Returning to work

I’m due to go back in new years too. Honestly I’m optimistic. I’ve just come out of debt. I can now finally save if I put my head into it. I want to be able to spend freely with my baby as well. I know I’m gonna dread the part being away from my LO but knowing that she’s in safe hands helps. Also, since I’ll be working 4 days, the other three days, I know I can fully give her my attention. I’ll be able to plan more things for the days I’ll be with my LO. I just think it’ll be a win win in the long run. Hope you see it this way too. Also, these few weeks, just give her your everything! I’m trying here as well. Know you’re not alone

I hear you! It’s so difficult but I hope when it’s time to actually go, it won’t feel as bad! Just dreading it! But I’m sure we’ve got this (I hope)

This was literally me.. Started back a month ago & still a bit 🫤about it all.. It sucks but you'll get used to your new norm💖

I'm excited to have a little more financial freedom. Being at home has been really isolating so I'm hoping that going back will give me more sense of self. I do have the privilege that she will be watched by her grandparents so I feel like that's why I'm not too worried. I will hate the less time spent with her though. Like 2 days and then 2hrs each day after work doesn't seem like fun to me

I’m not gonna lie to you it might suck. I cried every time I dropped him off for the first week. I was an emotional wreck. HOWEVER, my daycare was super understanding and sent me updates and my coworkers knew how hard it was and were great at distracting me from it as well. And I can confidently say that now that my little is 14 months old it was the best thing ever. He gets so excited going to see all of his friends every day. You got this mamma ❤️

I was due to start a new job on the 7th. Baby is currently 8 months. I was getting myself so worked up / crying +++ ~ I’ve postponed the start date as I was too much of a mess 🥺
