Back to work update

Same! I’ve had to increase my anxiety medication as I was getting upset about silly things, but I know it’s related to leaving her. I know she’ll love nursery but I’d just rather not leave her!

@Amy Spend my days wishing I didn’t have to work :(

@Sophie watch the MLM huns come out of the woodwork now with their promises of endless income working from home 🙄

I’ve done 8 KIT days in June to get used to being back at work, my baby was at nursery 1 of those days and with her dad the other one. I was so anxious at the beginning and cried the first few days doing this (especially those when she was at nursery) but to be honest with you I feel a bit better now. I’ll return to work on the 18th of July and my baby will be going to the nursery 3 days/week. I am stressed about it but I know she’s having a good time and I appreciate and look forward to spend time with her even more now 💞 You’re doing an amazing job 🤍

I’m a residential worker so my job includes sleep-in meaning I’m away from my baby boy for 24hrs. I was dreading it but my first shift back was good fun so it was a massive distraction from missing him like hell. I still somewhat dread going into work but it does get easier. I’m only away from home 2-3 days each week so the other days I get to spoil him rotten. It’s nice having a break from mama duties though - I say this because I’m a single mum so everything falls on me. If I could have I would have stayed off a whole year x

I went back on the 10th of June, the first week was hard but manageable and now I actually love it) only gone back 3 days a week but really feel likes it’s given me more patience and a better mum when I am with him☺️

I went back in February. I was so upset before I went back and I found it so hard. I have got used to it now and although I wish I had more time with her, I really value the time that I do have and still feel an incredible bond with her. I'm sure the same will be true for you
