Don't know what I'm hoping, but here's hoping!

Oh, good luck with it! I remember touring one daycare where a little boy was sleeping and they said he got dropped off at 6:30 am and picked up around 5 pm (his mom was a nurse). I was so depressed. But your hours will NOT be that bad and she'll enjoy meeting new people (eventually). You are NOT a bad mother for thinking about going back to work! (If I'm a little emphatic here, it's because I'm trying to reinforce myself - I got caught in a long line at the fabric store near carpool time and then got paged by a hospital while the kids were getting in the car, etc.)
