i do, so that makes us closer and shows her responsibility.
